@Ferny Espinoza, vaping still contain nicotine, it is still a habit. Your tenant guest might be smoker and might light up a cig for old time sake. Enforce your NO SMOKING POLICY. Your unit hopefully will not need changing of carpets, window treatment and double or triple coats paint. $$$$$

@Steven Fowler, I bet your evaporator coil was clog with dust and if they have any pets with pet hair. The evaporator coil must be clean of any obstacle, this way the air will flow. If there is no air flow, you have a frozen evaporator coil. Your a/c will not work properly and the temperature in the home will raise. This type of job is costly. Must keep your filter clean at all times. Maintenance, maintenance,maintenance, is the key.
