Just had a question from prospective tenant about vaping in the apartment. We have no smoking policy. They were arguing with me since vaping doesn't leave a trail & dissipates. Of course I am not going to rent to someone who is already challenging me and my rules. Just wondering if anyone has encountered this?

Uncommon information, vaping does leave residue on walls and other surfaces, simple kitchen faucet water wipe test with a white towel - don't get fancy with this or that solvent, just wipe the wall with a towel, you could ask to wipe the inside of a car window and then explain in the house it costs 250-300 per room to seal/prime/refinish each room, how much deposit can you collect - I always go double plus pet fees, seldom does a smoker get back anything with the accounting statement... --76.188.xxx.xx

interesting. had not thought about that. I am a smoker. vaping is just another way of smoking. I do need to amend my rules (no smoking in houses) --104.218.xxx.xx

I've had a few ask about it. I know some people who do vape and been around it. I know it's not like "smoke." Here in ID it's considered smoking so it's ok to say no vaping. Just never ran into it unit this vacancy.. Good info from everyone. thanks --160.3.xxx.xxx

As a vaper, I'm rather indifferent about it. Yes, there is a cloud of vapor, but since it's moisture, it settles to the ground rather quickly and it doesn't linger like smoke. It doesn't have an unpleasant odor and I haven't noticed a discoloring film in my house or windshield like smoking cigarettes does.

I'd rather have vapor than smoke any day.

Don't believe the hype about batteries exploding. I've only heard of two cases. If you're going to ban them due to exploding batteries, may I suggest you also ban Samsung phones. They're far more dangerous. --108.69.xxx.xxx

Vaping does not leave residue on the walls like smoking does, it turns into a fine dust. A wipe test won't show anything if they really are just vaping and not also smoking. Burning candles or having a fireplace will make the walls much dirtier. I would still not rent to someone who plans on smoking/vaping indoors. --73.158.xxx.xxx

I asked the guy who owns a vape shop. He said there are many types of vaping substance and some do leave a residue.

His shop smelled really good like rasberry so “something” is hanging around his shop somwe’re back again to left over odors.
