Frequently Asked Questions How does AQ160 work? AQ160 uses a recently patented technology to convert liquid fragrance compounds into tiny droplets less than 1/50th the diameter of a human hair. By comparison, an aerosol droplet is 100 times bigger and 1,000,000 times heavier. AQ160 droplets present 100 times more surface area to the air they are treating, which means much less fragrance is used to create the scent effect.

My AQ160 does not run for several minutes at a time. Is this normal? The AQ160 scent intensity levels are designed through the use of on and off duty cycles. Therefore, a higher scent intensity setting will cause the unit to cycle on for longer periods of time. A lower scent intensity setting will cause the unit to cycle on for a shorter period of time.
