Bio Ethanol Fireplaces

Ethanol fireplaces can give warmth to any room without the need for expensive construction work or gas supply. They are the most secure kind of fire available.

If you are using only bio-ethanol fuel specifically designed for the fire and follow all safety instructions then your fireplace will perform in a safe manner.

Installation is easy

Ethanol fireplaces are a straightforward and quick solution for homeowners who want to transform their living area or add a focal piece to their home decor. There is no need for chimneys and they don't produce dangerous smoke. Soot won't accumulate on your ceilings or walls.

Installation is simple and doesn't require any assistance from a professional. All you need to do is ensure that the ceiling or wall is strong enough and follow the instructions for your specific model.

Most fireplaces made of ethanol that are wall-mounted include the hardware necessary to mount them like flat screen TVs or recess into the wall. You'll need to find the studs and fit the brackets and extensions however, it should not take more than an hour for an expert to do this.

You can also choose of manual or automated bioethanol burners. The automatic burner keeps the fuel from the flames, so that it can burn for longer without the risk of overheating or consuming. Manual burners operate exactly like fireplaces, with the exception that you'll require matches or lighters to ignite the flames.

When choosing a burner for your bio-ethanol fireplace it's worth remembering that the burner must be covered with non-combustible materials to make sure that nothing gets in contact with the burning fuel. If you don't cover your burner, it could cause the fire to overheat. This can damage the fireplace.

Ethanol fireplaces are a great alternative for those who want to create a dramatic feature in their home but don't have the budget or time to install gas or wood fireplaces. These are ideal for renovations and new homes in which chimney breasts were removed. They don't produce soot or ash, so there are no maintenance concerns.

Designs and styles

There are many different styles and designs that bio-ethanol fireplaces can be found in. Some have a more traditional wood-burning fireplace look, while others are designed to look sleek and modern. No matter what style they all offer the same benefits: authentic flames with no smoke or toxic gases.

Ethanol fires can be mounted on the wall or freestanding. Freestanding models are more movable and can be moved around the room in any direction you like. Wall-mounted models, on contrary, are fixed to the wall and may require special mounting equipment. They also have to meet certain clearance distances from flammable substances.

The fire itself comes from the burner pan, which is located on the bottom of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into the pan, and the fire is lit using an extended lighter. It takes around 15 minutes for the flames to reach their full potential. Once the fire is lit, you can sit back and relax in your home's warm atmosphere.

Some ethanol fire places even offer temperature settings that can be altered. This lets you adjust the amount of heat your fireplace generates.

Another benefit of ethanol fireplaces is that they don't require a chimney or flue. This makes them an excellent alternative for new homes or older homes without traditional chimney breasts or fireplaces. Additionally, a bio-ethanol fireplace does not generate gas or ash which could be harmful for those with respiratory issues.

Bioethanol fireplaces are simple to install in your home. Although the exact time for installation will depend on the model you select, most can be installed relatively quickly. You can opt for a portable freestanding fireplace that can be transported with you in the event that you decide to move. This is an ideal option for living arrangements that are temporary. The ease of installation is an important factor for many people and is something that should not be overlooked when looking for the perfect fireplace.

No flu

The main advantage that bio ethanol fires have over traditional wood or gas fires is that they don't require a flue to operate. In the end, there is no chance of chimney fires that could be caused by the build-up of tar, or an obstruction in the flue.

A bio ethanol fireplace also doesn't produce a lot of particulates that can damage the air, which is great news for those suffering from allergies or asthma. The fire doesn't produce smoke, so it does not create a unpleasant odor in the room.

Unlike a wood-burning fireplace, bioethanol fires don't lose a lot of heat to the chimney, so it can generate a tremendous amount of heat for its size. This allows you to keep your furniture close to the fire without worrying about it burning and causing danger.

There are many designs to choose from for a bio-ethanol freestanding fireplace. You can pick a wall-mounted model for an elegant, modern appearance or a recessed one which will blend in with the design of your room.

Another thing to consider is whether you would prefer an automatic or a manual burner. A manual burner requires you to light the fuel directly from the reservoir, while an automatic one will automatically light the fire when the tank is empty.

When you're done using your Bioethanol Fire fireplace it's important to let the flames burn out completely and wait until the fireplace is cool before refilling. If you don't do this, the ethanol might evaporate and you will have to start over.

The majority of manufacturers recommend waiting at least 45 minutes prior to refilling your fire. This gives you enough time to safely remove the flames, and remove any flammable materials from the fire. To avoid accidents, store any spare ethanol fuel out of reach of children and pets.

Maintenance ease

The bio ethanol fuel is added to the burner and then ignited. The flame and heat produced by the burning fuel can be controlled with an adjustable slider. (Not all designs have this feature). By altering the amount of oxygen is pumped into the fire, you can alter how fast the fuel burns and also the intensity of the flame.

The soot that is produced by the burning of fuel can be easily removed with the help of a soft clean cloth. The only other maintenance required is to ensure that the burner is full of the correct fuel and ensuring that it is kept away from any fire-prone objects or supplies.

Bioethanol fireplaces are simple to install and you don't need to worry about chimneys or building codes. This gives you a lot of flexibility in designing your home, and the location you wish to enjoy the warmth of your fireplace. You can even opt to have a free-standing model that can be moved from room to room.

Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces can be fitted into your wall easily, and certain models can be rotated by 180 degrees to direct the flame and heat to the desired location of your living space. Certain models come with remote controls that allow you to control the fireplace from the comfort of your couch.

Many of the wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are equipped with brackets that allow them to be affixed to a flat ceiling or sloped one. This allows you to place the fireplace wherever you want it and still be able to turn it on or off and adjust the flame's height, and adjust the temperature using the remote control.

When you're not using your ethanol fireplace, make sure to turn it off and keep it away from any flammable items or materials. Don't pour any more fuel into the burner until it is at the temperature of room temperature. Be cautious when handling it because it's extremely hot.
