Fragrance Machines for a Detached or Semi-Detached House in the UK
SOSA · London, Manchester, Birmingham and Edinburgh
A detached or semi-detached house in the UK, planned floor by floor
A detached or semi-detached house usually spreads living space over two floors, often with a knocked-through kitchen-diner downstairs. Each floor and each formal room is its own zone.

The short answer
Plan a detached or semi-detached house floor by floor. Give the main living area a Vaayu if it fits within 1000 m³, treat a separate formal sitting room as its own zone, and add a Pawan only to the bedrooms that want fragrance. No single machine will scent every level.
Your plan
Step by step
- Floor by floor. List each level and the connected space on it.
- The main living area. Vaayu for the largest connected room on the entertaining floor.
- The formal room. A separate sitting or dining room with doors is its own zone: Pawan if compact, a second Vaayu if large.
- Bedrooms upstairs. A Pawan in each closed bedroom that wants fragrance.
- The stair is not a duct. An open stair joins floors a little, but will not carry scent evenly upstairs.
In the UK
What changes in the UK
Heated, closed rooms
UK homes are heated and kept closed for much of the year, and most are divided into separate rooms with doors, which shapes how fragrance travels.
Knock-throughs and extensions
A knocked-through lounge or a rear kitchen extension often makes one large connected space downstairs.
Delivery and plugs
Orders to the UK usually arrive in about a week. Sockets in the UK are Type G, so Pawan, which plugs straight into the wall, usually needs a plug adapter. Ask us which one before you order.

Questions
Before you choose
Can one Vaayu scent both floors?
No. It scents the connected space it sits in. Plan each floor, and each room behind a closed door, separately.
Will scent from downstairs reach the landing?
A little, through the stair, but not evenly. Plan the upstairs rooms separately.
Do you deliver to the UK?
Yes. Orders to the UK usually arrive in about a week. Sockets in the UK are Type G, so Pawan, which plugs straight into the wall, usually needs a plug adapter. Ask us which one before you order.
What should I send you for a recommendation?
A floor plan or rough sketch, the size of each room, ceiling height, which doors stay closed, where the sockets are, the hours the space is used and the scents you like. Photos help too.
Not sure which one?
