What is a Candle Warmer?

A candle warmer is a device that allows for scent distribution throughout a space without the use of an open flame. There is generally a light and/or heat source of some kind within the device, a plug to go in an outlet or a switch to power on a battery, and an area at the top to hold wax melts. The wax melts are small quantities of pre-portioned scented wax with a low boiling temperature.

Candle warmers have several advantages, especially for those that are sensitive to smoke and soot. Candle warmers offer a smoke-free alternative to enjoying a scented candle and lower the risk of a fire starting since they melt and release the scent in candles and wax blocks without an open flame.

Most candle warmers run on electricity, eliminating harmful soot and after-burn smells. They also help you get the most out of your candle by ensuring an even pool of melted wax without the wick going off-center. These durable products are a long-lasting investment for home fragrance.
