Why Luften

An engineered program, not a spray bottle

Engineered Chemistry

Purpose-built formulations that neutralize odor and break down FOG at the source — no perfume masking.

Solves Root Cause

We treat what's actually causing the smell — chutes, drains, pits, corridors — not the air on top of it.

Automated Dosing

Metered 24/7 dispensing sized to your facility. No manual pours, no missed rooms.

Fewer Emergencies

Preventative programs cut backups, pump-outs, and after-hours complaint calls.

Monthly Service

Local Luften techs handle refills, checks, and reporting — the program runs itself.

Trusted by Leaders

Deployed across hotels, high-rises, senior living, healthcare, and commercial portfolios.

Technology

Not enzymes. Advanced encapsulation technology.

Unlike traditional enzyme treatments, Luften utilizes an oxygen-enhanced encapsulation process designed to help break down fats, oils, and grease while reducing adhesion to pumps, floats, sidewalls, and collection lines.

Two Solutions for Lift Stations

Choose the fix that matches your problem

Odor is a symptom. FOG buildup — fats, oils, and grease — is the root cause of most overflows and pump failures. We offer a service for each.

Luften Lift Station Max

Breaks down & encapsulates FOG

Our patented encapsulation system — purpose-built for sewer ejector pits and lift stations. Attacks fats, oils, and grease at the source so engineers stop chasing overflows, cesspool call-outs, and pump failures.

  • Prevents FOG accumulation & blockages
  • Protects pumps & reduces service calls
  • Eliminates odor as a byproduct
Targeted Service

Lift Station Odor Elimination

Neutralizes odor only

When the smell is the problem — not the pump. Vapor-phase neutralization designed for sewer gases (H₂S, methane) at the source. Odor is gone; FOG stays as-is.

  • Neutralizes H₂S & sewer odors
  • Lower-cost, faster deployment
  • Does not treat FOG buildup

Common questions

Scenting & odor control, answered

How do luxury hotels make their lobbies smell so good?

Luxury hotels use automated, cold-air HVAC scent diffusers paired with a custom ambient fragrance, dosed continuously so the scent reads as part of the building instead of a spray. Luften designs, installs, and maintains these commercial scent systems for lobbies, hotels, and residential buildings across NYC and New Jersey.

How do I make my building lobby smell like a hotel?

Start by removing competing odors from the trash chute, compactor bay, and drain lines, then add metered cold-air diffusion sized to the lobby's volume and door-cycle rate. Luften handles both halves — odor elimination at the source and a signature scent at the entrance — on one monthly program.

How can property managers eliminate trash chute and basement odors?

Sprays, fans, and ozone machines only mask smells temporarily. Luften installs 24/7 automated oxygen-enhanced encapsulation systems inside trash chutes, compactor bays, and basement pits so odors are neutralized at the source before reaching hallways or lobbies. Free installation, a free trial, and monthly servicing — no long-term contract.

Do you require a contract?

No. Every building starts with a free walkthrough, free installation, and a free trial in your worst-smelling location. After that the program is month-to-month.
