Bio Ethanol Fireplaces
Ethanol Fireplaces Wood can give an inviting atmosphere to any space without the need for costly construction or gas supply. They are also the most secure type of fire available.
If you use only bio-ethanol fuel that is specifically designed for the fire and you adhere to all safety rules, then your fireplace should perform safely.
Installation is simple
Ethanol fires are a quick and easy option for homeowners looking to transform their living space or create a focal point for their home decor. They do not require a flue, and they don't release dangerous smoke which means you don't need to be concerned about the accumulation of soot on your walls or ceilings.
Whether you opt for a full fire suite - for example, 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 does not require any assistance from a specialist. All you have to do is ensure that the wall or ceiling is strong enough and follow the instructions for the specific model.
If you opt for an ethanol fireplace mounted on the wall Most come with the hardware that allows them to be either hung as a flat-screen television or installed into the wall. It takes a professional about an hour to put in the brackets, extensions, and locate the studs.
You can also pick between manual and automated bio ethanol burning equipment. The automated burner keeps the fuel from the flames so it will burn for longer without the risk of overheating or running out. Manual burners work in the same way as a traditional fireplace, but you'll need matches or lighters 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 gets in contact with 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 fireplace is a wonderful option for those looking for an impressive feature to enhance their home, but don't have the time or budget to build wood or gas wooden fireplaces. These are ideal for new or renovated homes in which chimney breasts were removed. And, because they do not generate soot or ash, there are no issues with maintenance also.
Styles and designs
There are a variety of different styles and designs that bio ethanol fireplaces can be found in. Certain bio ethanol fireplaces sport the traditional wood fireplaces-burning appearance and others sport a sleek and modern design. Every type of fireplace has the same benefits, regardless of style and ambiance without toxic gasses or smoke.
Ethanol fires can be wall-mounted or freestanding. Freestanding models can be moved around the space to meet your requirements. Wall-mounted models are fixed to the walls and require specialized mounting gear. They must also meet certain clearance distances to avoid flammable materials.
The fire is made by a burner pan that is located in the middle of the fireplace. Fuel is poured into the pan and the fire is then lit with a long lighter. It takes around 15 minutes to get the fire up to its full potential for flame. Once the flames have been established, it's time to relax, sit back and enjoy the warm ambience of your home.
Certain fireplaces with ethanol have adjustable heating settings. This lets you alter the amount of heat your fireplace generates.
Another advantage of ethanol fireplaces is that they do not require a chimney or flue. This makes them a great option 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 that could pose a risk for those suffering from respiratory issues.
Installing bioethanol fireplaces in your home is also easy. The exact installation time will depend on the type of fireplace you choose. However, most models can be set up fairly quickly. You can also choose a freestanding portable fireplace that you can carry with you if you ever move, making it a good option to use as a temporary living arrangement. It is crucial to think about the ease of installation when you purchase the fireplace.
No Flu
The big advantage that bio ethanol fires have over traditional gas or wood fires is that they don't require a flue to operate. There is no risk of a chimney fire caused by tar buildup or blockage.
A bio-ethanol fireplace doesn't produce numerous particles that could affect the air. This is a great thing for people suffering from asthma or allergies. Another benefit is that there isn't any smoke that is produced by the fire and, therefore, it doesn't cause an unpleasant smell in the room.
As opposed to a wood-burning tabletop fireplace bioethanol fires don't lose a lot of heat to the chimney, which means it produces a huge amount of heat for its size. This allows you to keep your furniture near the fire without having to worry about it catching on fire, which could be dangerous.
If you choose to install a freestanding bio-ethanol fireplace there are different designs you can choose from. You can go for a sleek and modern look with a wall-mounted model or choose a recessed version that will blend into the style of your space.
Another thing to consider is whether you want a manual or an automatic burner. A manual burner requires you to light the fuel directly out of the reservoir. A burner that is automated will automatically light your fire once the tank is empty.
It is important that you allow the flames to fully burn out and wait until the flame cools before refilling. In the event that you don't the ethanol will evaporate and you'll have to start again.
The majority of manufacturers recommend waiting at least 45 minutes prior to refilling your fire. This will allow you time to safely remove the flames, and remove any flammable materials from the fire. In addition, it's recommended to store any spare fuel with ethanol out of reach of children and pets to prevent any accidents from occurring.
Ease of maintenance
The bio ethanol fuel is put into the burner and then lit. As the fuel burns, it generates the appearance of a flame and the heat can be controlled with a slider (not all designs include this feature). By adjusting the amount of oxygen that is fed to the fire you can alter the speed at which the fuel burns and also the intensity of the flame.
When the fuel is burned, it creates tiny amounts of soot, which is easily cleaned by wiping the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other maintenance required is to ensure that the burner is full of the correct fuel and ensuring that it's a safe distance away from any flammable objects or other equipment.
Another benefit of bio ethanol fires is that you can put them almost anywhere, without needing to worry about chimney regulations or building regulations. This gives you a lot of flexibility in designing your home, and the location you wish to sit and enjoy the warmth of your fireplace. You can even choose a freestanding model that can be moved.
Wall-mounted bio ethanol fireplaces are able to be fitted into your wall easily, and certain models can be rotated 180 degrees so you can direct the flame and heat to the desired location of your room. You can even mount an electronic remote control on some designs to take full control from the comfortable sofa.
A majority of wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are equipped with brackets to allow them to be attached to an unfinished ceiling or a sloped one. Installing the fireplace anywhere you'd like is possible but you can still utilize the remote control to turn off the fireplace and adjust the flame's height as well as adjust the temperature.
When you're not using your ethanol fireplace, be sure to turn it off and keep it away from any flammable objects or materials. Don't pour any more fuel into the burner until the burner is at the temperature of room temperature. Be careful when handling it because it is extremely hot.
