Ellia

Ellia diffusers use ultrasonic technology, which involves a small ceramic disc at the bottom of the water reservoir that vibrates at an extremely high frequency. These vibrations break down the water and essential oil into microscopic particles, creating a fine, cool mist that is released into the air. Because no heat is used, the therapeutic properties of the essential oils remain intact.

Yes. Ellia takes great pride in sourcing. Their single notes (like Lavender, Peppermint, and Lemon) are 100% pure, therapeutic-grade oils sourced from a global network of farmers where the plants thrive best. They are rigorously tested for purity and bottled in violet glass, which protects the oil from damaging UV light to extend its shelf life and potency.

Care must be taken when using aromatherapy around pets, as their sense of smell is much stronger than humans, and some oils can be toxic to them (especially cats and dogs). Oils like Tea Tree, Peppermint, and Eucalyptus can be harmful if diffused heavily or ingested by pets. It is recommended to diffuse in well-ventilated areas where the pet can leave the room, and always consult a vet if you are unsure about a specific oil.

To prevent oil buildup and ensure the mist remains strong, it is recommended to clean your diffuser every 2 weeks. You can do this by emptying the water, wiping the reservoir with a soft damp cloth, or running a cycle with a mixture of water and a teaspoon of white vinegar to break down any residue. Never submerge the base in water.

Yes, you can use clean, cool tap water. However, if you live in an area with "hard water" (high mineral content), it may cause mineral buildup (scale) on the ceramic disc over time. In this case, using distilled or filtered water is recommended to prolong the life of the unit and reduce cleaning frequency.
