Non-smoking Apartments in St. Louis

Can you recommend a non-smoking apartment in St. Louis or St. Louis County? The closer to Clayton, the better.
We currently live in the Dorchester. We were told when we signed the lease that smoking was allowed on the balconies but not in the units. Unfortunately, that turned out not to be the case, and smoke now comes in through the vents on a regular basis.
Given our past experience, we need a place that has a firm non-smoking clause in the lease contract. Community norms and leasing office promises are insufficient.

Response by poster: Well, we did find a couple but they were out of our price range. I think we're probably going to either cover the vents or wire up fans to force air outward to prevent anything from coming in.

That said, you might simply want to look for apartments that don't have ventilation systems that are shared with neighboring apartments. My guess is that this kind of apartment would tend to be older construction rather than newer.
