I have so many questions….how, how….just ????how?

Jennifer Ryan Could have been a stove fire smoke sucked in through the return and circulated out. We’ve had that happen.

Bethany McGuire Jennifer Ryan maybe, but there no smoke smell also no fires have ever been reported

Nikki Summers Bethany McGuire if it’s been there a while might not smell anymore??? But my guess is incense or the cheapest candles you can find

Jamie Jennings Lots of candle usage.

Guest Insider They are very heavy candle burners sheesh

Shannon Berry Following out of curiosity!

Tina Asher Candles. For sure

Bethany McGuire Tina Asher no waxy residue no candle smells…

Tina Asher Bethany McGuire if they are prayer candles there would be no smell or wax. But they put out a lot of soot

Sally Henkel Bethany McGuire smoking meth or crack?

Guest Insider Implement quarterly inspections.

Guest Insider Geesh this is actually really bad. Like maybe candle burning but that would have to be literally all day every day? The carpet really shows how bad it is.

Guest Insider The cleaning lady on TikTok has said when she sees units like this it’s due to heavy candle use

Guest Insider Looks like they had a fire! That’s smoke damage

Guest Insider Definitely candles. We included no burning of candles in our smoke free addendum. It can be so damaging.

Guest Insider If the air filter is black then it’s candles

Jose Maciel A fire would have smoke on a top portion of the walls, I don't see candels making that much soot...Did the not have furniture, or nothing touching the floor except that one round spot??? How in the hell would anything be everywhere unless it was intentional? All I can think of is ground up charcoal sprinkled everywhere and the feed into the return air...

Jose Maciel Is there a smoke or other smell in the unit?

Guest Insider Looks like someone was using a Kerosene heater

Guest Insider I once had a tenant who said she was "doing a black spray paint project" in her dining room and it looked like this all over everything.

Guest Insider church candles, specifically.

Guest Insider Candles. Lots of candles.

Guest Insider This is why candles are gross...

Guest Insider This is mold. When they wash clothes and dry them inside. Air doesn't circulate under the bed or where big pieces of furniture are. By the vents since its colder it stays humid longer. I have seen this in my properties mostly residents from other countries that are used to wash by hand.

Guest Insider Furnace issue

Guest Insider Candles

Lori Segura I've had this happen if they use plug in air freshers as well, not just candles will do this. especially if they don't clean their filters on their mini splits.

Guest Insider Looks like black dye. Does it come clean if you spot clean a part of it?

Guest Insider Looks like they tried to spray paint the fan, got some on the carpet and then tried to spray it to cover it up.

Guest Insider Dont we all know!?! They left the apt the exact same way they received it!!!

Guest Insider Charcoal grill for cooking heating.

Rosa Duarte Mold? Candles? Burning something for sure

Guest Insider Either candles or they had a n oven/stove fire that smoked up the home. Fun times in property management!

Guest Insider Incense

Bethany McGuire Chandler Rooks there was no smell though! It did have slight smell of cleaning products/pet urine. But no smoke smell at all! It’s so strange

Guest Insider I had a resident who’s unit looked like this. She admitted to having those spiritual and religious candles all over her apartment with the votives. It’s any candle in glass jars that give off lots of soot.

Tracy Jamison A.LOT.OF CANDLES.

Guest Insider Candle soot

Andrea Pearce I came across these pics and thought this was a marketplace posting for a room rental and the poor person didn’t understand photography

Jessica Peacock Okay I burn candles everyday in my home of 3 years I would say I light 8 a night I have never seen this happen

Guest Insider It’s residue from burning incense.
