A cold essential oil diffuser releases oils into the air in a very fine mist. Because no heat is involved, the whole oil molecule stays intact, and you’re breathing essential oils into the lungs, the air around is ionized and cleansed, odors and mold are neutralized, and the room smells great.essential oil diffuser

If you have a lot of lung problems dealing with asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia, allergies, coughing, sore throat or a stuffy head, consider having  essential oil diffuser around the house and at the office. It is one of the easiest ways to be introduced to essential oils and incredibly effective for cleaning the environment.

Essential oils

With the use of therapeutic grade essential oils like cinnamon and tea tree, in your diffuser you can combat mold spores, mildew, pet dander, allergens, pollen and many airborne bacteria. Use lemon or peppermint to lift up everyone’s mood, or lavender to help you sleep at night. The uses are endless.

Be aware of oil diffusers that heat up your oils

Think of tea candle warmers, aroma lamp rings, and wall plug-ins. All these destroy the therapeutic value of your oil. Molecules are broken up and never make it into the air, let alone your lungs.

How to Find A Good Essential Oil Diffuser

Always go for a quality diffuser even if you must spend a little bit more money. You will have your diffuser for a long time so it should be easy to operate and easy to clean.
Do not get contraptions where you have to screw a glass nebulizer onto an oil bottle. The nozzles plug up all the time, and you can’t use different size bottles.

Steel base diffusers

Some of the best essential oil diffusers are the steel base diffusers that hold a glass nebulizer and have a small well that can hold an essential oil bottle upside down.
A separate air pump with tubing provides the power to nebulize the contents of the bottle, and the stainless steel base will be very easy to clean with some alcohol or hot soapy water.
It’s important that you have a quiet air pump supplied with the unit preferably with a built-in timer, as this is the only drawback of a cold air diffuser. They can be a little bit noisy. It helps to have a long air tube so you can display your beautiful diffuser on a table but put the pump under the desk or couch.

Ultrasonic diffuser

Only last year the ultrasonic diffuser was introduced. A state of the art atomizer that can diffuse every essential oil out there, even the thicker oils like myrrh and sandalwood. You add both water and essential oils to this diffuser, And with an optimal frequency, the molecules are broken up into a microscopic mist.

This awesome diffuser extends the use of your oils, does not use heat, and comes with a soothing light system different power settings and several timer settings.
