SOICARE Aromatherapy Machine Purchase Guide
There are many types of aroma diffusers, we will introduce them to you one by one, so that you can choose the type of aroma diffuser you like best when you buy.

 1. Choose the type of aroma diffuser

Choose the type of diffuser to be used in the office or at home. Each type of decomposition is different and spreads the oil into the air..
Ultrasonic Diffusers
It’s the most common type of diffuser and to use it, you need to mix some drops of essential oil with a large amount of water. The mixture will turn into a finely scented and absorbable mist.
This type can also act as a humidifier, giving moisture to the air and eliminating the dryness around your home.
Since the oils are diluted with water, this type usually doesn’t produce absolute concentration but the scent is strong enough to remove unpleasant odours.
Heat Diffusers
It features a breakdown process similar to the ultrasonic type. However, it heats up the water, which is the main reason it’s not as effective as the other types. You’d need to use more essential oils to get the best out of it.
Therefore, there aren’t a lot of brands that offer this type but if you see one, you might want to look closely into its features before making a purchase.
Nebulizing Diffuser
When it comes to oil concentration, this type is the most powerful. It doesn’t require you to make a mixture with water, as you only need to add the essential oil bottle to the device and through the atomizer, it’ll automatically disperse into the air.
It provides a high-fragrance intensity and also exhausts the oil faster than the other types so it’s advisable to use it for only short spans of time.
Evaporative Diffusers
For those who prefer a more affordable option, you may try using the evaporative diffusers. This type uses a fan to break down the oils and disperse them into the air.
Like the nebulizer, it also disperses the oil quickly. You may also be bothered by the noise caused by the fans but it can still be a worthy purchase considering its cost-effectiveness.
2. Oil Type Compatibility
If you have a particular essential oil that you always use, you need to check first if it’s compatible with the diffuser that you’re eyeing.
Each essential oil is made up of different thicknesses and chemical compositions. Some of them can corrode the metal/plastic parts of a diffuser or leave a residue that can clog up the device.
So make sure to read the manufacturer’s specifications about the types of essential oils that you can use on the device.
3. Applicable venues for aromatherapy machines
Where do you want to put the diffuser. For a large space like a living room or work area, you must buy an ultrasonic type with a large water tank-a sprayer or evaporative diffuser is also fine, because these types can disperse a large amount of oil in a short time. However, if you already have a small fuel tank, you can simply increase the amount of oil to produce a higher odor intensity. If you plan to use it in a small room such as a bedroom or office, it is best not to use an evaporative diffuser, because the noise from the fan may annoy or distract you.
4. Aromatherapy machine cleaning
As you add more and more essential oils to the diffuser, some parts of the equipment are likely to have oil residue. Therefore, you also need to make sure that the diffuser requires minimal cleaning, so you can clean it completely without spending too much time.
5. Safety Features
All electronic devices must also guarantee secure and safe use, so you should always check if the diffuser has an auto-shutdown feature.
This function will shut off the power of the device once the water level becomes too low. This will prevent damage, especially for the small diffusers that can’t last all night.
