Smoke-Free apartments in Chicago, Illinois United States

ASHRAE is the governing board for all air filtration systems in the United States.

From the President of ASHRAE, Lee W. Burgett

“In response to your letter of February 7, 2006, I have consulted with some of the authors of ASHRAE’s “Position Document on Environmental Tobacco Smoke.” You are correct in noting that in apartments and condos smoke can travel from one space to another and that separate HVAC systems may not eliminate such smoke transport.

“Typical practice in many buildings doesn’t meet the tightness criterion.”

The Board of Directors for ASHRAE June, 2005

“…no ventilation or air filtration technologies … can completely eliminate the health risks caused by secondhand smoke exposure, …”

“…(AHSRAE) encourages elimination of smoking in the indoor environment as the optimal way to minimize ETS exposure.”

"But now God has shown us a different way to heaven - not by "being good enough" and trying to keep his laws, but by a new way (though not new, really, for the Scriptures told about it long ago). Now God says he will accept and acquit us - declare us "not guilty" - if we trust Jesus Christ to take away our sins. And we all can be saved in this same way, by coming to Christ, no matter who we are or what we have been like. Yes, all have sinned; all fall short of God's glorious ideal; yet now God declares us "not guilty" of offending him if we trust in Jesus Christ, who in his kindness freely takes away our sins." Romans 3:21-24 Living Bible
