Bio Ethanol Fireplaces
Ethanol fireplaces are ideal for bringing a cozy feel to any room without the expense of structural work or gas supply. They are also the safest kind of fire that is available.
As long as you only use bio-ethanol fuel that has been specifically formulated for your fire and you follow the safety instructions the fireplace will be extremely safe to use.
Installation is easy
Ethanol fires are a simple and easy solution for homeowners who wish to make their living spaces more attractive or create a focal point for their home decor. You don't need a chimney and they don’t create dangerous smoke. Soot won't accumulate on your ceilings or walls.
Whether you opt for the complete 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 fireplace model that can be moved from room to room (such as the Planika Petit, PS191) Installation is simple and requires no specialist help. All you need to do is make sure that your wall or ceiling 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 necessary hardware to allow them to be hung like a flat-screen TV or placed in the wall. It will take an experienced professional approximately one hour to put in the brackets, extensions and find the studs.
You can also choose between automatic and manual bio ethanol burning equipment. The automated burner keeps the fuel away from the flames, so that it will burn for longer without the danger of overheating or consuming. Manual burners work similarly to a traditional fireplace, but you'll need matches or lighters to light the flames.
It is important to keep in mind that when choosing a bio ethanol burner, it must be covered with non-combustible material. This will ensure that nothing gets in contact with the burning fuel. If you don't cover your burner properly, it could cause the fire to overheat. This could cause damage to the
fireplace suites.
Ethanol
wooden Fireplaces are a great alternative for those who want to create a dramatic focal point in their home but don't have the money or time to build gas or wood fireplaces. They are perfect for new or renovated homes where chimney breasts have been removed. They don't produce soot or ash, so there are no maintenance concerns.
Designs and styles
There are a variety of different styles and designs that bio-ethanol fireplaces are available in. Some bio ethanol fireplaces have the traditional wood-burning appearance, while others feature a sleek and modern design. Each model offers the same advantages, regardless of design and ambiance free of harmful fumes or smoke.
Ethanol fireplaces can be wall mounted. Freestanding models can be moved around the space to meet your requirements. Wall-mounted models are anchored to the walls and require specialized mounting gear. They also have to meet certain clearance distances from flammable substances.
The fire is created by a burner pan that is located in the middle of the fireplace. Fuel is poured into this pan, and the fire is ignited using an extended lighter. The process takes around 15 minutes to get the fire up to its full flame potential. Once the fire is lit you can relax and enjoy the warm ambience of your home.
Some ethanol fireplaces even come with adjustable heat settings. This allows you to adjust the amount of heat the fireplace produces.
Another benefit of ethanol fireplaces is that they do not require any chimneys or flues. This makes them a great option for older homes or newer homes without chimney breasts or traditional fireplaces. Furthermore, a bio-ethanol fire place does not produce any ash or harmful gases which could be harmful for those with respiratory issues.
Installing bioethanol fireplaces in your home is also simple. The exact time to install them will depend on the model you select. However, most models can be set up fairly quickly. You can also opt for an open-air fireplace that you can take with you in the event of a relocate, making it a great choice for a temporary living arrangement. The ease of installation is a crucial factor for many consumers and is something that should not be ignored when choosing the perfect fireplace.
No Flu
The big advantage that bio ethanol fires have over traditional gas or wood fires is that they don't need a flue to operate. In the end, there's no chance of chimney fires that could be caused by the accumulation of tar or obstructions in the flue.
Bio-ethanol fireplaces don't release many particles, which could affect the air. This is a great thing for people with allergies or asthma. The fireplace doesn't release smoke, therefore it does not create a unpleasant odor in the room.
Bioethanol fireplaces produce a large amount of heat, compared to wood burning fires. This lets you keep your furniture near the flame without having to worry about it burning which could be hazardous.
If you choose to install a freestanding bio ethanol fireplace, there are a few options to pick from. You can opt for an elegant and contemporary look with a wall-mounted model or opt for an recessed model that will blend in with the design of your space.
Another thing to think about is whether you want either a manual or automatic burner. A manual burner requires you to ignite the fuel directly from the reservoir, while an automatic one will automatically light your fire when the tank is empty.
When you're done using your bioethanol fireplace it's important to let the flames completely go out and to wait until the fireplace is cool before refilling. In the event that you don't, the ethanol will evaporate and you'll need to start over.
Most manufacturers recommend that you allow at least 45 minutes between refilling your fire so that you have plenty of time to properly extinguish the flames and ensure that all flammable substances are removed from the fire. To avoid accidents, store any spare ethanol fuel out of reach of pets and children.
Maintenance ease
The bio ethanol fuel is put into the burner and then ignited. As the fuel burns, it produces the appearance of a flame and the heat can be adjusted using the slider (not all designs feature this). By altering the amount of oxygen is fed to the fire you can alter how fast the fuel burns, and the intensity of the flame.
As the fuel burns, it produces some soot, which can be easily cleaned by wiping down the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other maintenance is to keep the burner filled with the correct fuel and ensure that it's not in contact with dangerous materials or objects.
Another benefit of bioethanol fires is that you can put them almost anywhere without having to worry about building regulations or chimneys. This allows you to enjoy a vast amount of flexibility when it comes to designing your home, and also where you can experience the warmth and ambiance of your new fireplace. You can also choose a freestanding model that is portable.
Wall-mounted bioethanol
marble fireplaces are simple to install, and certain models let you rotate the unit 180 degrees, allowing you direct the heat and flame towards the desired location of the room. Some models include a remote controls that allow you to control the fireplace from your couch.
A majority of bioethanol fireplaces that are mounted on walls are fitted with brackets that allow them to be attached to a flat ceiling or sloped one. The fireplace can be installed wherever you want is possible, but you can still use the remote control to turn it off, adjust flame height and set the temperature.
When you're not using the ethanol fireplace, be sure to shut it off and keep it clear from any flammable objects or materials. Do not add any fuel into the burner until the burner has reached room temperature. Be careful when handling it because it's extremely hot.
