Ultrasonic aroma diffuser: what is it and how to choose it?

Every house has some kind of aroma in the air, and whether it is pleasant or not depends on various factors. So that the apartment or house smells good, but at the same time the smell does not irritate the inhabitants, it is enough to install a miniature, but incredibly useful device - an ultrasonic aroma diffuser. To choose the most convenient and safe design, you need to understand its features, models and principles of operation.

An ultrasonic aroma diffuser is an electric device that evenly sprays water vapor with essential oils in the air, filling the room with a light aroma. Modern designs are able not only to fill the room with aroma, but also to humidify the air, cleanse bacteria, illuminate, and give pleasant music.

Like all mains powered appliances, the aroma diffuser has many features.

• Security... An aroma diffuser, unlike aroma lamps, does not have heating elements and does not require a fire to work.
• Ease of operation. To start the ultrasonic accessory, simply plug it in and press the start button.
• Compactness... Most of the models are compact, so they can be installed anywhere.
• Wide functionality... Most modern models, in addition to their direct purpose, perform several additional options: air ionization, humidity level control, backlight, alarm clock.

Aroma diffusers are presented on the market in many different types, so each buyer can easily choose a convenient and safe model for himself. In terms of size and volume, all designs are divided into three categories: miniature (the volume of the flask is not more than 100 ml), standard (the volume of the flask is 110-300 ml) and large (with the volume of the flask over 310 ml). The larger the area of ​​the room where the accessory will be installed, the more voluminous the bulb should be. The compact accessory is ideal for a bedroom, bathroom or kitchen.

Devices are made from completely different materials: natural wood, plastic, glass, ceramics, metal. Combined designs are of particular interest. The main difference between aroma diffusers is their functionality.

The ceramic, glass or wood ultrasonic instrument can be of the following types.

• Backlit. Many designs are equipped with illumination, which is convenient at night, since the device will function as a night light or lamp. There can be one light, or several modes of glow and intensity can be used.
• With music. In some models, the operation of the device is accompanied by relaxing and soothing music. Most often these are sounds of nature, birdsong or calm melodies that evoke pleasant emotions.
• With a capsule. The most modern designs are not intended for essential oils, but for special capsules, the activation of which is regulated by means of a control panel or a smartphone.
• With an alarm clock. A clock with an alarm option can be located on the control panel.

Before use, the reservoir is filled with purified water up to the indicated mark. Essential oil is added to it, and only then the unit can be connected to the mains. The oil is added based on the area of ​​the room: 1 drop per 2-3 m2. After the water has completely evaporated, the device automatically turns off, so you can safely turn it on at night.

In order for the device to serve for a long time and perform its functions, you need to take care of him: rinse the tank after using concentrates, wipe the bottom of the tank after the water has evaporated with a soft cloth to avoid lime deposits, delicately clean the body of the structure, and also avoid kinking and kinking the cable.
