How long does a full tank last on a Vaayu? A 400ml Vaayu tank lasts up to about 75 days depending on how intensely and how many hours a day you run it. This is the one verified consumption figure - exact timing varies with your settings, so treat roughly 2 to 2.5 months as a planning guide, not a guarantee.
Does refill frequency change with the setting? Yes - intensity and daily hours are the two levers. A moderate setting on daytime store hours sips through a tank slowly (closer to 75 days), while a high setting running all day empties it sooner. Your real cadence is confirmed once you see how you run it.

Facts verified August 2026 (SOSA Vaayu product page): The Vaayu is a waterless cold-air diffuser priced at ₹11,999 (one-time), and each machine ships with four SOSA Hotel Collection fragrance oils of 100ml each (400ml total, about one full tank). It atomises alcohol-free, water-free fragrance oil into a dry nano-mist covering up to 1000m3 (about 2000 to 3000 sq ft), has a 400ml refillable tank that lasts up to about 75 days depending on the intensity setting and daily run hours, offers 1h/4h/8h/24h timers and Bluetooth app control, and runs under 38dB. The main recurring cost is fragrance oil; electricity is minimal on a low-power cold-air atomiser. SOSA does NOT publish a fixed monthly running-cost figure because it depends on intensity, hours, space and refill size chosen - the exact monthly cost, refill cadence, refill sizes and prices, bulk machine pricing, lead times and any multi-location fragrance-supply plan are confirmed on a quotation, and there is no compulsory subscription or lock-in. Larger spaces use the Angaan (₹25,999, ~8,000-10,000 sq ft) or Meenar (₹38,500, ~12,000-18,000 sq ft). A signature scent enhances a premium space and works alongside good service; SOSA makes no claim that scent alone increases sales, conversions or footfall. Hotel-inspired scents are SOSA's own original interpretations; SOSA is independent and not affiliated with any hotel. Prices and availability are subject to change - see the live product pages.
Businesses expect to be topping up a scent machine constantly, so the honest answer is a pleasant surprise: a full tank runs for weeks, and refilling is an occasional job, not a daily one.
Quick answers — read this first
How often does a commercial scent machine need refilling? Less often than most people expect. A SOSA Vaayu has a 400ml tank that lasts up to about 75 days depending on the intensity setting and daily run hours. At typical store hours that works out to roughly a refill every 2 to 2.5 months - lower intensity or shorter hours stretch it further, higher intensity or all-day running uses it faster.How long does a full tank last on a Vaayu?

The short answer
Short answer: a SOSA Vaayu 400ml tank lasts up to about 75 days depending on intensity and hours, so at typical store hours you refill roughly every 2 to 2.5 months - less at high intensity, more at low.
The numbers we can state: SOSA Vaayu ₹11,999 one-time (ships with 400ml oil, about one full tank); covers up to 1000m3 (about 2000-3000 sq ft); a 400ml tank lasts up to ~75 days depending on intensity and hours. Larger floors: Angaan ₹25,999, Meenar ₹38,500.

In this guide
Commercial scenting has a simple cost shape: a one-time machine, then fragrance oil as the main recurring cost, plus minimal electricity. The SOSA Vaayu is ₹11,999 and ships with 400ml of oil (about one full tank); a 400ml fill lasts up to about 75 days depending on the intensity setting and how many hours a day it runs, so refills are occasional rather than constant. Exact monthly fragrance cost, bulk machine pricing and multi-location supply depend on your settings and scale, and are confirmed on a quotation.

Straight answer
How often do you need to refill a commercial scent machine?
Far less often than businesses fear. The SOSA Vaayu has a 400ml refillable tank, and a full 400ml fill lasts up to about 75 days depending on the intensity setting and how many hours a day it runs. Working from that verified figure, at typical store hours a refill lands roughly every 2 to 2.5 months - a rough planning guide rather than a fixed promise, because a lower setting or shorter hours stretches it and a high all-day setting shortens it. Since each machine ships with 400ml included, your first cycle is already covered. For a precise cadence matched to your hours and space, or a refill plan across several sites, request a quotation; to start, you can buy a single Vaayu.

