🌿 Frequently Asked Questions

1. Are candle warmers safer than traditional candles?

Yes. Candle warmers eliminate the open flame, reducing fire risk while still delivering beautiful fragrance throughout your home. They’re particularly ideal for homes with children or pets.

2. Do candle warmers make candles last longer?

Yes. Because the wax is gently warmed from the top rather than burned, your candles can last much longer and release fragrance more evenly.

3. Are wax melts safe around pets and children?

When used in a flameless warmer and with proper ventilation, wax melts are considered a safer alternative to burning candles. Always place warmers on stable surfaces and monitor pets or children around them.

4. Can candle warmers be left on overnight?

While there’s no flame, candle warmers are still electrical appliances. It’s best to follow the manufacturer’s instructions and avoid leaving them unattended for extended periods.

5. How long do wax melts last?

Wax melt longevity depends on the size of the melt, the warmer used, and how long it’s on. Most wax melts will provide hours of fragrance, and you can easily reuse the wax until the scent fades.

6. Are electric wax melt burners safe to use?

Yes — when used according to the instructions. Keep the warmer on a flat, heat-resistant surface, and do not leave unattended for extended periods.

7. Do warmers use a lot of electricity?

No. Most candle warmers use a small bulb, similar to a bedside lamp, making them very energy efficient. They’re an economical way to enjoy longer-lasting fragrance.

8. Can I use my own candles or wax melts with warmers?

Yes! Candle warmers are designed to work with standard jar candles and wax melts. We recommend using quality wax for the best scent throw.

9. Can I use essential oils in candle warmers?

Yes, but only certain wax melts or blends designed for flameless use. Avoid adding pure essential oils directly to the lamp, as this can damage the warmer or cause uneven heating.

10. Are flameless diffusers better than traditional candles?

Diffusers provide continuous fragrance without flame, soot, or heat, making them perfect for long-term scenting. They’re great for offices, bedrooms, or spaces where you want subtle, consistent aroma.

11. Can I mix and match scents in my warmer?

Absolutely! You can experiment with wax melts or layered candles to create unique fragrance combinations, just avoid mixing incompatible waxes to maintain a clean burn.

12. How do I clean my candle warmer?

Turn it off and allow it to cool. Remove leftover wax using a soft cloth or by melting slightly and wiping. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the surface.

13. Why do candle warmers make the scent stronger than burning?

Because the wax is gently heated rather than burned, the fragrance oils are released evenly, giving a fuller, more consistent scent throw throughout the room.
