Rechargeable flameless votive candles are No.1 for home safety!
Imagine this image straight out of a romantic movie…… The dinner table is set for two…. There is a seductive glow of flickering candles throughout the room that completes the romantic mood. Many couples will commemorate a romantic evening dinner with a scene like this without realizing the potential dangers of improper candle use. Candles Recharge wants to caution you that, while decorative and pretty smelling candles may be an attractive addition to your home décor, if used improperly, they can be a serious fire hazard.
More than one–third of home candle fires are started in the bedroom. Most candle fires are caused by combustibles being too close to the candle, such as curtains or tissues. The next common cause is when candles are knocked over by wind, doors, children or pets. On Average a FIRE cause by a CANDLE in a home is reported to a U.S. Fire Department every 40 minutes!
One of the most important ways to eliminate your risk of a home fire due to candles is to buy flameless rechargeable votive candles.
This way you never have to worry about:
- Keeping burning candles within sight and use candles only in rooms where there is a responsible adult to control and oversee the flame.
- Extinguish all candles when leaving a room or before going to sleep and not using candles in sleeping areas.
- Keeping candles away from combustibles such as clothing, books, decorations, window blinds, and curtains.
- Keeping candles away from high–traffic areas where they can be easily knocked over, including any area accessible to children or pets.
- Placing candles on stable surfaces in non–tip holders that grip the candle.
- Placing candles in holders that can’t burn and are big enough to collect dripping wax.
By buying our flameless rechargeable flickering votive candles you eliminate all the risks that you would otherwise face if you used real candles in your home.
