Can I add essential oil in the water?

No, in its user's manual says that you can not mix the water with any other substance, such as aromatic oil or lotion.

Why would you ever ever add essential oils to your water? This is horrible for you and not meant to be consumed.

There is a small removable reservoir where you put the oils. The water "wicks" up into the water. You don't add oil to the water. This diffuser was much larger than I anticipated and the separate container for the oil was a nuisance, plus it takes a lot of oil for not much scent. I prefer the smaller capacity diffuser for which you add oil directly to the water.

You can. The inhaler comes with a couple of pads that are saturated with oils. Once those are used up, you can add more drops of oil to them, or buy new ones. I am not sure if you should add oil directly to the water reservoir. The reservoir is plastic (unlike the older version, which was stainless), and I am not sure if the oil would react with the plastic. If it doesn't react, it should be fine, I used to do that with the old metal one.

I wouldn't recommend it. Not all essential oils are for ingestion. Even though you are only wanting to use it with your sinus rinse, I would be concerned that adding the oil might burn your sinus cavity. Three drops of oil into 4-6 oz of water for a diffuser will spread the aroma throughout a 12x12 room. It's pretty strong.

Yes, most essential oils are lovely in the bath. I mix a few drops with epson salts for a relaxing soak. As for a body wash, yes they can be added to a base soap or oil. Essential oils are extremely concentrated, way too strong to use directly as a wash.

According to the directions, you cannot add anything directly into the water. However, there are small round fabric discs you can buy that have different fragrances that fit right over the water reservoir. A sample came with the inhaler. You may be able to buy them on Amazon.

No. Pure essential oils (such as these) float on water's surface in concentrated droplets so should not be used with your diffuser. There are many reasonably-priced diffusers available for purchase that are specifically made for essential oils.

Yes you can but you must add this to your massage oil because the lavender oil is very a concentrated. Thanks for asking

No, you do not have to add water - what you do is wet your towels, (you may add some aromatherapy drops for good smell, since this warmer stinks...) wring the towels well to get the access water out, then use them.

Yes you can, but I'm not sure about the amount since these are very very concentrated oils. It would be best to Goggle for information

The oil I use is already watered down so I put it in straight but if ur using a consintrated oil water can n probably should be added

Yes, I added orange oil. Smells great. But the oil is clogging up the filter...so I am not getting as much steam. I switched to a clean filter and its working fine again...so I guess I wouldn't recommend adding oil because it effects the output of steam. :)

Unfortunately I don't know. I have never used essential oils and don't know how difficult (if at all) they are to humidify. It's a great humidifier on it's own though. If oils like that are typically okay to put into humidifiers then I would guess it's okay.

Yes, just add oils to the water. Have had this for several months and really like it.
