Bio Ethanol Fireplaces
Ethanol fireplaces are excellent for bringing a cozy feel to any space without the need for expensive structure work or gas supply. They are also the most secure type of fire available.
If you use only bio-ethanol fuel specifically designed for your fire, and adhere to all safety guidelines then your fireplace will be operating in a safe manner.
Installation is easy
Ethanol fires are a simple and simple solution for homeowners looking to make their living spaces more attractive or create a focal point for their home decor. There is no need for a chimney and they don’t emit dangerous smoke. Soot won't accumulate on your walls or ceilings.

If you opt for a wall-mounted ethanol fireplace Most come with the fittings that allow them to be either hung like a flat-screen TV or recessed into the wall. You'll need to find the studs and fit the brackets and extensions however, it will not take more than one hour for a professional to do so.
There is also the option of manual or automatic bioethanol burners. The automatic burner keeps the fuel from the flames so that it can burn for longer without the danger of overheating or running out. A manual burner works similarly to a traditional fireplace, however you'll need to use matches or lighters to light the flames.
When selecting a burner for your bio ethanol fireplace, it's important to keep in mind that the burner should be covered by non-combustible materials to ensure that nothing comes into contact with the burning fuel. If you don't cover the burner, the flame could overheat and damage the fireplace.
Ethanol fires are a great alternative for those looking to create a striking feature in their home, but don't have the budget or time to install gas or wood fireplaces. These are ideal for renovations and new homes where chimney breasts have been removed. Since they do not produce soot or ash, there's no issues with maintenance or worry about.
Styles and designs
Bio ethanol fireplaces are available in a variety of styles and designs. Some bio ethanol fireplaces have a traditional wood-burning look and others have modern and sleek designs. Whatever the design the
wooden fireplaces all have the same benefits: authentic flame ambience with no fumes or harmful gases.
Ethanol fires can be mounted on the wall or freestanding. Freestanding models can be moved around a space to meet your requirements. Wall-mounted models are anchored to the walls and may require special mounting gear. They also must comply with certain clearance distances from flammable substances.
The fire is started by a burner pan located at the bottom of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into this pan and the fire is lit with a long-lasting lighter. The process takes about 15 minutes for the fire to reach its full flame potential. Once the fire is ignited, you can relax and enjoy the warm and cozy atmosphere of your home.
Some
ethanol fire places even offer temperature settings that can be adjusted. This lets you alter the amount of heat your fireplace produces, which can be useful if you want it to create more warmth rather than just ambiance.
Another benefit of ethanol fires is that there is no need for a chimney or flue. This makes them an excellent alternative for older homes or newer ones that don't have chimney breasts or traditional fireplaces. Bio-
ethanol fires do not emit harmful gasses or ash, which are dangerous to people who suffer from respiratory issues.
Bioethanol fireplaces are easy to install inside your home. The exact time to install them will depend on the model you select. However, the majority of models can be set up fairly quickly. You can even choose a portable fireplace that you can take with you if you ever move, making it a good option for a temporary home. It is important to consider the ease of installation when you purchase a
fireplace.
No Flu
The biggest advantage of bioethanol over traditional wood or natural gas fires is that they do not require a chimney for operation. There is no chance of a chimney fire caused by tar accumulation or a blockage.
Bio-ethanol fireplaces don't release numerous particles that could cause harm to the air. This is great for people suffering from allergies or asthma. The fire doesn't produce smoke, which means it won't cause unpleasant odor in the room.
As opposed to a wood-burning fireplace bio ethanol fires don't lose heat to the chimney, so it produces a huge amount of heat for its size. This means you can keep your furniture near the fire without worrying about catching alight, which could be dangerous for any valuables.
There are several designs available for a bio ethanol freestanding fireplace. You can choose one that is wall-mounted for a sleek, modern look or a recessed model which will blend in with the design of your space.
A burner that is either manual or automated is another aspect to consider. A manual burner requires you to light the fuel directly from the reservoir while an automatic burner will automatically light your fire when 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 vaporize and you'll have to start again.
Most manufacturers suggest that you allow at least 45 minutes between refilling your fire, to ensure that you have enough time to put out the flames and ensure that all flammable materials are away from the flame. To avoid any accidents, store any spare ethanol fuel out of reach of children and pets.
Easy maintenance
Ethanol fireplaces function by pouring bio-ethanol fuel into the fireplace and lighting it. As the fuel burns, it creates an ember and heat that can be controlled by a slider (not all designs feature this). By altering how much oxygen is fed to the fire you can alter the speed at which the fuel is burned and the intensity of the flame.
The soot created by the fuel burning is easily removed using a a soft clean cloth. The only other maintenance is to ensure that the burner is topped up with the right fuel and ensure that it's kept away from items or materials that are flammable.
Another benefit of bio ethanol fires is that you can install 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 where you can experience the warmth and ambiance of your new fireplace. You can even opt for a freestanding model that can be moved.
Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces can be incorporated into walls easily, and certain models can be turned 180 degrees, allowing you to move the flame and heat to the desired space of your home. Some models include a remote controls that allow you to control the fireplace from the comfort of your couch.
For maximum versatility, many of the 'plug and play' wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces have brackets that allow you to attach them to a flat or sloping ceiling. The fireplace can be installed wherever you'd like is possible however, you can still utilize the remote control to shut it off, adjust flame height and adjust the temperature.
If you're not using your fireplace with ethanol, be sure to turn it off and keep it clear from any flammable items or materials. Also, don't attempt to add fuel to the burner until it has cooled to room temperature. Always be cautious when handling the fire as it will be very hot.
