Point taken, Nero. I have one of those washable filters but haven't needed to wash it yet so I hope it works out okay.NeroWolfe":d7p1lycy said:I use an air purifier as well. When I purchased it I also checked out the cost of replacement filters. Some of the filters cost almost as much as the purifier itself! Also, filters can be hard to find for older models. I found a good price on replacement filters for my purifier online a few years ago, and bought about ten to stash away. Some purifiers have washable filters, and some have both a washable filter and a replaceable filter.
I suppose that's one issue you can't get around if you smoke a pipe. Your shirts will smell a bit. Maybe we should all get one of those smoking jackets as they had back in the day! :cheers:forsooth":ngft9ao5 said:I'm an outside pipe smoker, and it has been a <<very>> hot summer.
I would mention that there was a Youtube video in which the presenter had gone to great lengths to keep his clothes, etc., totally separate from his indoor smoking so that they wouldn't pick up the aroma, and he only smoked in the evenings. He thought that this was working just fine. However, at work a female colleague won some award and it was hugs all around. When it came time to hug this gentlemen, she remarked, "You always smell like an old pipe, but I'll hug you anyway!" He was shocked.
I liken it to cigarette smoking. It seems (to me) you can almost always tell if someone has had a cigarette -- gum, perfume, cologne, etc., don't seem to make that much difference.
Obviously, this is not the case for you, and the Youtube guy did not specifically mention using an air purifier.
Good tip, Craig. Never thought of Air Wick. I wonder whether it's cheaper than the candle I bought. Yes, life is much easier when SWMBO is happy!choch":61au4ul2 said:John,
I have a Honeywell QuietCare 17000 Purifier that I keep set between my chair and my Wife's. With the purifier set on a higher setting, she can hardly even smell the smoke from my pipe. I spray some Lysol and/or NeutrAir around the room at the end of the night to keep things fresh. I also sometimes burn an Air Wick lavender scented candle in the room as well, which helps too. We've got to keep SWMBO happy after all!

I think I would look dapper in a silk jacket on my porch puffing away, (what do you say Heff olde boy?).
Hi! no I haven't been there yet. I do want to take a drive there one of these days. They're about 1-1.5 hours from me.Airborne":7x4i3l3k said:Being in up state NY, do you ever go to Park Lane or Cup o' Joe's?
