HUMIDIFIERS vs. DIFFUSERS: CLEARING UP A COMMON MISCONCEPTION

Are humidifiers the same as diffusers? Although both humidifiers and diffusers technically diffuse liquids into the air, they’re more different than they are similar. The main difference between a humidifier and a diffuser is in their output: humidifiers simply emit water vapor into the air while diffusers emit essential oils contained in tiny water droplets. Humidifiers are designed to increase the moisture in the air while diffusers are meant to disseminate an aroma throughout a room. Humidifiers typically pull water from a reservoir and spread it into the air to increase the relative humidity level.. With a better understanding of the difference between a humidifier and a diffuser, you can choose which one (or both!) will work best for your home spa environment. You can choose higher humidity, aromatherapy, or both to make your home spa air quality as comfortable as possible.
