Fragrance for an Open Living-Dining Area and Separate Bedrooms
SOSA · living areas and bedrooms
Scent the living area, keep bedrooms personal
Most row houses have one open social space and several private bedrooms. The plan that works treats them differently.

The short answer
Scent the connected living and dining area as one zone: Vaayu if it fits within 1000 m³, Pawan if it is a compact room of up to about 500 sq ft. Give each closed bedroom its own Pawan only if the person using it wants fragrance. Start with the living area and add rooms later.
Plan it
Five steps
- Map the living zone. Living, dining and any corridor open to them. Measure area and ceiling height.
- Mark the doors. Bedrooms with doors usually closed are separate spaces.
- Main zone first. Vaayu for a large connected living area, Pawan for a compact one.
- Bedrooms by choice. A Pawan in each bedroom that wants it, with its own scent and timer.
- Expand later. Live with the main zone for a few weeks before adding more.
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 the living-room scent reach the bedrooms?
Only faintly if doors are open, and not at all if they are closed. Plan bedrooms separately.
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.
Can I schedule them?
Yes. Pawan is set from the SOSA app with a timer, for example mornings and evenings. Vaayu is set from the SOSA app over Bluetooth or its buttons: the days, a run window of 1, 4, 8 or 24 hours, and the intensity.
