Q. Are candle warmers safe to leave on all day?
A. It's best not to leave a wax burner on for 8-12 hours at a time to preserve the scent. You should test out and see how warm your wax burner gets and how fast. If your wax melter heats up quickly, you may only need to plug it in for a little while to fragrance your entire room.
Q. Is it safe to sleep with a candle warmer on?

Q. Are wax warmers healthier than candles?
A. Soot can irritate those who have asthma, COPD, and bronchitis. Even though some waxes produce less soot than others, it is unavoidable. Soot from candles will stain walls and furniture over time. Wax melts don't produce soot and are therefore the healthier option.
Q. What temperature is a candle warmer?
A. Those temperature ranges mean the wax warmer will get that hot to melt the wax. Your typical wax warmer has an average of 132.7 °F (55.94 °C) (these are numbers going as low as 100 °F (37.8 °C) and as high as 168 °F (75.5 °C) in the experiment we conducted below on 3 different wax warmers)
Q. Can you put a metal candle on a candle warmer?
A. A tin/metal candle should be fine, just be careful not to scratch into the warmer's surface. If the warmer does start to look scratched, avoid using it with anything that could conduct electricity and give you a nasty shock.

Q. How much electricity does a wax warmer use?
A. In the case of candle warmers, the average wattage for them is 25 watts. If using it for 8 hours a day, every day, it is said to use about 73 kWh of electric energy and cost around $9.00 a year to operate. What are natural wax candles?
