Candle Safety

Candle Safety Guide

  • Please read the candle care card provided in shipment and warning labels on ALL products received. Jade Rain Creations is not responsible for damages caused by user misuse and negligence. 

  • Always burn candle within sight. Extinguish all candles when leaving the room and before going to sleep. Make sure the wick ember is no longer glowing or smoking.

  • Never burn a candle on or near anything that may catch fire.

  • Keep candles out of reach from children and pets.

  • Trim candlewicks to ¼ inch each time before burning. Long or crooked wicks can cause soot deposit, large flame, uneven burning, or dripping. Trimming the wick too short can cause a melt pool to extinguish the flame and result in tunneling.

  • Be sure the candle is placed on a stable, heat-resistant surface. This can help prevent heat damage to underlying surfaces and prevent glass containers from breaking.

  • Keep the wax pool free of any debris at all times.

  • Keep burning candles away from drafty areas. This will help prevent rapid, uneven burning, and avoid flame flare-ups and soot deposit. Drafts can also blow debris into the flame where it can catch fire.

  • Always burn candles in a well-ventilated room. Do not burn too many candles in a small area where airflow is limited.

  • Extinguish and do not relight candle once the wax remaining is ½ inch from the bottom.

  • Never touch or move a burning candle or container candle when the wax is liquid.

  • Never use a knife or sharp object to remove wax drippings from glass container.

  • Extinguish any candles that repeatedly smokes, flickers, or if the flame becomes too high. Let cool, trim the wick, and make sure it is in a safe, non-drafty area before relighting.

Enjoy!
