Bio Ethanol Fireplaces
Ethanol fireplaces are great for bringing a cozy feel to any room without the need for costly structural work or gas supply. They are the safest fire type available.
If you use only bio-ethanol fuel specifically formulated for your fire, and adhere to all safety guidelines the fireplace will operate safely.
Installation is easy
Ethanol fireplaces are a straightforward and quick solution for homeowners who want to make their living space more attractive or add a focal point to their home decor. You don't need a chimney and they don’t produce dangerous smoke. Smoke won't linger on your walls or ceilings.
Whether you opt for an entire fire suite - such as Mano Mano's Adam Solus [Fireplace Suite](https://www.fireplacesandstoves.uk/) 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 doesn't require any expert assistance. You only need to make sure that your wall or ceiling is sturdy and follow the directions for the model you choose.
If you decide to install a wall-mounted ethanol fireplace, most are supplied with the fittings that allow them to be either hung like a flat-screen TV, or installed into the wall. You'll need to locate the studs, and then install the brackets and extensions, but it shouldn't take more than an hour for a professional to do so.
You can also choose between manual and automated bio ethanol burning devices. An automatic burner will keep the fuel away from the flames, meaning it can burn for longer without risk of running out or overheating. Manual burners work in the same way as an old-fashioned fireplace, but you'll need to use matches or lighters to ignite the flames.
It's important to remember when selecting a bioethanol burner, the burner must be covered with non-combustible materials. This will ensure that nothing gets in contact with the burning fuel. If you do not cover the burner, the fire could get too hot and cause damage to the fireplace.
Ethanol fireplaces are a great alternative for those who want to create a dramatic feature in their home, but don't have the funds or time to build a wood or gas fireplace. They're an excellent choice for new homes and renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. They don't produce ash or soot, so there's no need for maintenance.
Designs and styles
Bio-ethanol fireplaces are available in different styles and designs. Some bio ethanol fireplaces have the traditional wood-burning appearance, while others feature a sleek and modern design. Every type of fireplace comes with the same advantages regardless of design and ambiance without toxic fumes or smoke.
Ethanol fires can be mounted on the wall or freestanding. Freestanding models are more portable and can be moved around the room in any direction you like. Wall-mounted models are fixed to the walls and may require special mounting equipment. They also have to meet certain clearance distances to avoid flammable materials.
The fire itself originates from a burner pan located on the bottom of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into the pan, and the fire is ignited using a long lighter. It takes about 15 minutes for the flames to reach their maximum potential. Once the flames have been established then it's time to relax, sit back and enjoy the warm atmosphere of your home.
Some ethanol fireplaces even have adjustable heating settings. This lets you customize the amount of heat that your fireplace produces, which can be useful if you want it to provide more warmth than just ambiance.
Another 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. In addition, a bio-ethanol fireplace doesn't produce toxic gases or ash which could be harmful for those with respiratory issues.
Installing bioethanol fireplaces into your home is also easy. The exact installation time will depend on the model that you choose. However, the majority of models can be installed fairly quickly. You can choose an outdoor freestanding fireplace that can be taken with you when you move. This is a great option for living arrangements that are temporary. It is important to consider the ease of installation when purchasing a fireplace.
No flu
The major advantage bio ethanol fires have over traditional gas or wood fires is that they don't require a flue to operate. There is no danger of a chimney fire caused by tar accumulation or a blockage.
A bio-ethanol fireplace also doesn't produce a lot of particles that can harm the air, which is a great thing for those suffering from asthma or allergies. The fire doesn't produce smoke, so it does not create a unpleasant odor in the room.
Unlike a wood-burning fireplace, bio ethanol fires don't lose much heat through the chimney, and therefore can generate a tremendous amount of heat for its size. This means that you can keep your furniture in close proximity to the flame without having to worry about catching a flame that could be hazardous for your valuables.
If you choose to install a freestanding bioethanol fireplace there are different designs to choose from. You can select one that is wall-mounted for an elegant, modern appearance or a recessed unit which will blend in with the design of your space.
A burner that is either manual or automated is another thing to think about. A manual burner requires you to ignite the fuel from the reservoir. A burner that is automated will light your fire automatically when the tank is empty.
After you've used your bioethanol fireplace it is important to let the flames burn out completely and to wait until the fireplace is cool before refilling. If you don't, the ethanol might evaporate and you'll have to start over.
Most manufacturers suggest that you allow at least 45 minutes between refilling your fire, so that you have enough time to remove the flames, and make sure that all materials that are flammable are kept away from the flame. To prevent accidents, keep any remaining fuel ethanol away from pets and children.
Easy maintenance
Ethanol fireplaces work by pouring bio ethanol fuel into the burner and lighting it. As the fuel burns, it generates a flame and heat that can be adjusted using the slider (not all designs have this feature). By altering how much oxygen is pumped into the fire, you can alter the speed at which the fuel burns and also how high the flame burns.
As the fuel burns, it produces tiny amounts of soot. However, this can be easily cleaned by wiping down the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other maintenance required is keeping the burner filled with the correct fuel and making sure it is not too far from any flammable items or equipment.
Bioethanol fireplaces are simple to install, and you don't have to be concerned about chimneys or building codes. This allows you to be very flexible in the design of your home and the location you wish to enjoy the warmth of your fireplace. You can even opt to have a free-standing model that can be moved from room to room.
Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces can be simple to install, and certain models let you rotate the unit by 180 degrees, allowing you to direct the heat and flame into the desired part of the room. Some models include a remote control that allows you to control the fireplace from the comfort of your couch.
Many of the bioethanol fireplaces that are mounted on walls are fitted with brackets to allow them to be affixed to a flat ceiling or sloping one. This allows you to install the fireplace wherever you want it while being capable of turning it off or on and alter the flame's height, and adjust the temperature with the remote control.
When you're not using your ethanol fireplace, make sure to shut it off and keep it clear from any flammable objects or materials. Do not pour any fuel into the burner until it is at room temperature. Be cautious when handling it as it is extremely hot.
