High-rise eliminates trash chute odors building-wide
An 18-story residential tower deployed Luften's automated odor program at the chute and trash room. Within 30 days resident complaints dropped to a handful per quarter.
Smoke and cannabis odors travel through walls, vents, and corridors. Luften neutralizes them at the source instead of masking.

Real facilities. Real numbers. See how Luften's automated programs delivered measurable outcomes.
An 18-story residential tower deployed Luften's automated odor program at the chute and trash room. Within 30 days resident complaints dropped to a handful per quarter.
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.
Cannabis odor is carried by heavy terpenes and resin that bind to fabric, paint, and HVAC surfaces, so it has to be oxidized and neutralized rather than covered. Luften treats the unit and its air path, then keeps corridors under continuous neutralization so drift between units and floors stops recurring.
Yes. Drift travels through corridors, chases, and shared ventilation, so Luften treats those paths with continuous corridor dosing and, where needed, HVAC-integrated units. That is what turns a repeat complaint into a resolved one instead of a per-incident cleanup.
No. Fragrance sits on top of smoke odor and fades in hours, and it often makes complaints worse because residents smell both. Neutralization chemistry chemically reacts with the odor compounds, which is why the result holds between service visits.

Guest-room turnovers, corridor drift, licensed retail and cultivation — a purpose-built neutralization program for cannabis terpenes and resin. Not fragrance masking.
