I put the oils in my Gurin Spa Vapor Advanced Wellness Instant Healthful Mist Ultrasonic Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser.

I use essential oils in my unit and it works fine. It is a small unit, so just a drop or two of oil is all you need. I use the unit next to my desk - to humidify the local area and be sure to clean as per the instructions after each use.

I do use an air freshener in my humidifier, but it is water based. I would guess that an oil would have to be stay heated in order to give off a fragrance.

Yes with water. I fill water level, then drop essential oil in and turn on. It infuses and disperses in a vapor form. I have used a variety of essential oils with no problem.

I did. However, it destroyed my humidifier. So my recommendation would be to follow the manufacturer's instructions on adding stuff to the water in your humidifier if you can at all.

No, can't be used in any ultrasonic humidifier, only evaporative type or those with a filter.

On the package it says: Use in all wick and filter-type humidifiers. Not for use in vaporizer/ultrasonics.

I have never made infusion water. However, I would think so. You can use dried leaves for infusing oils. I would study it on line a bit though.

I am sure it is safe to use on a humidifier since it is safe for food equipment. However there maybe a more effective cheaper descaling product out there since any residue left does not have to be food safe.

Depends on you humidifier. most will say not to add anything to them unless there is a special area to add the oil to. it ruins them.

I believe so. I steam them everyday in a steamer as I use them for bottle labels for daycare. I have even cut them and they have held up. Oil should not be an issue.

Operating instructions indicate the following: "Additives are NOT recommended." I haven't tried it, however would ASSUME it to be alright if oils are used judiciously.

It is my understanding that these oils are made for that exact purpose. I am actually a soaper so not positive about the temps. I have ordered things directly from snappy, great customer service, you may want to direct your questions there.

yes, no problem. What you need is some humidity, or every week, soak them in water.

I put drops into a spray bottle with filtered water and use as a room deodorizer. I don't know about the humidifier, did you ever use drops of oil into it before?

I'm not familiar with that aspect of the oils. I would look on the doTerra website or locate a doTerra sales representative.

That I am not real sure of. I do know they have diffusers for that purpose, and some are up there in price. Some humidifiers says not to add anything but water or if they add scents it is made for that. If you would like to try on an old humidifier that would be the best to do. Thrift stores carry those for cheap and you will not have to spend alot of money if it ruins the humidifier. You know the Vicks thing you can put the med rub in the cup, well that could be another option as well. I have tried to figure out another way to use those essential oils for aromatherapy that is what I buy essential oils. When you buy those oils make sure you can use them for whatever you bought them for. (food grade, skin safe (no reactions on skin), and will not harm the body thru inhalation. Hope I helped!
