Why does my Woodwick Candle burn unevenly?
Uneven burning of a Woodwick Candle can be attributed to several factors. One common reason is the way the candle was initially burned. For optimal performance, Woodwick Candles should be allowed to create a full melt pool during the first burn, which can take several hours. When the candle does not burn long enough, the wax may not melt completely to the edge of the container, leading to tunneling or uneven burning in subsequent uses.
Another reason for uneven burning could be related to environmental factors. Drafts, air conditioning, or ventilation can impact the flame and the way the wax melts. It is advisable to position the candle in a location that is free from drafts and has stable air conditions.
Additionally, the wick’s trimming can also influence the burn. If the wick is too long, it can cause soot and lead to an uneven burn. It is recommended to maintain the wick at about one quarter inch before lighting. If the candle continues to burn unevenly, checking the base of the candle for any obstructions may help.
