Where Can I Find A Smoke Pencil Or A Smoke Stick. It Is An Electronic Or Chemical Puffer Device.?
July 23rd, 2009 • Related • Filed Under
Home energy raters and energy auditors and HVAC guys use the smoke sticks or smoke pencil puffers to find drafts in homes and in HVAC vents. I want to use one around my home to locate the bad weatherstripping and windows that need to be replaced.
Note: I don’t want to be picky but PLEASE don’t tell me to use a cigarette or incense stick. I don’t want the smell from those in my house and I know the smoke tool that HVAC guys used has no smell so i am looking for a specific device.
WTF?! Show a complete geek idiot smoking your product and hope people will buy?
You need a lesson in marketing!

Jerry, You are correct it is called a smoke pencil and some HVAC guys call it a smoke puffer. You can buy an inexpensive one online for about $25. Here is a link to one http://www.chimneyballoon.us/smokepencil…
This one is electronic but some are chemical.
I think the smoke is a water and glycol mix that smells a little sweet but is not lingery like incense or a cigarette.

Great answer Half
I was not aware of that product TY
cigarettes and incence are not as heavy of a smoke that the puffers we use are and are hard to see. You are right to avoid them
I use the retrotec product
