Bio Ethanol Fireplaces

Ethanol fireplaces are great for bringing a cozy feel to any space without the expense of structure work or gas supply. They are also the most secure type of fire available.

If you utilize bio-ethanol fuels that have been specifically designed for your fire and follow the safety instructions the fireplace will be very safe to operate.

Installation is simple

Ethanol fires are a quick and easy solution for homeowners looking to make their living spaces more attractive or create a focal point for their home decor. You don't need chimneys and they don't emit dangerous smoke. Smoke won't linger on your walls or ceilings.

Whether you opt for a full fire suite - such as Mano Mano's Adam Solus Fireplace Suite in Oak with Colorado Bio Ethanol Fire in Black, from PS569 - or an independent model that can be moved from room to room (such as the Planika Petit, PS191) Installation is easy and requires no specialist help. It is all you have to do is sure that your wall or ceiling is sturdy and follow the directions for the model you pick.

If you opt for an ethanol tabletop fireplace that is wall-mounted they are usually equipped with the necessary hardware to allow them to be mounted as a flat-screen television or recessed into the wall. It takes an experienced professional around an hour to install the brackets, extensions and locate the studs.

You can also choose between automatic and manual bio ethanol burning equipment. A burner that is automated will keep the fuel away from the flames, which means it will burn longer without the risk of burning out or overheating. A manual burner works similarly to a traditional fireplace, but you'll need to use matches or a lighter to light the flames.

It's important to remember when selecting a bioethanol 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 could cause damage to the fireplace.

Ethanol fireplaces 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 set up a wood or gas fireplace. They are perfect for new or renovated homes where chimney breasts were removed. They don't create soot or ash, which means there's no need for maintenance.

Designs and styles

Bio ethanol fireplaces come in different styles and designs. Some bio ethanol fireplaces feature an old-fashioned wood-burning style and others sport modern and sleek designs. Each type has the same benefits, regardless of the style: a real flame ambience without harmful gasses or smoke.

Ethanol fireplaces can be wall mounted. Freestanding models can be moved around a space to meet your requirements. Wall-mounted models are attached to the walls and require special mounting gear. They also have to meet certain distances between flammable materials and the unit.

The fire is made by a burner pan that is located in the middle of the tabletop fireplace. The fuel is poured into this pan and the fire is lit with a long-lasting lighter. The process takes around 15 minutes for the fire to reach its full potential for flame. Once the flames are set then it's time to relax, sit back and enjoy the warm ambience of your home.

Certain ethanol fire places have temperature settings that can be adjusted. This allows you to adjust the amount of heat that the fireplace produces.

A further benefit of ethanol fires is that it is no need for an chimney or flue. This makes them an excellent alternative for older homes or modern homes that do not have chimney fireplaces or traditional fireplaces. Additionally, a bio-ethanol fireplace does not generate gas or ash, which can be dangerous for people with respiratory problems.

Installing bioethanol fireplaces into your home is also easy. The exact time to install them will depend on the model that you choose. However, the majority of models can be installed fairly quickly. You can also choose a portable fireplace that you can carry with you if you ever relocate, making it a good option for a temporary living arrangement. It is crucial to think about the ease of installation when purchasing the fireplace.

No flu

The main advantage bio ethanol fires have over traditional gas or wood fires is that they don't need an exhaust pipe to run. In the end, there's no chance of chimney fires that can result from the accumulation of tar or obstructions in the flue.

A bio-ethanol fireplace also does not produce many particles that could harm the air, which is great news for those who suffer from asthma or allergies. The fireplace doesn't release smoke, so it won't cause bad odor in the room.

As opposed to a wood-burning fireplace a bio ethanol fire doesn't lose a lot of heat to the chimney, so it can produce an incredible amount of heat for its size. This means that you can keep your furniture close to the fire without having to worry about catching a flame that could be hazardous for your valuables.

There are a variety of designs available for a bio-ethanol freestanding fireplace. You can go for a sleek and modern look by installing it on the wall or opt for an recessed model that will blend into the style of your space.

Another thing to think about is whether you want either a manual or automatic burner. A manual burner requires that you ignite the fuel from the reservoir. A burner that is automated will light your fire automatically once the tank is empty.

When you're done using your bio ethanol fireplace, it is essential to let the flames burn out completely and to wait until the burner has cooled before refueling. If you don't, the ethanol could evaporate and you'll need to start over.

The majority of manufacturers advise that you wait at least 45 minutes between refilling your fire so you have enough time to properly remove the flames and ensure that all flammable substances are removed from the fire. Additionally, it is recommended to store any remaining ethanol fuel somewhere out of reach of pets and children, to avoid any accidents from happening.

Ease of maintenance

Ethanol fireplaces function by pouring bio-ethanol fuel into the burner and lighting it. The heat and flame produced by the burning fuel can be controlled using an adjustable slider. (Not all designs come with this feature). By adjusting the amount of oxygen that is pumped into the fire, you can alter how fast the fuel burns, and the intensity of the flame.

When the fuel is burned, it creates a small amount of soot. However, this is easily cleaned by wiping down the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other maintenance is to keep the burner topped up with the right fuel and ensure that it's not in contact with items or materials that are flammable.

Another advantage of bio ethanol fires is that you can install them almost anywhere, without having to worry about building regulations or chimneys. This provides you with a large amount of flexibility in the design of your home and also where you can experience the warmth and beauty of your new fireplace. You can also choose a freestanding model that can be moved.

Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are simple to install and some models allow you to rotate the unit by 180 degrees, allowing you direct the flame and heat to the desired area of the room. You can also mount a remote control onto certain models to control the entire thing from the comfortable sofa.

Many wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces come with brackets to allow them to be affixed to an unfinished ceiling or a sloping one. The fireplace can be installed wherever you like is possible, but you can still use the remote control to shut it off or adjust the flame's height and set the temperature.

When you're not using the ethanol fireplace, make sure to shut it off and keep it clear from any flammable objects or materials. Also, don't add fuel to the burner until it's cooled to room temperature. Also, be careful when handling the burner since it is extremely hot.
