Tobacco smoke was filling the air and creating a visible haze at this small Mississippi bar. One cost-efficient CleanLeaf OX1100, mounted above the fireplace, cleared it completely without disrupting the atmosphere.
33 Roadhouse is a small bar in Crosby, Mississippi, facing a common challenge for hospitality venues: tobacco smoke filling the air and creating a visible haze that affected air quality for patrons and staff alike.
Fixing it wasn't as simple as installing anything that filters air. As an independent operator, the owners needed a solution that stayed cost-efficient without breaking the budget, operated quietly enough to avoid disrupting conversations and ambiance, and required minimal space so it wouldn't distract patrons from their experience.
Finding that balance — effective smoke removal without compromising the bar's welcoming feel — was the real challenge.
CleanLeaf OX1100 — formerly branded as Blue Ox Air Cleaners — was installed to eliminate cigarette smoke and odors from the bar. One unit, strategically mounted above the fireplace along the far wall, was enough to provide comprehensive coverage for the entire space.
The OX1100 uses a Straight-Thru airflow pattern, pulling air through high-efficiency filters and exhausting it through a grill and fan on the opposite side for efficient smoke and odor removal.
It's built specifically for cigarette and tobacco smoke removal in confined or smaller spaces, running quietly while its micro-glass fiber filters capture particulate that would otherwise hang in the air as visible haze.

The single OX1100 unit proved powerful enough to transform the bar environment. Smoke haze was completely removed from the air, and overall air quality improved noticeably throughout the venue.
Just as important for a small, independent bar, the unit's quiet operation kept the welcoming atmosphere intact, and its discreet installation above the fireplace meant no lost floor space and no distraction for patrons — all at a cost that fit the budget.
One strategically placed unit delivered exactly what 33 Roadhouse needed: clean air without compromising the bar experience.

Delivers powerful smoke removal in a compact package, ideal for bars, pubs, and small hospitality venues where space is at a premium.
