Article: Why Is My Reed Diffuser Not Working?

Why Is My Reed Diffuser Not Working?

Reed diffusers are a stylish and convenient way to infuse your home with fragrance, but what happens when yours doesn’t seem to work? If your diffuser isn’t performing as expected, don’t worry. Here are the most common reasons why and how to fix them.

1. Placement Matters

Where you place your reed diffuser significantly impacts its effectiveness. If it’s in a drafty area, near an air conditioner, or exposed to direct sunlight, the scent may dissipate too quickly or unevenly. To resolve this, place your diffuser in a central, well-ventilated space away from strong air currents and sunlight.

2. Alcohol Free Fragrance Oils matters

DUX Reed Diffusers are alcohol free and non-toxic, to ensure that the fragrance in your home is safe for you and your loved ones. To ensure your Reed Diffuser fragrance is long lasting, our Reed Diffusers are alcohol free, reducing the rate of evaporation of your fragrance oils.

3. The Quality of Oils 

The type of fragrance oil used to make a Reed Diffuser will impact how well your Reed Diffuser fragrances your home. DUX Reed Diffusers are made with the highest quality fragrance oils to ensure a beautiful aroma is always present in your space. 

4. Low Oil Levels

A diffuser with little or no oil left simply can’t function. Check the oil level in your diffuser and refill or replace it as needed. DUX Collection offers premium, long-lasting diffuser oils made from natural ingredients to enhance your home.

5. Temperature and Humidity Affect Performance

Low humidity or colder temperatures can slow the evaporation of the fragrance oil, making your diffuser seem less effective. In these conditions, try adding more reeds or moving the diffuser to a slightly warmer area to boost the scent.

6. Flip the Reeds Regularly

One of the easiest ways to refresh your diffuser’s performance is to flip the reeds. Over time, reeds can become saturated and stop effectively releasing fragrance. By flipping them every three to four days, you’ll ensure the scent is reactivated and diffuses more evenly.
