Review on 🌿 Air Wick Plug in Scented Oil Starter Kit, Lavender & Chamomile - 2 Warmers + 6 Refills, Eco-Friendly with Essential Oils - Air Freshener by Air Wick by Alanna Scott

Context: My drain pump is in a utility closet in my downstairs hallway that leads to the garage - sometimes, about once a month, the drain pump stinks. It's ok to yell "PUMP" but still a weird smell. Adding a Fair Air Freshener: The air freshener successfully masked the smell with a more pleasant scent. However, it seemed to me that every time I walked down the hall, someone stuck a scented bar of soap up my nose. I started at level 3 of 5 and switched the device to level 1. It still didn't help. "Modification" of Air FreshenerThe air freshener is designed to always release fragrance at a constant rate. I had a smart plug, so I put an air freshener in it. From there, I set rules based on time and activity. Now I run the air freshener 3 times a day at 20 minute intervals, and if nobody is in the house for more than 4 hours, the air freshener will also run for 20 minutes (assuming there is no traffic on the ground floor). . ). This approach has significantly reduced the odor intensity in the hallway, but still effectively masks the smell of the swamp. It's early days, but I also suspect that since the air freshener only runs for about an hour and 20 minutes a day, not 24 hours, any oil cartridge should last exponentially longer than advertised.
