Air Handling Unit (AHU)
Airflow
AHUs control the flow of air in a space. If the airflow is too strong, it can disperse scents too quickly, leading to a short-lived fragrance experience. Conversely, if the airflow is too weak, it may not distribute the scent evenly throughout the sp
Temperature and Humidity
AHUs regulate the temperature and humidity of the air. Extreme temperatures or humidity levels can alter the intensity and longevity of scents. For example, high temperatures can cause scents to evaporate more quickly, while high humidity can dampen
Filtration
AHUs typically include air filters to remove dust, allergens, and other particles from the air. These filters can also trap scent molecules, reducing the effectiveness of scent distribution.
Air Exchange Rate
The frequency at which air is exchanged in a space by the AHU can impact scent performance. A higher air exchange rate may dilute scents more quickly, while a lower rate can help maintain scent intensity.
Air Quality
Air Quality: The cleanliness of the air circulated by the AHU can affect how well scents are perceived. If the air is contaminated with odors or pollutants, it can interfere with the ability to detect and enjoy fragrances. Optimizing the settings of
