How our smoking solution works

Cleaning smoke is a difficult task. As soon as it mixes with the air in the room it can no longer be captured. The only possibility then is to thin it out through ventilation. Although this does reduce the amount of smoke in the air, the smell often remains and the air is polluted. In other words, it is practically impossible to achieve an effective cleaning process through ventilation – the air in most smoking rooms makes this clearly evident.

Smoke Free Systems applies a completely different principle:

Step 1: Capturing the smoke

For the smoke to be captured effectively three conditions must be fulfilled:

• The smoker must stand close to the smoke intake.
• The smoke zone must be aerodynamically designed.
• The air circulation rate must be very high.

If the smoker fulfils the first condition, our smoking solution takes care of the other two.

Step 2: Filtering the hazardous gases

The tobacco smoke is cleaned in the effective filter system, especially designed for this purpose. This removes 99.9995% of the particles that are the most harmful for humans to inhale. This is in the same class as clinically clean areas with regard to air quality. The gases are cleaned 100% in Smoke Free Systems’ patented charcoal filter.

Step 3: Increasing safety

Our unique fireproof Ash Handling System (AHS) ensures safe disposal of ash and cigarette ends. As well as dealing with the smell it also eliminates any risk of fire. Having undergone rigorous testing, the system is now recommended by the Swedish National Testing and Research Institute. It has even been tested to assess how it would perform in the event of sabotage or arson and even in such extreme circumstances the system has proved to be incredibly safe.
