Bio Ethanol Fireplaces

Ethanol fireplaces can give an inviting atmosphere to any space, without the need for expensive construction work or gas supply. They are the safest fireplace type that is available.

If you are using only bio-ethanol fuel specifically formulated for the fire, and adhere to all safety guidelines then your fireplace will perform safely.

Easy installation

Ethanol fires are a fast and easy solution for homeowners who wish to make their living spaces more attractive or create a focal point for their home decor. They do not require a flue, and they don't release dangerous smoke and you don't have to worry about the build up of soot on your ceilings or walls.

It doesn't matter if you choose the complete fire suite - such as Mano Mano's Adam Solus Fireplace Suite in Oak with Colorado Bio Ethanol Fire in Black from PS569 - or a freestanding model that can be moved from room to room (such as the Planika Petit, PS191), installation is simple and requires no specialist help. All you have to do is ensure that the wall or ceiling is strong enough and follow the guidelines for the model you have chosen.

Most fireplaces made of ethanol that are wall-mounted come with the necessary hardware to mount them either like flat screen TVs or recess into the wall. It takes an experienced professional around an hour to install the brackets, extensions, and find the studs.

You also have a choice of automatic or manual bio ethanol burners. The automatic burner keeps the fuel from the flames, so that it will burn for longer without the danger of overheating or running out. A manual burner operates in the same way as an old-fashioned fireplace, but you'll need matches or lighters to ignite the flames.

It's important to remember when choosing a bio-ethanol burner, the burner should be covered with non-combustible materials. This will ensure that nothing touches the burning fuel. If you don't cover your burner, it could cause the fire to overheat. This can damage the fireplace.

Ethanol fires are a great alternative for those looking to create a dramatic focal point in their home but don't have the money or time to install gas or wood fireplaces. They're an excellent option for new homes or renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. Since they do not generate soot or ash, there's no maintenance issues to worry about or worry about.

Designs and styles

Bio ethanol fireplaces come in a variety of styles and designs. Some are more traditional in their wood-burning look, whereas others are designed to be modern and sleek. No matter what style the fireplaces all have the same benefits: genuine flames with no fumes or harmful gases.

Ethanol fires can be mounted to 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 the other hand, are fixed to the wall and require special mounting equipment. They must also comply with certain distances between flammable substances and the unit.

The fire is made by a burner pan located on the bottom of the fireplace. Fuel is poured into the pan and the fire is then lit by a long lighter. It takes around 15 minutes for the flames to reach their maximum potential. Once the flames are set and the fire is ablaze, you can relax, unwind and enjoy the warm ambience of your home.

Certain ethanol fireplaces come with adjustable temperature settings. This allows you to adjust the amount of heat that the fireplace produces.

Another benefit of ethanol fireplaces is that they don't require a chimney or flue. This makes them a great alternative for new homes or older homes that do not have traditional chimney breasts or fireplaces. Bio-ethanol fires do not emit harmful gases or ash that can be harmful to those who suffer from respiratory issues.

Installing bio ethanol fireplaces in your home is also simple. While the exact time to install is dependent on the model you choose however, the majority of them can be installed relatively quickly. You can also choose a freestanding portable fireplace that you can carry with you when you decide to move, 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 big benefit that bioethanol fires have over traditional wood or gas fires is that they don't require an exhaust pipe to run. In the end, there is no chance of chimney fires which could result from the accumulation of tar or a blockage in the flue.

A bio ethanol fireplace also does not produce many particles that could harm the air quality, which is great news for people who suffer from asthma or allergies. Another advantage is that there's no smoke generated by the fire and therefore it doesn't create a bad smell in the room.

Bioethanol fireplaces generate an enormous amount of heat when compared to wood-burning fires. This means you can keep your furniture in close proximity to the fire without worrying about catching fire, which could be dangerous for any valuables.

If you choose to install a freestanding bioethanol fireplace, there are a few options to pick from. You can go for modern and sleek design by installing it on the wall, or you can get an recessed model that will fit in with the style of your space.

Another thing to consider is whether you would prefer either a manual or automatic 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.

It is essential to let the flames completely burn out and wait until the flame cools before refilling. Otherwise the ethanol will vaporize and you'll have to start over.

Most manufacturers suggest waiting at least 45 minutes before refilling your fire. This will allow you enough time to safely extinguish the flames, and then remove any flammable material from the fire. To prevent accidents, keep any remaining fuel ethanol away from pets and children.

Ease of maintenance

The bio ethanol fuel is poured into the burner, and then ignited. As the fuel burns, it creates the appearance of a flame and the heat can be adjusted using an adjustable slider (not all designs feature this). By changing the amount of oxygen fed to the fire, you can alter the speed at which fuel burns and how high the flame burns.

As the fuel burns it creates some soot, which can be easily cleaned by wiping down the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other thing to do is keeping the burner filled with the correct fuel and ensuring that it's a safe distance away from any fire-prone objects or other equipment.

Bio-ethanol wooden fireplaces are easy to install, and you don't have to worry about chimneys or building codes. This gives you great flexibility when designing your home and where you want to enjoy the warmth of your fireplace. You can also opt to have a freestanding model that can be moved from room to room.

Wall-mounted bio ethanol fireplaces are able to be installed on your wall easily, and certain models can be rotated by 180 degrees so you can move the flame and heat to the desired location of your living space. Certain models come with remote control that allows you to control the fireplace from your couch.

Many wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces come with brackets that enable them to be fixed to a flat ceiling or an inclined one. This allows you to install the fireplace wherever you want it, and be capable of turning it on or off and alter the flame's height, and set the temperature using the remote control.

When you're not using the ethanol fireplace, be sure to shut it off and keep it away from any flammable objects or materials. Do not pour any fuel into the burner until it is at temperatures that are at or near the level of ambient temperature. Be cautious when handling it because it is very hot.
