Abstract
A paraffin warmer is disclosed herein, which allows paraffin to be easily heated to a melting temperature within a tub and transferred to a container via a heated spigot. A spigot has a liquid channel that allows liquid paraffin to flow from a cavity of the tub out the spigot into the container that may be at room temperature. The tub of the paraffin warmer and a liquid channel through the spigot may be heated with first and second heating elements to prevent liquid paraffin from solidifying in the liquid channel of the spigot that would clog the spigot. The first heating element may be wrapped around the spigot to heat the liquid channel from where the paraffin exits the tub to the distal end of the spigot.
Claims17
A paraffin warmer, comprising:
- a tub for holding paraffin;
- a spigot for dispensing paraffin from the tub, the spigot attached to a lower portion of the tub;
- and
- a first heating element attached to the spigot, the first heating element heating a liquid channel of the spigot to at least a paraffin melting point.
A method of dispensing paraffin into a container, comprising:
- disposing solid paraffin into a tub of a paraffin warmer;
- heating a spigot and a tub of the paraffin warmer to at least a melting point of the paraffin to melt paraffin in the liquid channel;
- disposing the container below a spout of the spigot;
- and
- opening a valve between a cavity of the tub and the liquid channel to allow melted paraffin to travel through the heated liquid channel out the spout of the spigot into the container.
