How 'bout your existing furnace with an electrostatic air cleaner?

I have that, but my it still sucks the smell of cigar into the house. The burners come after the electrostatic unit and hepa filters.
Besides, I'm talking about smoking in my garage, and the furnace doesn't heat that space so well.

Then, I'll return to my original suggestion of a heat recovery ventilator which adds air changes with outside but saves the heat. After that, add whatever additional heat with a gas or electric space heater.

you need IONS (you can literally watch it cut a swath through the smoke in front of it). Ozone can be used to eliminate the odor, but its a gradual thing. If you want it to work faster, you can turn it up and leave the room. Its the exact same stuff that a lightning storm generates, and is one of the reasons the air smells to "clean" afterwards... but in high doses its not so good for ya, so just step out of the room if your gonna turn it up.

I’m on an ion free diet right now. I read on the internet that too many ions makes you fat. Two years without ions and I’m down 3lbs., so it’s working.

I use the snoke air purifier, it helps a lot, because my wife also not that happy with my cigar aroma, that's why I use it. I may recommend you a review about few models on

To clean out the smoke cloud, you need IONS (you can literally watch it cut a swath through the smoke in front of it). Ozone can be used to eliminate the odor, but its a gradual thing. If you want it to work faster, you can turn it up and leave the room. Its the exact same stuff that a lightning storm generates, and is one of the reasons the air smells to "clean" afterwards... but in high doses its not so good for ya, so just step out of the room if your gonna turn it up.
(and when you get tired of odor anywhere else in your life, just plug that machine in. Friend was recently selling his car, but couldnt get a VERY entrenched dog smell out of it. 36 hours with the windows up and that machine plugged in and the car smelled like it came from a dealer)
That machine on ebay seems to have it all, and for a damned cheap price if it works as good as the $400-$700 units I've used and check review. Go for it, there is NO better solution.
its best
