Overview
The 6 hour chafing fuel 12 pack from Gas One (part number CFD-6-12, the pack size Gas One lists in its wholesale catalog) contains twelve wick cans of liquid, diethylene glycol based fuel. It is the working size for caterers, banquet halls, churches and restaurants that set up a buffet line more than once in a while: twelve cans fill six two-holder chafing dishes for one event, or one dish for six events.
Key features
- 12 cans, Gas One part number CFD-6-12
- Each can designed to run for 6 hours, per Gas One
- Pre-inserted wick: uncap, place and light, with nothing to assemble
- Resealable cap keeps leftover fuel for the next event
- Gas One applications: chafing dishes, room service, beverage urns, catering and large food setups
Where to use it
Catered events, banquet and conference buffets, hotel room service, restaurant buffet lines, church and community dinners, and coffee or hot-water urns at events.
How to use
- Count fuel holders: plan one can per holder and set a few spares aside.
- Before lighting, make sure frames are level, water pans are filled as the dish maker directs, and nothing combustible (linens, curtains, paper decor) is near the flame.
- Uncap the cans, set them in the holders and light the wicks with a long match or long-reach lighter.
- During service, do not refuel, move or carry a dish with a lit can underneath.
- After service, put the flames out as the label directs, let the cans cool, reseal the ones with fuel left and store them sealed.
Compatibility and cautions
Brief staff before an event: who lights, who monitors, and who puts the flames out. Use the cans only in chafing dish and urn fuel holders, follow your venue’s fire rules, keep cans out of reach of children, and store them in a cool place away from heat and flame. Read the can label before use. Chafing fuel ships by ground only to the contiguous US and is not returnable for a change of mind; see the return and refund policy.

FAQ
Is chafing fuel safe to use indoors?
Wick chafing fuel is used indoors at buffets and in room service, and Gas One lists both as applications. Keep flames clear of combustibles, follow your venue's fire rules and the can label, and never leave lit cans unattended.
How do you light chafing fuel?
Remove the cap, place the can in the chafing dish's fuel holder and light the wick with a long match or long-reach lighter. Gas One's inserted wick is designed to be easy to light.
How do you put out chafing fuel?
Follow the directions on the can label, usually by covering the flame with a snuffer or the fuel holder's cover. Let the can cool before you reseal it with its cap.
Can I cook with chafing fuel?
Gas One markets this fuel for keeping food warm in chafing dishes and beverage urns, not as a cooking fuel. Cook the food fully first, then hold it warm.
