Abstract:
A diffuser apparatus for diffusing solutions comprising:a container or refill containing the solution to be diffused, a wick disposed at least partially inside said container to absorb said solution to be diffused, a heater coupled to said container and to said wick and comprising at least one resistance element, able to increase in temperature when crossed by a current, to heat said wick so as to allow diffusion of said solution from said wick, supply means able to electrically supply said resistance element, characterised in that said resistance element is supported by a support mounted movably in said heater to be able to pass, by user's manual operation, from a position distal to said wick wherein minimum heating of the wick occurs to a position proximal to said wick wherein maximum heating of the wick occurs, and wherein said resistance holding support is mounted eccentrically rotatable with respect to said wick.
