Bio Ethanol Fireplaces

Ethanol fireplaces are great for adding a warm and cozy atmosphere to any room without the need for expensive structure work or gas supply. They are also the most secure kind of fire that is available.

If you use bio-ethanol fuel that has been specifically formulated for your fire and you follow the safety instructions the fireplace will be very safe to operate.

Installation is simple

Ethanol fires are a quick and easy option for homeowners who wish to transform their living space or add a focal point to their home decor. They don’t require a flue and don’t create dangerous smoke, so you don’t have to worry about the build up of soot on your ceilings or walls.

All you have to do is make sure that the wall or ceiling is strong enough and follow the guidelines for your specific model.

Most fireplaces made of ethanol that are wall-mounted include the necessary hardware to install them as a flat screen TV or recess into the wall. You’ll need to locate the studs, and then install the brackets and extensions however it will not take more than one hour for an expert to do this.

There is also the option of manual or automatic bio ethanol burners. An automatic burner will keep the fuel at a safe distance from the flames, ensuring it will burn longer without risk of running out or overheating. A manual burner operates similarly to a traditional fireplace, but you’ll need matches or a lighter to light the flames.

It’s important to remember when choosing a bio ethanol burner, it must be covered with non-combustible material. This will ensure that nothing touches the burning fuel. If you don’t cover the burner, the fire could become too hot and damage the fireplace.

Ethanol fires are an excellent option for people who want to create a dramatic focal point in their home, but don’t have the funds or time to set up gas or wood fireplaces. They’re an excellent choice for new homes and renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. Since they do not generate soot or ash, there are no issues with maintenance also.

Designs and styles

Bio-ethanol fireplaces are available in various styles and designs. Some bio ethanol fireplaces have the traditional wood-burning appearance and others sport modern and sleek designs. Whatever the design, each type offers the same benefits: genuine flame ambience with no gas or smoke.

Ethanol fireplaces can be freestanding or wall mounted. Freestanding models are more portable and can be moved around the room according to what is desired. Wall-mounted models, on other hand, are fixed to the wall and require special mounting equipment. They also must comply with certain clearance distances from flammable materials.

The fire itself originates from a burner pan located on the bottom of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into the pan, and the fire is then lit with a long lighter. It takes about 15 minutes for the flames to reach their maximum potential. Once the fire is lit, you can sit back and relax in your home’s warm atmosphere.

Certain ethanol fire places offer heating settings that can be altered. This allows you to adjust the amount of heat that your fireplace generates.

Another benefit of ethanol fireplaces is that they do not require any chimney or flue. This makes them an excellent option for new homes or older ones that don’t have traditional chimney breasts or fireplaces. Furthermore, a bio-ethanol fire place does not produce any gas or ash which could be harmful for people with respiratory problems.

Bioethanol fireplaces are easy to install in your home. While the exact installation time will depend on the model you choose the majority are installed in a short time. You can also opt for an open-air fireplace which you can take with you in the event of a relocate, making it a good option to use as a temporary living arrangement. It is important to consider the ease of installation when purchasing the fireplace.

No Flu

The major advantage that bio ethanol fires have over traditional gas or wood fires is that they don’t require a flue in order to function. This means that there’s no chance of chimney fires that could be caused by the build-up of tar, or a blockage in the flue.

A bio-ethanol fireplace doesn’t produce numerous particles that could cause harm to the air. This is a great thing for people with allergies or asthma. The fire doesn’t produce smoke, so it doesn’t create a bad smell in the room.

Unlike a wood-burning fireplace, bio ethanol fires don’t lose a lot of heat through the chimney, and therefore can generate a tremendous amount of heat for its size. This means that you can keep your furniture near the flame without worrying about catching alight, which could be dangerous for any valuables.

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

A manual or automatic burner is a different option to consider. A manual burner requires you to ignite the fuel directly from the reservoir while an automatic one will automatically light the fire when the tank is empty.

It is important that you allow the flames to fully burn out and wait until the burner cools before refilling. Otherwise, the ethanol will evaporate and you’ll have to start all over again.

The majority of manufacturers advise that you wait at minimum 45 minutes between refilling your fire, so that you have plenty of time to extinguish the flames and ensure that all flammable materials are away from the flame. Additionally, it is recommended to store any leftover ethanol fuel somewhere out of reach of children and pets, to avoid any accidents from occurring.

Easy maintenance

Ethanol fireplaces work by pouring bio ethanol fuel into the fireplace and lighting it. As the fuel burns, it generates the appearance of a flame and the heat can be controlled by an adjustable slider (not all designs feature this). By adjusting the amount of oxygen that is fed to the fire you can alter the speed at which the fuel is burned and how high the flame burns.

The soot that is produced by the fuel burning is easily removed using a the help of a soft clean cloth. The only other requirement for maintenance is to ensure that the fireplace is properly fueled and making sure it is not too far from any flammable items or supplies.

Bioethanol fireplaces are easy to install and you don’t need to be concerned about chimneys or building codes. This allows you to be very flexible when designing your home and where you want to relax in the warmth of your fireplace. You can even choose a freestanding model that can be moved.

Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces can be installed on your wall with ease, and some models can be rotated 180 degrees so you can move the flame and heat into the desired area of your home. Certain models come with remote control that allows you to control the fireplace from the comfort of your couch.

For maximum flexibility, a majority of the plug and play’ wall-mounted bio ethanol fireplaces come with brackets that permit you to attach them to a flat or sloping ceiling. Installing the fireplace wherever you want is possible, however, you can still use the remote control to shut it off, adjust flame height and adjust the temperature.

When you are not using your ethanol fire, make sure that it is turned off and a safe distance away from any flammable materials or equipment. Do not add any fuel into the burner until the burner has reached temperatures that are at or near the level of ambient temperature. Be careful when handling it since it is extremely hot.
