Bio Ethanol wooden fireplaces

Ethanol fireplaces can bring warmth to any room without the need for costly construction or gas supply. They are the safest kind of fire available.

Installation is easy

Ethanol fireplaces are a simple and quick solution for homeowners looking to make their living space more attractive or add a focal point to their home decor. You don't require a chimney and they don’t produce dangerous smoke. Smoke won't linger on your ceilings or walls.

It doesn't matter if you choose an entire 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 is able to be moved from room to room (such as the Planika Petit, PS191) Installation is simple and does not require any assistance from a specialist. It is all you have to do is sure that your ceiling or wall is strong and follow the directions for the model you choose.

If you decide to install an ethanol fireplace mounted on the wall they are usually equipped with the hardware that allows them to be hung as a flat-screen television or recessed into the wall. You'll need to find the studs and install the brackets and extensions however, it should not take more than an hour for a professional to do so.

You can also choose between manual and automatic bioethanol burning devices. An automatic burner will keep the fuel at a safe distance from the flames, which means it can burn for longer without running out or overheating. A manual burner works similarly to an old-fashioned fireplace, but you'll need to use matches or a lighter to light the flames.

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

The ethanol fire is a great option for those looking for a dramatic feature to add to their home but don't have the money or time to install wood or gas fireplaces. These are ideal for renovations and new homes where chimney breasts have been removed. They don't generate soot or ash, which means there are no maintenance concerns.

Styles and designs

There are a variety of different styles and designs that bio-ethanol fireplaces can be found in. Some have a more traditional wood-burning look, whereas others are designed to look modern and sleek. No matter what style, each type offers the same benefits: genuine flames with no gas or smoke.

Ethanol fires can be mounted to the wall or freestanding. Freestanding models are more movable and can be moved around the room as desired. Wall-mounted models are fixed to the walls and require special mounting gear. They also must comply with certain clearance distances from flammable materials.

The fire itself is created by a burner pan that is situated at the bottom of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into the pan and the fire is then lit with a long lighter. It takes around 15 minutes for the flames to reach their maximum potential. Once the fire is lit you can relax and enjoy the warm and cozy atmosphere of your home.

Certain ethanol fireplaces have adjustable temperature settings. This lets you alter the amount of heat that your fireplace produces.

A further benefit of ethanol fires is that it is no need for an chimney or flue. This makes them an excellent option for older homes or newer homes without chimney fireplaces or traditional fireplaces. Bio-ethanol fires do not release harmful gasses or ash, which can be harmful to those suffering from respiratory ailments.

No flu

The major advantage that bio ethanol fires have over traditional wood or gas fires is that they don't need an exhaust pipe to run. This means that there's no chance of chimney fires that can be caused by the build-up of tar, or obstructions in the flue.

A bio-ethanol fireplace doesn't produce many particulates, which can affect the air. This is great for people with allergies or asthma. The fireplace doesn't release smoke, so it does not create a unpleasant odor in the room.

Bioethanol fireplaces produce an enormous amount of heat, compared to wood burning fires. This lets you keep your furniture near the fire without worrying about it catching on fire and causing danger.

A manual or automatic burner is a different thing to think about. 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.

When you're done using your bio-ethanol fireplace, it's important to let the flames completely burn out and to wait until the burner has cooled before refueling. If you don't do this, the ethanol may evaporate and you will have to start from scratch.

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 all materials that are flammable are kept away from the flame. To prevent accidents, keep any ethanol fuel that you have left away from the reach of children and pets.

Easy maintenance

Ethanol fireplaces function by pouring bio ethanol fuel into the fireplace and lighting it. The heat and flame produced by the burning fuel can be controlled using a slider. (Not all designs come with this feature). By altering the amount of oxygen that is fed to the fire, you can change the speed at which fuel is burned and the intensity of the flame.

As the fuel burns it produces some soot. However, this is easily cleaned by wiping 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 is kept away from any fire-prone objects or supplies.

Another benefit of bio ethanol fires is that you can put them virtually anywhere without needing to worry about chimney regulations or building regulations. This gives you a lot of flexibility in the design of your home and where you want to sit and enjoy the warmth of your fireplace. You can even opt for a freestanding fireplace that is portable.

Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are simple to install, and certain models let you rotate the unit 180 degrees, allowing you to direct the heat and flame towards the desired location of the room. You can even put an electronic remote control on certain models to control the entire thing from the comfortable sofa.

For maximum flexibility, a majority of the plug and play' wall-mounted bioethanol marble 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 like is possible, however, you'll still be able to make use of the remote control to turn it off and adjust the flame's height as well as set the temperature.

When you are not using your ethanol fire, make sure that it is turned off and is away from any flammable materials or other equipment. Do not pour any fuel into the burner until the burner is at the temperature of room temperature. Be cautious when handling it since it's extremely hot.
