In addition, it's best to store any remaining fuel with ethanol out of reach of pets and children, to avoid any accidents from occurring.

Maintenance is easy

The bioethanol fuel is poured into the burner, and then ignited. The flame and heat produced by the burning fuel can be controlled with a slider. (Not all designs have this feature). By changing the amount of oxygen supplied to the fire, you can adjust the speed at which the fuel burns and also how high the flame burns.

The soot created from the combustion of fuel can be easily removed with an easy, clean cloth. The only other requirement for maintenance is to ensure that the burner is filled with the correct fuel and making sure it is not too far from any fire-prone objects or supplies.

Certain models come with remote controls that allow 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 are equipped with brackets that permit you to connect them to the ceiling in a flat or sloping manner.
