There are many different types of aromatherapy diffusers, the best of which will leave the rooms of the home or office smelling fresh and clean all of the time and last without a refill for almost a month. There are some aromatherapy diffusers that are well hidden so that individuals in the home or office do not even notice they are there, but can smell their effects. There are others that are made to be decorative, so that they do not look out of place sitting on a shelf or on a coffee table. Others stay out of the way by being plugged into a wall socket or hung on a wall so that they can readily disperse their fragrances.
Popular Types
One popular type of aromatherapy diffuser is the fan diffuser. The fan aromatherapy diffusers are either plugged into a wall socket or are run by battery. There is a small motor in them that runs the fan in the unit. The fan blows the air across the pad that is soaked in the scented oils so that the fragrance is blown across the room. This type of unit is better than the heated types of units that also plug into the walls since it disperses the fragrance better so that the entire room is filled rather than having a strong smelling spot around the unit.
One problem with the fan aromatherapy diffuser is that the oil in the container often runs out quickly, depending on how high the individual sets the scent meter. The more the scent is released, the sooner the small container of oil will run out and have to be replaced in the fan aromatherapy diffuser. In addition, this type of diffuser is constantly running, thus sucking energy from the home or office twenty-four hours per day, even when they are not at home or working.

Another Type of Aromatherapy Diffuser
Another type of aromatherapy diffuser that does not use extra energy like the fan does, is the lamp ring. This type of diffuser sits on top of the light bulb in a lamp so that it is hidden from sight. The oil is poured into the ring so that it can be heated by the light bulb and diffused into the room. Since lamps are usually placed near sitting areas, this is a perfect place for the diffuser, since it will freshen all the areas where the individual is likely to work or relax.
