Weed smoke coming in from next door neighbor

Daniel Suarez

Hey All, 

One of my tenants complained that the new next door neighbor (not a tenant of mine or anything) smokes a  lot of weed and that the smoke is getting in the house when they leave the AC on so it's been a nightmare for theme these past couple of days.

Any ideas what to do in this case?

Tell them to walk over and talk to their neighbor. Seriously, tenants often seem to forget that they as adults can handle issues themselves.

Also, the AC system has no physical air exchange with the outside. As in, the refrigerant transfer from outside to inside is never exposed to air...so there is no physical way that the AC is bringing the smell in. That's not to say it isn't getting in, but it certainly isn't getting in through the AC.
