Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Merchant's Arms, a busy gastropub in Bristol, was struggling with inconsistent washroom freshness using standard battery-operated air fresheners that were unreliable and high-maintenance. They needed a dependable, low-effort solution.
"We were constantly checking the loos, spraying air freshener and changing batteries. The TCell units took all that hassle away. Now, the washrooms just smell clean, all the time. Our customers have even commented on it."
David Chen – General Manager
The switch freed up staff time by eliminating daily checks and contributed to a 15% increase in positive online reviews mentioning cleanliness.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Wipe the chosen wall surface clean and dry before mounting.
- Use the included heavy-duty adhesive tape or screws for a secure, permanent fit.
- For best results, place the unit around 2 metres from the floor.
- Position it away from open windows or extractor fans but where there is some natural air movement.
Keeping It Going
- Simply swap out the refill cell every 60 or 90 days as needed.
- Give the outer casing a quick wipe with a damp cloth during your regular cleaning routine.
- There are no batteries to change or mechanical parts to service, ever.
- Keep a stock of your favourite TCell fragrance refills so you never run out.

That's the peace of mind that comes with choosing a trusted industry leader for your facility's needs.
Explore more from RubbermaidHow Does It Work Without Batteries?
Ever wondered how the TCell provides constant fragrance without a single battery or plug? It’s all down to clever, passive technology. Inside each refill is a special membrane and a wick which work together using natural airflow and molecular science – a bit like how a plant draws water up its stem.
Think of it as a high-tech, sealed reed diffuser. It doesn't need a timer to tell it when to work; it continuously releases a fine, invisible vapour of fragrance molecules into the air. This means there's no noise, no moving parts to break, and a much more subtle, even scent than the sudden 'poof' from a typical aerosol dispenser. It’s a smarter, quieter, and more reliable way to maintain a pleasant environment.
