How Should I Plan Fragrance Across a 3BHK?
SOSA · 3BHK homes
Fragrance across a 3BHK, zone by zone
A 3BHK usually has one main living volume, a corridor linking the rooms, and bedrooms used by different people on different routines.

The short answer
Look at the main living volume first. If the living, dining and corridor are open to each other and fit within 1000 m³, one Vaayu can scent them together. Then decide which bedrooms you want scented: each closed bedroom usually needs its own Pawan. Not every room needs a machine.
Plan it
Six steps for a 3BHK
- The main living volume. Living, dining and the corridor that joins them. Measure the floor area and ceiling height together.
- Bedroom doors and preferences. Ask each person whether they want their room scented, and whether the door stays closed.
- A larger unit for the main area. If the connected area fits within 1000 m³, Vaayu can cover it from one place.
- Room devices where needed. Pawan for each closed bedroom or study that someone wants scented.
- One scent or several. Keep one scent in connected spaces. A closed bedroom can have its own.
- Settings and refills. Run each machine for its own hours and track how quickly oil goes in your home.
Pawan or Vaayu?
Choose by the space, not the label
A flat size or a room name is only a starting point. Layout, ceiling height, airflow and closed doors decide what a space really needs.
Pawan: one room
One room of up to about 500 sq ft: a bedroom, study, cabin or small living room. It plugs into the wall, runs silently and is set from the SOSA app.
Vaayu: a connected space
One open, connected space of up to 1000 m³, roughly 2,000 to 3,000 sq ft depending on ceiling height. It schedules by day, run window and intensity.
Closed doors count
A room you keep closed is its own space. One Vaayu will not reach behind a shut bedroom door, so a closed room usually needs its own Pawan.

Questions
Before you choose
Should I choose Pawan or Vaayu?
Pawan suits one room of up to about 500 sq ft. Vaayu suits one connected space of up to 1000 m³, roughly 2,000 to 3,000 sq ft depending on ceiling height. A room kept behind a closed door usually needs its own Pawan.
Will one Vaayu reach the bedrooms?
Not if their doors are closed. One Vaayu scents the connected space it sits in. A closed bedroom needs its own Pawan.
Should every room have the same scent?
It does not have to. One scent across connected spaces feels calm and consistent. A closed bedroom can have its own scent if the person using it prefers something different.
What if someone in the home is sensitive to fragrance?
If someone is pregnant, has asthma, migraines or a known fragrance sensitivity, check with your doctor first, start on the lowest setting and keep the space ventilated.
