My flame is puffing and creating small sparks. Is this dangerous and what can I do to solve it?
The situation you’re experiencing can arise if the wick and or TenderFuel have absorbed moisture from their surroundings. This can happen if the lamp hasn’t been used for a period of time and left with fuel inside. The small water droplets you see and the are a result of this absorbed moisture, which burst when the fluid is heated by the steel wick to a certain temperature. Rest assured, this is not a hazardous situation, and the fix is simple. First, pour out the existing fluid in the tank, then refill it. When lighting it, ensure the wick is sufficiently moistened with Tenderfuel.
Does the wick need maintenance?
There are no special maintenance requirements for the wick. Possible dust can be dusted off with a cloth and the wick itself comes with a lifetime guarantee provided it’s being used in combination with our Tenderfuel.
