I converted a small one car garage into a man-cave, so I can watch sports and smoke a cigar...it has AC and I'm gonna install an in-line ceiling fan to pull the smoke out when I close the doors because it's too hot or cold outside.

If I'm not watching TV and want a cigar, I'll smoke outside in the back patio...unless it's too windy...then I'll sit in the front patio that has a small sitting area surrounded by three walls...

don't like to smoke inside the house...

Hmm, looking like someone else has resurrected my post from January and given it a new title. Here in the Pacific Northwest, I have a smoking ensemble. If we dip down below 20 degrees, I probably will have to fire up my outdoor fire pit, but other than that I smoke on my front porch, in a nice rocker. Lol

Sounds comfortable. Didn't meant to resurrect your post -- wasn't even on this site in January, but thanks for jumping in with some advice and perspective!

I’ve had the honor of smoking in Al’s man cave. Good times. Can’t wait to do it again. Perhaps with Frankie Tripod next time.

If smoking inside is likely to lead to divorce.....maybe its time to plop down on the living room couch and light up.....something with a relatively high VSU

I smoke on deck time to time but 90% plus of cigars are smoked in my garage. My garage has a TV with surround sound (Man cave) and I work in there also. I am renting this house and the garage is the first floor. You have to walk up a set of stair to get to front door to enter the main floor of the house. This garage is a two car garage but it doesn't have a side door. I have to enter and exit through the two car garage door only. This creates a problem when smoking and the door is closed because the garage is filled with smoke. I do have a propane heater I use during the winter keep the garage warm.

Any ideas on how to pump the smoke out and not all the heat?

Sounds like a good start for a SoCal Sunshine Herf here in Corona CA...besides the man-cave, we can soak in the spa/jacuzzi and if the weather is warm/hot, take a dip in the pool. I can fire up the grill or start the smoker after filling it with cuts and slabs of meat. MACS can be relied upon to bring a cooler full of top-notch brews and Opel has a corner on the salsas...

let's gitter done...

if there is attic space above the ceiling you can install an in-line extractor fan (similar to a bathroom exhaust fan) to pull the smoke out...

A HEPA air cleaner helps, preferably with a CPZ filter too but it's not mandatory. HEPA and its activated charcoal prefilter takes out all the particulates and some of the smell, CPZ takes out some of the gasses and nearly all the rest of the smell.

Not as good as blowing the smoke completely outside, but features zero heat loss.

What might be good is a combo. Draw in a smaller amount of fresh air, exhaust a smaller amount of smoky air, and use HEPA or HEPA/CPZ as a supplement. Minimizes heat loss.

The Honeywell standalone HEPA air cleaners are my favorite. Plop them on the floor in any room and just plug them in. No installation, ducting, etc. They're quiet and they work very, very well against cigar smoke.

They also eliminate essentially all of the dust, mold spores, pet dander, and all other particulates and many gasses from the air that goes through them, making them great for allergy sufferers.
