Soy Candle Burn Time
Soy Candles Burn Longer! But how much longer?
We estimate the burn time at a lower per hour rate (10 hours per ounce of
wax) to ensure our statements are fair. However in conducting our own
tests as well as receiving customer feedback, we have not experienced less
than a 12 hour burn time per ounce of soy wax. We like to exceed your
expectations in burning our candles.
Soy Candles burn approximately 50% longer than those made of
paraffin.
This is due to the fact that soy wax has a lower melting point than
paraffin.
Least estimated burn times for our candles are as follows:
4 oz. Hexagon Jar - Approximately 40 to 48 Hours
8 oz. Apothecary Jar - Approximately 80 to 96 Hours
12 oz. Apothecary Jar - Approximately 120 to 144 Hours
16 oz. Mason Jar - Approximately 128 To 160 Hours
18 oz. Apothecary Jar - Approximately 144 to 180 Hours
22 oz. Apothecary Jar - Approximately 220 to 260 Hours
28 oz. Apothecary Jar - Approximately 280 to 400 Hours
Average yield in actual testing shows our candles use 0.12 ounces of wax, or
less, per hour while burning. (10 to12 hours per ounce on average)
So, a 28 ounce candle will burn over 280 hours on average for a single wick.
To achieve this time, wicks were trimmed to 1/4" and we burned the candle
for a 2 hour period each time we lit the candle. No drafts were present during
any burn time. Room was heated to 70 degrees.
Note: All times are approximate. Actual burn times depend upon many factors
such as air drafts, age of candle, style of container, type of wick, scent,
trimmed wick and room temperature. No candle company can guarantee an
exact burn time. These are homemade creations so this information is
intended to give you an estimate.
