FAQs
Can I use this with wax melts?
This burner is designed specifically for fragrance oils diluted with water. Using wax may cause the bowl to overflow or overheat.
How often should I clean the burner?
You should wipe out the bowl after every use to prevent the buildup of oil residue, which can become sticky or impact the scent quality of the next use.
Is it safe to leave unattended?
No. Because it uses a real tealight flame, you should never leave it burning unattended or near children and pets.
Why do I need to remove the lid while in use?
Removing the lid is essential for safety, as it prevents the heat from the tealight from building up too intensely inside the housing, which could cause the ceramic to crack.
Can I use it on a wooden table?
It is recommended to place the burner on a heat-resistant coaster or mat to protect wooden surfaces from heat marks.
Troubleshooting
The scent is too faint
Add one or two extra drops of fragrance oil, ensuring the mixture is still adequately diluted with water.
The burner bowl is smoking
The liquid may have evaporated entirely. Extinguish the candle immediately, let the unit cool, and refill with a water and oil mixture.
Residue buildup in the bowl
Use warm soapy water and a soft sponge to gently clean the bowl once the unit is completely cool.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your oil burner, ensure it is placed on a level, heat-resistant surface away from curtains or flammable materials. Always ensure the bowl contains liquid before lighting the candle to prevent the ceramic from cracking due to thermal shock. When in use, always keep the lid removed to allow proper airflow and heat dissipation. After the candle has extinguished and the unit has cooled completely, wipe the bowl clean with a damp cloth to remove any remaining oil residue. Never move the burner while the candle is lit or while the liquid is hot.
