Smoke-Free Environments Law Project Smoke-free apartment buildings are becoming the wave of the future and their numbers are increasing virtually daily. As the serious health effects of environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), or secondhand smoke, have become better understood, the seepage of ETS into apartments and condominiums has emerged as a growing area of controversy for tenants and building owners alike. Clearly, virtually all tenants find secondhand smoke which enters their residence from their neighbors to be an annoyance and a discomfort, but for some persons it is also a cause of serious illness or the precipitant of significant health problems. For landlords or condominium associations, the issue of ETS seepage creates unwanted concerns and tensions, but also potential legal and liability problems, as evidenced by the increasing number of lawsuits resulting from these situations.
