Bio Ethanol Fireplaces

Ethanol fireplaces are great for bringing a cozy feel to any room without the need for costly construction or gas supply. They are also the most secure type of fire available.

As long as you utilize bio-ethanol fuels that have been specifically designed for your fireplace and adhere to the safety guidelines, your fireplace should be very safe to operate.

Installation is simple

Ethanol fireplaces are a simple and quick solution for homeowners who want to revamp their living space or to add a focal point to their home decor. They do not require a flue, and they don't produce dangerous smoke, so you don't have to be concerned about the accumulation of soot on your ceilings or walls.

If you decide to go with a full fire suite - such as Mano Mano's Adam Solus Fireplace Suite in Oak with Colorado Bio Ethanol Fire in Black, available at PS569 or a freestanding model that can be moved from room to room (such as the Planika Petit, PS191), installation is simple and does not require any assistance from a specialist. All you need to do is make sure that your ceiling or wall is strong and follow the instructions of the model you select.

Most ethanol fireplaces that are wall-mounted have the equipment needed to mount them like flat screen TVs or recess into the wall. It will take a professional about an hour to put in the brackets, extensions, and find the studs.

You can also choose between manual and automatic bioethanol burning devices. The automatic burner keeps the fuel away from the flames so that it will burn for longer without the risk of overheating or running out of. Manual burners work in the same way as a traditional fireplace, however you'll need matches or lighters to ignite the flames.

When selecting a burner for your bio ethanol fireplace, it's worth remembering that the burner should be covered by non-combustible materials to ensure that nothing comes into contact with the burning fuel. If you do not cover the burner, the flame could get too hot and cause damage to the fireplace.

Ethanol fires are an excellent alternative for those looking to create a striking feature in their home, but don't have the funds or time to build a wood or gas fireplace. They're the perfect choice for new homes as well as renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. They don't produce ash or soot, so there's no maintenance issues.

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 comes with the same advantages regardless of style that is a genuine flame atmosphere without toxic gasses or smoke.

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

The fire is made by a burner pan that is located at the bottom of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into this pan and the fire is lit with a long lighter. The process takes around 15 minutes to get the fire up to its maximum flame potential. Once the fire is lit, you can relax and enjoy the warm ambience of your home.

Certain ethanol fire places offer heating settings that can be altered. This allows you to customize the amount of heat your fireplace produces, which can be useful if you want to create more warmth rather than just ambience.

A further benefit of ethanol fires is that it is no need for a chimney or flue. This makes them an excellent alternative for new homes or older homes without traditional chimney breasts or fireplaces. Furthermore, a bio-ethanol fire place does not generate gas or ash, which can be dangerous for those suffering from respiratory issues.

Installing bio ethanol fireplaces in your home is also easy. The time required to install will depend on the model you choose. However, the majority of models can be installed quickly. You can choose an outdoor freestanding fireplace that can be taken with you when you relocate. This is a great option for living arrangements that are temporary. It is important to consider the ease of installation when you purchase an electric fireplace.

No Flu

The main benefit of bioethanol over traditional natural gas or wood fires is the fact that they don't require a chimney to function. As a result, there is no risk of chimney fires that can result from the build-up of tar, or an obstruction in the flue.

A bio-ethanol fireplace also doesn't create a lot of particles that could harm the air, which is good news for those who suffer from allergies or asthma. The fireplace doesn't release smoke, which means it won't cause bad odor in the room.

Bio ethanol fireplaces produce lots of heat, compared to wood burning fires. This allows you to keep your furniture close to the fire without worrying about it catching on fire which could be hazardous.

There are a variety of designs available for a bioethanol freestanding fireplace. You can pick an installation on the wall for a sleek, modern look or a recessed unit that blends into the style of your home.

A manual or automatic burner is another aspect to consider. A manual burner requires you to light the fuel directly from the reservoir. A burner that is automated will light your fire automatically when the tank is empty.

When you've finished using your bio ethanol fireplace, it is essential to let the flames completely go out and wait until the fireplace has cooled before refueling. If you don't do this, the ethanol could evaporate and you will have to start over.

Most manufacturers suggest waiting at least 45 minutes prior to refilling your fire. This will allow you enough time to extinguish the flames, and remove any flammable materials from the fire. In addition, it's best to store any remaining ethanol fuel somewhere out of reach of pets and children, to avoid any accidents from happening.

Maintenance ease

Ethanol fireplaces work by pouring bio ethanol fuel into the burner before lighting it. The heat and flame produced by the burning fuel can be controlled with an adjustable slider. (Not all designs have this feature). By altering the amount of oxygen supplied to the fire, you can adjust the speed at which fuel burns and how high the flame burns.

When the fuel is burned, it creates some soot, but this can be easily cleaned by wiping the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other maintenance is to keep the burner topped up with the right fuel and to ensure it is kept away from any flammable materials or objects.

Another benefit of bioethanol fires is that you can set them almost anywhere, without needing to worry about building regulations or chimneys. This provides you with a large amount of flexibility when it comes to designing your home and where you can enjoy the warmth and charm of your new fireplace. You can even opt to have a free-standing model that can be moved from room to room.

Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces can be simple to install, and certain models allow you to rotate the unit by 180 degrees, allowing you to direct the heat and flame into the desired part of the room. Some models come with a remote control that allows you to control the fireplace from the comfort of your couch.

To maximize versatility, a lot of the 'plug and play' wall-mounted bio ethanol fireplaces come with brackets that allow you to attach them to an unfinished or sloped ceiling. This allows you to install the fireplace wherever you want it, and be in a position to turn the flame off or on, adjust the flame height, and set the temperature with the remote control.

When you're not using your ethanol fireplace, make sure to turn it off and keep it clear from any flammable objects or materials. Don't try to add fuel to the burner until it has cooled to room temperature and always be cautious when handling the burner since it is extremely hot.