What actually decides how often you refill
Refill frequency is not a single number because it depends on how you run the machine. Working from the one verified figure - a 400ml tank up to about 75 days - three things move it up or down.
1
Intensity setting
The biggest lever on tank life
Higher intensity pushes more oil into the air and empties the tank sooner; a moderate setting sips slowly. On a moderate setting a 400ml tank leans toward the full up-to-75-days figure, so intensity is the first thing to tune for both scent strength and refill rhythm.
Tip: a moderate setting stretches a tank closer to the 75-day figure.
2
Daily run hours
Store hours versus all-day
A machine on timed store hours uses far less than one running 24 hours. The 400ml tank lasting up to about 75 days assumes sensible daily hours - run it around the clock and you will refill sooner. Timers (1h/4h/8h/24h) let you match run time to opening hours.
3
Space and airflow
Bigger or draughtier needs more
A large open floor or a space with strong HVAC airflow may need a firmer setting to stay scented, which uses oil faster. A right-sized machine for the space keeps the setting moderate and the refill rhythm relaxed.
Tip: a right-sized machine keeps settings moderate and refills occasional.
The SOSA principle
The number that reassures every procurement reader is this: a 400ml tank over up to about 75 days means you are handling the machine a handful of times a year, not every week - scenting is closer to changing a water filter than restocking a shelf.
Set the intensity and hours to suit the space, and the refill rhythm becomes predictable enough to diarise.
Turning tank life into a refill rhythm
Here is how the verified tank life translates into a practical refill rhythm you can actually plan around.
The SOSA scent edit
From tank life to refill rhythm
| Scent | Why it suits the mood |
|---|---|
| Verified tank life | A 400ml Vaayu tank lasts up to about 75 days, depending on the intensity setting and daily run hours. |
| Typical store hours | Worked from that figure, a refill roughly every 2 to 2.5 months - a planning guide, not a guarantee, since it depends on your settings. |
| High intensity / all-day | Sooner than that - a firm setting running around the clock uses a tank faster, so the exact cadence is confirmed once you see how you run it. |
Because refill timing depends on how you run the machine, the honest way to lock in a cadence is to see your real usage and set it on a quotation - especially if you want refills to arrive automatically before you run low. If you would like to choose or change your signature scent first, the SOSA Hotel Collection oils let you trial before you settle, and you can shop a single Vaayu at ₹11,999 to begin.
Clear numbers, no surprises
SOSA Vaayu ₹11,999 one-time (ships with 400ml oil); a 400ml tank lasts up to ~75 days. Get exact running cost, bulk pricing and multi-location supply on one quotation.
A tank that runs for up to about 75 days changes the whole feeling of owning a scent machine - it is an occasional refill on the calendar, not a chore on the to-do list.

The SOSA Vaayu cost structure
Whichever way you buy, the shape is the same: a one-time machine, then mostly fragrance oil, plus minimal electricity. The Vaayu is made in India, ships with 400ml of oil, and covers up to 1000m3 (about 2000-3000 sq ft); very large or multi-floor spaces use the Angaan or Meenar. Exact running cost and any bulk or multi-location plan are confirmed on a quotation. Here is the full structure.

How to read this: the biggest number is a one-time machine (₹11,999), and it ships with 400ml of oil, so your first tank is included. After that the main recurring cost is fragrance oil, and because a 400ml fill lasts up to about 75 days (depending on the intensity setting and daily hours), refills are occasional. We do not publish a fixed monthly rupee figure because it genuinely depends on your intensity, hours, space and the refill size you choose - so the exact running cost, bulk machine pricing, refill cadence and any multi-location supply are confirmed on a quotation. There is no compulsory subscription or lock-in beyond buying the fragrance you use.

A note from Sonal
When a business asks me what commercial scenting really costs, I give them the honest shape of it rather than a headline number. There is a one-time machine - the Vaayu is ₹11,999 and it ships with 400ml of our oil, so the first tank is included. After that, the main recurring cost is simply the fragrance oil you use, and electricity is minimal.
The reason I will not quote a fixed monthly figure blindly is that it honestly depends on how you run it. A 400ml tank lasts up to about 75 days depending on the intensity you choose and how many hours a day it runs - a store on daytime hours at a moderate setting sips through it slowly, a high-intensity all-day setting uses more. That is exactly why we put it on a quotation: we look at your space, your hours and your locations, and the numbers are real rather than a guess.
For bulk orders and multi-location groups, we plan the machine quantity, placement and monthly fragrance supply together, so procurement can budget it properly with no surprises. Everything is made in India, and I would always rather you trial the fragrance first and buy what fits than sign up to something you have not smelled.
Frequently asked questions
How often do I refill a SOSA Vaayu?
A 400ml tank lasts up to about 75 days depending on intensity and hours, so at typical store hours you refill roughly every 2 to 2.5 months. Lower intensity or shorter hours stretches it further.
How long does one tank of oil last?
Up to about 75 days per 400ml fill, depending on the intensity setting and how many hours a day the machine runs. That is the verified figure; your exact timing depends on your settings.
Will running it all day mean constant refilling?
It will refill sooner than store-hours use, but still in months rather than weeks. Timers let you run it only during opening hours to stretch each tank.
Does the machine tell me when it is low?
Bluetooth app control lets you monitor and schedule the machine. The reliable way to never run low is to plan refills against the roughly 2 to 2.5 month cycle and keep a spare tank's worth on hand.
Can I get an exact refill schedule for my business?
Yes - request a quotation with your space, intensity preference and daily hours, and SOSA sets a refill cadence and supply plan matched to how you actually run the machine.
