Why should you only burn candles in increments of 2 hours?Updated 2 months ago
Burning candles for around 2 hours at a time helps to keep the wick from getting too long, so the flame burns at a steady, even temperature. This reduces the risk of smoking or sooting, especially in glass holders or sleeves.
While 2-hour burns are ideal for everyday use, longer burn times are perfectly fine for weddings and events. Just be sure to trim the wick to 5mm before lighting for the best results.
