FAQs
What type of oil should I use with this burner?
You should use diluted fragrance oils. Do not use undiluted essential oils or wax melts, as this can damage the burner and create excessive smoke.
Does it come with a candle or fragrance oil?
No, the oil burner does not include a tealight candle or fragrance oil. These must be purchased separately.
How long does the fragrance last?
The duration of the fragrance depends on the type and amount of oil used, as well as the size of the room and ventilation. Typically, a single session can last for several hours.
Can I leave the burner unattended?
No, never leave a burning candle or an oil burner unattended. Ensure it is placed away from flammable materials and out of reach of children and pets.
How do I clean the iridescent finish?
Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or soaking the burner, as this can affect the iridescent coating.
What are the dimensions of the burner?
The oil burner measures approximately 13.5cm in width, 11cm in height, and 6.2cm in depth.
Is this suitable for essential oils?
This burner is designed for diluted fragrance oils. While some essential oils can be diluted, it's best to check the oil manufacturer's recommendations and use them sparingly to avoid potential damage to the ceramic.
Troubleshooting
No fragrance is being released
Ensure the tealight candle is properly lit and burning. Check that there is enough water and fragrance oil in the top dish. The room may be too large or well-ventilated for the scent to be noticeable.
Water is evaporating too quickly
Ensure you are using the correct amount of water as per instructions. A larger flame from the tealight could cause faster evaporation.
Burner is damaged or chipped
Handle with care. If the ceramic is chipped or cracked, discontinue use to avoid injury or further damage.
Residue left in the dish after use
Clean the dish thoroughly with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth after each use once it has cooled down.
