Question
Recently I had a problem with my flue and my little tiny house totally filled up with smoke.  I have opened windows and doors and left them open for 4 hours at a time but it is cold here at this time of year so I can't leave the windows open longer than that and definitely not at night.  Is there a product I could use that would eliminate the smoke odor....not just temporarily mask it?  Thanks so much!

Answer
Hello Deirdre, I would have a local Certified Chimney Sweep (www.csia.org, there you can look up by zip code to find one near you) take a first hand look at what you have. It sounds like a negative pressure they will be able to help diagnose it.
