An Air Freshener got sucked into my air return!
Comments (4)Not to big of a deal - it might get all the way in the blower wheel and you will have to remove it. The worst thing is it could get stuck in the duct and you hear it flapping but is not going to affect the equipment....See MoreRecommendations for a Good Air Freshener?
Comments (30)I asked my sister in law today what the scent of the one I am using is and she said it has patchouli notes. It is very light scented. If I was buying it I would go for the lemon scented one. The link I posted lists all the scents for the lampe berger. When the odour in this house became unbearable at times I simmered some cinnamon and a cut up apple in a pot on the stove and did that everyday. There is also another product you can get from a janitorial supply company, called Air Lift. I bought another product by the same company called Consume from a janitorial supply company that you water down into a spray bottle and it eats up anything biological and leaves a nice vanilla scent. You have to rinse or vacuum the area after letting the stuff do its job....See MoreIdeas for HVAC Air Freshener
Comments (9)Our condo board is attempting to make the entire property smoke-free. There are very few people who would vote against this, but it's hard to get people motivated enough to vote on anything. We need a 2/3 majority to pass the bylaws change. The condo board was able to do some things without a bylaws change. No smoking is now allowed outside anywhere on the property, with the exception of a few designated benches that are placed as far from the buildings as they can be. Only four of 316 condo units are currently owned by smokers. They may continue to smoke, but only indoors. The bylaws change would grandfather in the current smokers, but a new owner would not be permitted to smoke indoors. What does your board tell you about passing some new smoking regulations? Perhaps they could pass a regulation that doesn't permit smoking outside....See MoreFluff post: do you use those Renuzit or Glade air freshener solids?
Comments (59)a whole lot of scented things bother me - physically. my sister uses the plug in scent things. everything she sends to me smells like it. If it's clothes, i have to wash them or hang them outside for several days. even non cloth things smell like it. I can't use (or be around where it is used) Windex or Lysol. I had to walk right back out of Target one day - as I walked in, I passed a check out lane where the clerk was cleaning her counter with Windex. I felt it instantly and left. I use to wear White Diamonds, then one day, I couldn't anymore - or even be around those who do. A girl in the office started using it and we had to ask her not to anymore at work. If caused my throat to close up. As did one of those 'hang in the car' things. I bought one for my car (yrs ago) with a coconut scent (which I like) but when I sat in my car reading the newspaper (outside the laundromat), my throat started closing up - it kept getting worse... and I was about to panic when i saw that thing (new) hanging on the mirror. Being the only thing new to me and my car, I took it off and threw it outside the car and left my car door open. It took a few minutes, but my throat began to release and I was ok. Never again! I buy scent free Kleenex (puffs) and detergent (Arm and Hammer). When i went to the laundromat, I had to use scent free dryer sheets - sometimes they were hard to find in stores around me. I'm very careful with cleaners, lotions, soaps, shampoo etc. In a way, it's a really a sad thing to be afflicted with... in another way, it's really a warning to us... a red flag to pay close attention to....See Moreblubird
