Candles add a cozy, aromatic atmosphere to your home, but their wax can burn out quickly if not heated properly – that’s why candle warmers come in such handy.
These devices work by melting wax without burning its wick, helping you extend the life of your candles and make them more eye-catching.
Safety
Candles are a popular home item that can provide an inviting ambiance when lit. Unfortunately, candles also pose a fire risk due to their combustion process and some emit toxins which could be hazardous for people and the environment.
Thankfully, candle heaters are designed to protect you against these potential dangers. The heater comes equipped with several safety features like a timer circuit that automatically shuts off the device after an established amount of time has elapsed.
Furthermore, the heater is equipped with a temperature-regulating plate that adjusts its heat level to safely melt wax and maintain it at desired temperatures. Furthermore, its fan is housed within the base unit of the device, blowing air upward to help disperse fragrance throughout the room.
The base unit may be constructed of metal material such as galvanized steel, or it can be constructed from other materials so long as their surfaces are nonflammable. Additionally, it may come equipped with a carbon monoxide detector.
Never place a candle heater near a hot burner, such as gas or electric stovetop or heated oven. Additionally, be careful when moving the heater since its contents may contain hot wax which could cause burns.
This candle heater is safe to use outdoors, such as on a camper or tent. However, if you plan on leaving it outside, make sure the area has adequate ventilation by opening windows.
Another safety feature of a candle heater is that it may include a rigid wick. This property can be achieved through special equipment and manufacturing techniques that ensure the wick is correctly positioned during usage.
This is an effective way to enhance the performance of your candle and make it safer for customers. Additionally, having professional assistance when repositioning the wick may result in higher quality products overall. For this reason, consult with either your supplier or a certified tester before making any changes.
Durability
Candles not only add an inviting touch to any home decor, but they can also provide a safe way to warm up and enliven the space. However, it’s essential that you know how to safely use candles in order to avoid fires or other potential safety risks.
One of the best ways to guarantee your candle stays lit is by using a good candle heater. These devices allow you to melt wax without exposing them to flames or soot, making them an excellent alternative to traditional jar candles and helping you save money and protect the environment at the same time.
Candle heaters are built to be long-lasting and safe for regular use. Made from top-quality materials, these heaters typically last 4 to 6 years with proper care.
Another feature of a quality candle heater is that it will evenly melt the wax in your candle, which is essential because tunneling can lead to diminished scent and life of your candle.
This occurs when the heat from a flame dries out the wax along the outer surface of a candle, leading to hardened wax on top that burns faster than if all of it were melted simultaneously.
To prevent tunneling in your candle, always melt the wax evenly and thoroughly. Doing this ensures that the top layer dries completely before any potential ruins can occur.
For a safe and efficient method for melting your candle, Cocopin silicone melter is an ideal choice. This device uses flexible silicone that eliminates soot or burning wicks. Plus, it comes with a timer so you can enjoy your favorite fragrances without fearing for your safety or that of others around you.
You can purchase a candle heater to use as an ambient night lamp in your room. This is an efficient way to provide soft lighting throughout the night and the soft lighting may aid in falling asleep more comfortably.
Fragrance
Candles and wax melts are an excellent way to spread fragrance throughout a room, but burning candles can release harmful pollutants, so it may be best to avoid using them in areas with flame restrictions. A candle heater, however, allows you to enjoy your favorite scented candles without any of the potential hazards that burning candles poses.
For effective use of a candle heater, fill it with liquid that retains your chosen fragrance. This could be water, oil or both; just ensure it doesn’t come into contact with any flammable materials. Once filled, store away in an area away from drafts and heat sources.
When you’re ready to use your candle warmer, simply light a tealight candle and place it under the liquid in your burner. This should warm up the liquid, causing it to begin smelling within minutes.
Alternatively, you can add some of your favorite essential oils to the bowl for additional fragrance. However, be mindful that this should only be done if you are sensitive to scent and can tolerate it.
Furthermore, it’s essential to remember that heating pure fragrance oils can create an overpowering scent. This isn’t recommended and could pose a fire hazard or damage your wax warmer.
One way to use a candle heater to diffuse fragrance is to mix pure fragrance oil with water and place the liquid inside your warmer. This will make the process much more efficient, but be sure there’s not too much liquid left over.
Another option is to place your favorite jar candle directly on the warming plate, but be sure to blow it out once complete. Doing this helps avoid overheating your candle or damaging its heating element in your warmer.
Finally, you can use a wax melter to heat up your wax before pouring in fragrance oil. This works especially well for tart waxes like C55; however, be sure to heat the wax first before adding your fragrance oil. Doing this helps ensure that the fragrance oils bind with wax molecules, improving scent throw and decreasing the likelihood of an unpleasant burn.
