Product Comparison – Scent Renu

Compare Scent Renu with other odor treatments on the market.

A harsh, hazardous chemical
Leaves behind a strong odor (described as the smell of a swimming pool, fuel oil, kerosene, chemicals, or cat urine)
Works for some odors in the air and on surfaces, but not those absorbed into carpet, upholstery, headliner and other fabrics
Strong odors are usually only temporarily removed, they often come back in a week or two

At ground level ozone is a hazardous air pollutant
Ozone reacts with airborne compounds to create even more dangerous byproducts such as formaldehyde
Ozone treatment leaves behind a strong odor
Ozone can remove some organic compounds from the air, but odors absorbed into porous surfaces are not removed

Negative ions are produced that attract and reduce particles in the air such as dust and pollen
Does not remove odors effectively
Ionizers produce ozone as a by-product, releasing levels of ozone in the air that are higher than acceptable safety standards for humans

An atomized enzyme formula is applied to soft surfaces and absorbs to break down odors within
A fog is then used to cleanse the air and remove odor-causing agents on hard surfaces
The fog is also distributed into the ventilation system to remove odors that could be recirculated and reintroduced into the air
The process leaves behind no dangerous residue or by-products.

These take hours to work, then more time must pass before an area or vehicle can be re-entered safely
Many claim to work for only 30 days, clearly indicating that the underlying odor has not been removed
Often, these simply reduce or cover up the odor for a time

The initial Scent Renu treatment process happens quickly, you can be back in the vehicle or property within an hour or two
The enzymes will continue to work until the treated area has thoroughly dried.
When the enzymes fully complete their work, the original bad odor is eliminated—gone for good

These are designed simply to mask and disguise odors
Instead of deodorizing, air fresheners do nothing more than put artificial odors in the air to overpower bad smells
They re-odorize rather than de-odorize

This odor treatment process does not mask, disguise, or cover up odors
Scent Renu formulas attack the odor at its source
Although each formula does have a unique fragrance when it is initially applied, after the enzymes have done their work zero odor is left behind

Some claim to remove all organic stains, kill all bacteria, and neutralize all odors with just one application; odors, however have a variety of causes so a one-size-fits-all approach is bound to work better on some odors than others
Many of these products must be sprayed, rewetted, scrubbed into the surface, combined with upholstery or carpet cleaning products, and sometimes there is so much moisture involved that an extractor must be used to try and pull out the liquids that have soaked deep within
Using these products can be a time-intensive process that has the potential to introduce new moisture-related odors

Scent Renu has several formulas specifically designed to attack different types of odor—mildew, smoke (of various kinds), pet odor, body odor, etc.
The process uses an atomized mist that does not introduce a great deal of moisture into the area
It is applied and left to do its work, no time and labor-intensive work is needed to finish the job
The enzymes do their work, and do it completely!
