Thanks ladies!
My microwave is installed over my stove and there is an exhaust fan built into it, with a carbon filter because there's no vent to the outside. I don't like to use it because it's very loud and does something to the air flow/temperature that makes the heat pump run more than is necessary. So I'm looking into getting a tabletop air purifier -- there's one from Holmes that can use several different filters, including one with charcoal and baking soda. I'm hoping that it won't be as loud, and that if I put it farther away from the kitchen doorway the air flow won't cause problems.
I'm also going to get some charcoal-in-a-bag deodorizers to put in various rooms. I"m also intrigued by the idea of charcoal filters inside the HVAC ducts, but I worry that lessen the air flow through the ducts. I'll ask the HVAC guys when they come to do the fall maintenance on the system.
While I was researching these products, I found this recipe for a homemade odor-neutralizing spray. I'm going to try it out.
"Mix one teaspoon of baking soda with one teaspoon of white vinegar. Then add two cups of water to that, and decant the solution into a fine mist spray bottle. This should neutralise odours as opposed to simply masking the scent with a different scent. This mixture can be used on water safe fabric and carpets."
