A 200-bed community paired continuous dispensing with targeted chemistry. Staff stopped chasing odors and family-visit feedback improved.
A class-A office property cut perceived restroom odor issues to near zero with a continuous program tuned to occupancy patterns.
Most persistent restroom odor comes from drain lines, dry traps, and grout rather than from fixtures, so it returns quickly after cleaning. Luften doses drains and treats air continuously with output tuned to your traffic pattern, which keeps restrooms neutral through peak hours without extra janitorial rounds.
Usually a dry or damaged floor-drain trap, or biofilm inside the drain line generating hydrogen sulfide. Luften identifies which one it is during the walkthrough and treats the line directly, because fragrance and cleaning cannot reach that source.
Yes. The chemistry is non-caustic and will not etch stone, pit chrome, or discolor grout, which matters in hotel and Class-A office restrooms where finishes are part of the brand.
We'll spec a program for your fixture count, traffic, and finishes.
