Air fresheners are simple to install and to maintain yourself. Typical units will require to have their canister exchanged either every 30, 45, or 60 days depending upon how it is set up. Most new units now are fully programmable for the times of day to be in use which determines the length of time between refills.

Air fresheners are easy to install and with a bit of common sense of where they should be located e.g. not at eye level.

Changing the canister is also easy as there is a special key for the unit and it is simply a case of replacing the canister. A lot of units can be set to "bleep" then they need changing.
