A diffuser that runs without mist usually has a clogged nozzle (nebulizer type) or mineral buildup on the ultrasonic plate (water type). Clean the nozzle or plate with rubbing alcohol or white vinegar. Also check that the oil level or water level is not too low. Poor Air Circulation A diffuser needs some air movement. Without it, the scent stays in one spot. But too much airflow—like from a fan or an open window—scatters the fragrance too fast. Keeping the door slightly open or having gentle air movement in the room helps.Too little water level is one of the most frequent causes of a non-functioning air fragrance diffuser.

Diffusion guidelines Intermittent means 30-60 minutes on, then 30-60 minutes off. This is because our body, especially our nervous system, habituates after this length of time. With continuous diffusion, while benefits do not increase, there is evidence that the body becomes stressed in various ways.
