If you are using only bio-ethanol fuel that is specifically designed for the fire and adhere to all safety rules, then your fireplace should be operating in a safe manner.
Installation is simple
Ethanol fires are a fast and easy option for homeowners who want to make their living spaces more attractive or create a focal point for their home decor. You don't require a chimney and they don’t emit dangerous smoke. Smoke won't linger on your ceilings or walls.
Installation is simple and doesn't require any specialist help. It is all you have to do is sure that your wall or ceiling is sturdy and adhere to the directions of the model you choose.
If you decide to install an ethanol fireplace mounted on the wall they are usually equipped with the fittings that allow them to be mounted like a flat-screen TV or recessed into the wall. You'll need to find the studs and install the brackets and extensions however, it shouldn't take more than an hour for a professional to do so.
You can also pick between manual and automated bio ethanol burning equipment. A burner that is automated will keep the fuel at a safe distance from the flames, meaning it will burn longer without running out or overheating. A manual burner operates in the same way as an old-fashioned fireplace, but you'll need matches or a lighter to light the flames.
When selecting a burner for your bio ethanol fireplace, it is important to remember that the burner must be covered by non-combustible material to ensure that nothing comes into contact with the burning fuel. If you don't cover the burner, the flame could become too hot and damage the fireplace.
The Ethanol fireplace is a wonderful option for those looking for an eye-catching feature to bring to their home, but don't have the time or money to install a gas or
wood fireplace. They're the perfect option for new homes or renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. They don't create soot or ash, so there's no need for maintenance.
Styles and designs
There are many different styles and designs that bio ethanol fireplaces are available in. Some have a more traditional fireplace design that burns wood, while others are designed to be sleek and
modern fireplace. Every type of fireplace offers the same advantages, regardless of design: a real flame ambience free of harmful gases or smoke.
Ethanol fires can be wall-mounted or freestanding. Freestanding models are more portable and can be moved around the room according to what is desired.
wall fires-mounted models are anchored to the walls and may require specialized mounting gear. They also must comply with certain clearance distances to avoid flammable materials.
The fire is made by a burner pan that is located in the middle of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into the pan and then the fire is ignited using an extended lighter. The process takes around 15 minutes to get the fire up to its full potential for flame. Once the flames are established, it's time to sit back, relax and enjoy the warm ambiance of your home.
Some ethanol fire places even have heating settings that can be altered. This lets you customize the amount of heat your fireplace produces, which can be beneficial if you wish to give you more warmth than just ambience.
A further benefit of ethanol fires is that there is no need for chimneys or flues. This makes them an excellent option for older homes or newer homes without chimney breasts or traditional fireplaces. Furthermore, a bio-ethanol fire place doesn't produce toxic gases or ash which could be harmful for people with respiratory problems.
Bioethanol fireplaces are simple to install in your home. While the exact time to install is dependent on the model you select, most are installed in a short time. You can choose a portable freestanding fireplace that can be taken with you when you decide to move. This is a great option for temporary living arrangements. The ease of installation is an important factor for many consumers and is something that should not be ignored when shopping for a new fireplace.
No flue
The big advantage that bio
ethanol fires have over traditional wood or gas fires is that they don't need an exhaust pipe to run. As a result, there is no risk of chimney fires that can be caused by a build-up of tar or an obstruction in the flue.
A bio-ethanol fireplace doesn't produce numerous particles that could affect the air. This is beneficial for people suffering from asthma or allergies. Another advantage is that there's no smoke generated by the fire and therefore it doesn't create a bad smell in the room.
In contrast to a fireplace that burns wood,
Bioethanol fire fires don't lose a lot of heat through the chimney, so it produces a huge amount of heat for its size. This means you can keep your furniture in close proximity to the flame without worrying about catching fire which could be dangerous for your valuables.
If you choose to install a freestanding bioethanol fireplace there are options to pick from. You can pick an installation on the wall for an elegant, modern appearance or a recessed one that will blend into the design of your room.
A manual or automatic burner is another thing to think about. A manual burner requires you to ignite the fuel directly from the reservoir while an automated one will automatically light your fire once the tank is empty.
When you've finished using your bioethanol fireplace it's important to let the flames completely go out and wait until the burner has cooled before refueling. If you don't, the ethanol may evaporate and you'll need to start again.
Most manufacturers suggest that you allow at least 45 minutes between refilling your fire, so you have enough time to extinguish the flames and ensure all flammable substances are removed from the fire. In addition, it's best to store any remaining ethanol fuel somewhere out of reach of pets and children to prevent any accidents from occurring.
Easy maintenance
Ethanol fireplaces function by pouring bio-ethanol fuel into the burner before lighting it. As the fuel burns, it creates a flame and heat that can be adjusted using the slider (not all designs include this feature). By adjusting the amount of oxygen fed to the fire, you can adjust the speed at which the fuel burns and also the intensity of the flame.
The soot that is produced from the combustion of fuel can be easily cleaned with a a soft clean cloth. The only other thing to do is to ensure that the burner is topped up with the right fuel and to ensure it's not in contact with items or materials that are flammable.
Bioethanol fireplaces are simple to install and you don't need to worry about chimneys or building codes. This gives you great flexibility in the design of your home and where you want to relax in the warmth of your fireplace. You can also choose a freestanding model that can be moved.
Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces can be incorporated into walls easily, and certain models can be rotated 180 degrees, allowing you to focus the heat and flame into the desired area of your home. You can also mount an electronic remote control on some designs to take full control from the comfort of your sofa.
Many of the wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are equipped with brackets that allow them to be affixed to a flat ceiling or an inclined one. Installing the fireplace wherever you like is possible, however, you'll still be able to use the remote control to turn it off and adjust the flame's height as well as set 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. Do not pour any fuel into the burner until it is at the temperature of room temperature. Be cautious when handling it since it is very hot.
