Bio Ethanol Fireplaces

Ethanol fireplaces can give an inviting atmosphere to any room without the need for expensive construction or gas supply. They are the most secure kind of fire available.

As long as you only use bio-ethanol fuel that has been specifically designed for your fire and follow the safety guidelines, your fireplace should be safe to operate.

Ease of installation

Ethanol fireplaces are a simple and quick option for homeowners looking to transform their living area or add a focal point to their home decor. You don't need chimneys and they won't create dangerous smoke. Soot won't accumulate on your walls or ceilings.

If you decide to go with the complete fire suite - for example, Mano Mano's Adam Solus Fireplace Suite in Oak with Colorado Bio Ethanol Fire in Black, from PS569 - or an independent model that can be moved from room to room (such as the Planika Petit, PS191) Installation is easy and requires no specialist help. All you need to do is ensure that the ceiling or wall is sturdy enough and follow the guidelines for the specific model.

Most fireplaces made of ethanol that are wall-mounted include the necessary hardware to mount them like flat screen TVs or recess into the wall. It takes 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 automatic burner keeps the fuel away from the flames, so that it will burn for longer without the risk of overheating or consuming. Manual burners function the same as fireplaces, but you'll need matches or lighters to ignite 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 don't cover your burner properly, it could cause the fire to overheat. This could cause damage to the fireplace.

Ethanol fires are an excellent alternative for those looking to create a dramatic feature in their home but don't have the money or time to build a wood or gas fireplace. They're a perfect choice for new homes and renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. They don't generate ash or soot, so there are no maintenance concerns.

Styles and designs

There are a number of different styles and designs that bio-ethanol fireplaces can be found in. Certain bio ethanol fireplaces sport a traditional wood-burning look and others sport modern and sleek designs. No matter what style they all offer the same benefits: genuine flame ambience with no smoke or toxic gases.

Ethanol fireplaces can be freestanding or wall mounted. Freestanding models can be moved around the room to meet your needs. Wall-mounted models, on the other hand, are fixed to the wall and require special mounting equipment. They must also comply with certain distances between the flammable material and the unit.

The fire itself is created by a burner pan that is situated on the bottom of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into this pan and the fire is then lit with a long lighter. It takes about 15 minutes for the flames to reach their maximum potential. Once the flames have been established and the fire is ablaze, you can relax, sit back and enjoy the warm ambiance of your home.

Some ethanol fire places even provide heating settings that can be altered. This lets you customize the amount of heat your fire produces, which is useful if you want it to create more warmth rather than just ambience.

Another benefit of ethanol fires is that there is no need for an chimney or flue. This makes them a great option for older homes or newer ones that don't have chimney fireplaces or traditional fireplaces. In addition, a bio-ethanol fireplace does not generate ash or harmful gases which could be harmful for those suffering from respiratory issues.

Installing bio ethanol fireplaces in your home is also simple. The time required to install will depend on the type of fireplace you select. However, most models can be installed fairly quickly. You can even choose a portable fireplace that you can carry with you in the event of a relocate, making it a great option to use as a temporary living arrangement. The ease of installation is an important factor for many consumers, and it is something that should not be overlooked when shopping for a new fireplace.

No flu

The biggest advantage of bioethanol over traditional natural gas or wood fires is the fact that they do not require a chimney to function. There is no chance of a chimney fire that is caused by tar accumulation or a blockage.

Bio-ethanol fireplaces don't create many particulates, which can affect the air. This is a great thing for people with asthma or allergies. Another benefit is that there is no smoke produced by the fireplace and, therefore, it doesn't cause a bad smell in the room.

Unlike a wood-burning fireplace, bioethanol fires don't lose a lot of heat through the chimney, so it can generate a tremendous amount of heat for its size. This means that you can keep your furniture near the flame without having to worry about catching a flame which could be dangerous for any valuables.

If you opt for a freestanding bio-ethanol fireplace There are different designs to choose from. You can choose modern and sleek design with a wall-mounted unit or opt for an recessed model that will fit in with the style of your room.

Another thing to think about is whether you want either a manual or automatic burner. 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 completely burn out and wait until the burner cools down before refilling. If you don't, the ethanol may evaporate and you will have to start again.

The majority of manufacturers suggest waiting at least 45 minutes prior to refilling your fire. This gives you enough time to safely extinguish the flames, and to remove any flammable materials from the fire. To prevent accidents, keep any spare ethanol fuel out of reach of pets and children.

Maintenance is easy

The bio ethanol fuel is added to the burner and then ignited. As the fuel burns, it produces a flame and heat that can be controlled with a slider (not all designs include this feature). By altering how much oxygen is supplied to the fire you can alter the speed at which the fuel is burned and how high the flame burns.

The soot created by the burning of fuel can be easily cleaned with a the help of a soft clean cloth. The only other requirement is to keep the burner full of the correct fuel and ensure that it is kept away from any items or materials that are flammable.

Another advantage of bio ethanol fires is that you can put them almost anywhere, without having to worry about chimney regulations or building regulations. This allows you to be very flexible when designing your home and where you want to enjoy the warmth of your fireplace. You could even choose to have a freestanding model that can be moved from room to room.

Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are easy to install and some models allow you to rotate the unit by 180 degrees, allowing you the flame and heat to be directed to the desired area of the room. You can even put remote controls on some of the designs to take full control from the comfort of your sofa.

A majority of bioethanol fireplaces that are mounted on walls are fitted with brackets to allow them to be attached to an unfinished ceiling or a sloped one. This lets you place the fireplace wherever you want it while being capable of turning it on or off, adjust stoves copyright the flame height, and adjust the temperature using the remote control.

When you're not using your fireplace with ethanol, be sure to turn it off and keep it clear from any flammable items or materials. Do not pour any fuel into the burner until the burner is at room temperature. Be cautious when handling it as it is extremely hot.
