Use Multiple Diffusers for Very Large Areas

If you're trying to cover an area anywhere from 800 to 1,000 square feet, your best bet is to simply get two diffusers.

As mentioned above, low water levels can be the reason why your diffuser doesn't work, i.e. there's no diffusion. However, too much water can be problematic too. If you overfill your device with water and the water overflows, it can reach the diffuser's electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Adding too many drops to your diffuser can lead to headaches and dizziness in the short term and there is also evidence to suggest that overuse can cause throat, lung and blood pressure problems in the long term. Don't worry, though. Getting the quantity right is easy!

If your diffuser does not work, the first step is to make sure it is properly plugged in. If it's plugged in, and the lights nor mist will turn on, make sure there is power coming from your source. A possible cause may be mineral or oil buildup, causing the unit to have difficulty misting.

Central Spaces

Placing a diffuser in the center of a room is the best way to get an even spread of scents, but that's not always practical. So instead, focus on placing them on surfaces that are relatively near the middle section of a room. This can be a side table near the couch or a bookshelf.

There's also no standard recommendation for how long to diffuse your oils. A standard rule of thumb is to diffuse for 15 to 20 minutes, which is more than enough time to saturate a standard-size room with scent molecules.

There are 3 parts to a nebuliser - the glass chamber, the base and its adaptor. If there is no mist, check if there is any oil left inside the glass chamber. If there is still oil but the oil is not diffusing up the misting pipes, despite the presence of vibration, the cause could be a clogged chamber.

When deciding how many drops of essential oil to use, there are some general guidelines to follow. You will need 6 to 10 drops for a 200 ml size fragrance diffuser, 9 to 12 drops for a 300 ml capacity, 12 to 15 drops for a 400 ml capacity, and 15 to 20 drops for a 500 ml capacity.

After setting it up, a reed diffuser will typically last between 1 to 6 months, depending on the amount of aroma oil in the vessel. Whenever you want a burst of fragrance, flip the reed sticks. Do this carefully one by one to avoid letting the fragrance oil drip out.

As long as you're using a high quality diffuser and high quality,all natural essential or aroma oils, there's likely no risk to diffusing your oils overnight. However, if you'd like to take extra precautions, the easiest safety solution is to get a diffuser with an automatic shut off feature.

His recommendation is to turn your diffuser on between one and three times a day for up to 30 minutes at the maximum. According to him, overexposure and the act of inhaling essential oils can lead to headaches.

Replace the reeds

If you still have a lot of oil left and you flip the reeds regularly but can't smell it, the reeds may have become too saturated or clogged with dust. In this situation, simply replace the reeds and continue using it as normal.

Size of Your Home

If your room is larger than 100 square feet, you will need more than one vent (at least two) to really get adequate airflow to the room. If the room is smaller, you only need one. Our favorite tip: Divide the number of air vents that you have in a room by the square footage in that room.

Grilles are typically placed high on a wall, whereas diffusers are usually in the ceiling, but their function is the same – to mix supply and ventilation air into the room to provide comfort.

As I researched about it on the internet, it says that the recommended distance is 3 times the size of the diffuser.

But in general, placed correctly, one Aera will scent a room with an open floor plan and average ceiling height of 12 feet between 500-1000 sq. ft. One Aera Mini will scent a small space with an open floor plan and average ceiling height of 12 feet between 200-400 sq.
