How Commercial Liquid Wax Burners Work
Liquid wax burners operate on a brilliantly simple principle. An electric heating element warms a reservoir that holds special liquid paraffin wax. The unit maintains a constant temperature—usually between 60-80°C—that's hot enough to keep the wax in liquid form but not so hot it burns. When you insert a wick, it draws up the liquid wax through capillary action, just like a traditional candle, but with better consistency. The flame burns cleanly with minimal smoke or soot, while the burner keeps the wax supply steady for hours of continuous, hassle-free operation—perfect for full-service dinner shifts!

Safety Guidelines

Top Tips for Using Commercial Liquid Wax Burners
To maximise your wax burners' performance, allow them to warm up for 10-15 minutes before service begins. When refilling, let units cool completely first to prevent accidents, and use a small funnel to avoid messy spills. Trim wicks to about 8mm for the cleanest flame and longest life. For maintenance, wipe exterior surfaces with a damp cloth regularly, and clean the reservoir with warm water when changing wax types to prevent mixing scents or colours.
