The Manufactured Housing Forums

I am looking at purchasing a 2002 Fleetwood Entertainer but am concerned that the current owners smoke. Can you ever really get rid of the cigarette smell completely?

Yes, but it takes work ($) to clean all windows thoroughly, clean carpets, and scrub or paint walls. I'd want $1-2K off the price to have that done.

I Found that when I purchased this house the previous people were heavy smokers and they smoked heavily, I used spic and span to wash all the walls down 1600 sq ft was not easy trust me!! then I had the carpets profesionally cleaned and deoderized that really helped. I brought in several air cleaners and placed them around the house while I was working on it. Dont forget to clean the furnace and ducts change the filter also. This will help. Kraig

There is a spray product called Ozium (do a web search to order it) that will help to eliminate the smell. Personally, I'd buy a different house!
