Essential Oil Diffuser is a device that diffuses the essential oil into the air you breathe. The oil it diffuses has a soothing fragrance that relaxes your mind and body. The oil also has a therapeutic value that makes your experience enjoyable and calms your body and soul.
Nowadays, different types of diffusers like evaporative, heat, and ultrasonic are available. In evaporative diffusers, a fan spreads the aroma of oil into the air. Heat diffusers use the candle, and ultrasonic diffusers produce high-frequency vibrations to diffuse the oil into the air.
Whenever you decide to buy a diffuser, there are certain things that you have to consider:
1. Space Coverage
While making the selection of diffusers, you need to keep in mind the size of the place or room for which you are buying it. For the room of kids, bathrooms, and other small areas, diffusers with a water reservoir up to 300ml is sufficient. And for large rooms, diffusers with strong vapor output are required. Ultrasonic diffusers and nebulizers are best for big rooms.
2. Time Settings
In many diffusers these days, the option of time settings is also available. Usually, basic diffusers have a fixed operating period of five hours. If you want the precious oil to be saved and want the diffuser to work for a specified time, like for one, three, or six hours, select the one with this feature. Diffusers with the auto-shutoff feature are also available that work well at night.
3. Level of Noise
For peace of mind, many people prefer to have a diffuser that does not produce noise. Generally, diffusers with large fans are noisy and annoying. If you get distracted easily by even a little noise, you need an ultrasonic or heat diffuser. They do not produce sound and make your aromatherapy experience better.
4. Vapor Output
It is a feature that lets you control the amount of mist that will diffuse in your surroundings. If you are not a lover of intense fragrance, then you need a low vapor output. It can easily be adjusted just like you change the temperature of your air-conditioner.
5. Guarantee and Price
While selecting which diffuser to buy, you also have to consider its price. If you are using it for the first time and want to experience it, then go for an ultrasonic diffuser as it is available for under $20. You also need to see if it comes with a guarantee or not. The nebulizer’s glass top is easily breakable, so make sure you buy a diffuser for which there is a guarantee.
Now you know which essential things are to be kept in mind while purchasing an essential oil diffuser. So, keeping your requirements and the above points in mind, you can make your experience better and even more pacifying.
Additionally, do not forget to check the fragrance of essential oil. You can only enjoy the aromatherapy if you love the aroma of the oil.
