Bio Ethanol Fireplaces

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

As long as you only make use of bio-ethanol fuel that has been specifically designed for your fire and you follow the safety guidelines the fireplace will be safe to operate.

Easy installation

Ethanol fires are a simple and easy solution for homeowners looking to transform their living space or add a focal point to their home decor. They do not require a flue, and don't create dangerous smoke and you don't have to worry about the build up of soot on your ceilings or walls.

Installation is easy and does not require any expert assistance. All you need to do is ensure that the wall or ceiling is strong enough and follow the directions for the model you have chosen.

Most fireplaces made of ethanol that are wall-mounted come with the equipment needed to mount them like a flat screen TV or recess into the wall. You'll need to locate the studs and install the brackets and extensions however, it shouldn't take more than an hour for a professional to do so.

You also have a choice of automatic or manual bio ethanol burners. An automatic burner will keep the fuel away from the flames, ensuring it will burn longer without risk of running out or overheating. A manual burner works similarly to an old-fashioned fireplace, but you'll require matches or lighters to light the flames.

When you choose a burner to use in your bio-ethanol fireplace, it is important to remember that the burner should be covered by non-combustible materials to make sure that nothing comes into contact with the burning fuel. If you don't cover the burner, the flame could get too hot and cause damage to the fireplace.

Ethanol fires are a great option for people who want to create a dramatic focal point in their home, but don't have the budget or time to install gas or wood fireplaces. They're an excellent choice for new homes and renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. They don't generate soot or ash, which means there's no need for maintenance.

Designs and styles

There are a number of different styles and designs that bio-ethanol fireplaces can be found in. Some bio ethanol fireplaces feature a traditional wood-burning look, while others feature a sleek and modern design. Whatever the design the fireplaces all have the same benefits: authentic flame ambience without fumes or harmful gases.

Ethanol fires can be wall-mounted or freestanding. Freestanding models are more portable and can be moved around the room in any direction you like. Wall-mounted models, on the other hand, are anchored to the wall and may require special mounting equipment. They also must comply with certain clearance distances to avoid flammable materials.

The fire itself is created by a burner pan situated on the bottom of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into the pan and the fire is then lit with an extended lighter. It takes about 15 minutes for the flames to reach their full potential. Once the flames have been established, it's time to sit back, relax and enjoy the warm atmosphere of your home.

Certain ethanol fire places have temperature settings that can be altered. This lets you alter the amount of heat that your fireplace produces, which can be useful if you want to give you more warmth than just ambiance.

A further benefit of ethanol fires is that it is no need for a chimney or flue. This makes them a great option for homes that are new or older homes without traditional chimney breasts or fireplaces. A bio-ethanol fire does not emit harmful gasses or ash, which can be dangerous for people suffering from respiratory ailments.

Installing bioethanol fireplaces in your home is also simple. Although the exact time for installation is dependent on the model you choose the majority can be installed relatively quickly. You can choose a portable freestanding fireplace which can be taken with you when you relocate. This is an ideal option for living arrangements that are temporary. It is crucial to think about the ease of installation when purchasing a fireplace.

No Flu

The most significant benefit of bioethanol over traditional wood fireplace or natural gas fires is the fact that they do not require a chimney in order to function. This means that there is no risk of chimney fires that could be caused by a build-up of tar or a blockage in the flue.

A bio ethanol fireplace doesn't create a lot of particulates that can damage the air quality, which is good news for those who suffer from allergies or asthma. Another benefit is that there isn't any smoke produced by the fireplace and, therefore, it doesn't cause a bad smell in the room.

Unlike a wood-burning fireplace, bio ethanol fires don't lose much heat through the chimney, which means it can generate a tremendous amount of heat for its size. This means that you can keep your furniture close to the fire without worrying about catching alight which could be dangerous for any valuables.

There are a variety of designs available for a bioethanol freestanding fireplace. You can choose modern and sleek design with a wall-mounted model, or you can get one that is recessed to blend into the style of your room.

Another thing to consider is whether you would prefer a manual or an automatic burner. A manual burner requires you to light the fuel from the reservoir. An automatic burner will automatically light your fire once the tank is empty.

It is essential to allow the flames to completely burn out and wait until the flame cools down before refilling. If you don't do this, the ethanol may evaporate and you will have to start again.

Most manufacturers recommend that you allow at minimum 45 minutes between refilling your fire so you have enough time to put out the flames and ensure that all flammable substances are removed from the fire. To avoid accidents, store any spare ethanol fuel out of reach of children and pets.

Easy maintenance

The bio ethanol fuel is put into the burner and then lit. The flame and heat produced by the burning fuel can be controlled by an adjustable slider. (Not all designs have this feature). By adjusting the amount of oxygen that is supplied to the fire you can change how quickly the fuel burns and also how high the flame burns.

The soot produced by the burning of fuel is easily removed using a the help of a soft, clean cloth. The only other maintenance required is to ensure that the fireplace is full of the correct fuel and making sure it is kept away from any flammable items or supplies.

Bio ethanol fireplaces are also easy to install and you don't have to worry about chimneys or building codes. This allows you to be very flexible when designing your home and where you want to sit and enjoy the warmth of your fireplace. You could even choose to have a free-standing fireplace that you can move from room to room.

Wall-mounted bio ethanol fireplaces can be incorporated into walls easily, and certain models can be rotated 180 degrees so you can focus the heat and flame to the desired space of your home. You can also mount an electronic remote control on some of the models to control the entire thing from the comfortable sofa.

For maximum versatility, many of the plug and play' wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are equipped with brackets that let you attach them to the ceiling in a flat or sloping manner. The fireplace can be installed wherever you'd like is possible however, you can still make use of the remote control to turn it off, adjust flame height and set the temperature.

If you're not using your ethanol fireplace, be sure to turn it off and keep it clear from any flammable objects or materials. Do not add any fuel into the burner until it is at temperatures that are at or near the level of ambient temperature. Be careful when handling it since it is very hot.
