Bio Ethanol Fireplaces
Ethanol fireplaces can bring warmth to any room, without the need for expensive construction work or gas supply. They are the safest fireplace type that is available.
If you use only bio-ethanol fuel that is specifically designed for the fire, and adhere to all safety guidelines the fireplace will operate in a safe manner.
Installation is simple
Ethanol fires are a quick and easy solution for homeowners who want to transform their living space or add a focal point to their home decor. You don't require chimneys and they don't emit dangerous smoke. Soot won't accumulate on your ceilings or walls.
It doesn't matter if you choose the complete fire suite - such as Mano Mano's Adam Solus [Fireplace Suite](https://www.fireplacesandstove.com/) in Oak with Colorado Bio Ethanol Fire in Black, from PS569 - or a freestanding model that is able to be moved from room to room (such as the Planika Petit, PS191), installation is simple and does not require any assistance from a specialist. All you have to do is ensure that the ceiling or wall is sturdy enough and follow the instructions for your specific model.
If you choose a wall-mounted ethanol fireplace Most come with the fittings that allow them to be either hung like a flat-screen TV or placed in the wall. It will take an experienced professional around an hour to mount the brackets, extensions, and locate the studs.
You also have a choice of automatic or manual bio ethanol burners. A burner that is automated will keep the fuel at a safe distance from the flames, meaning it can burn for longer without risk of running out or overheating. A manual burner works exactly the same way as a traditional fireplace, however you'll need 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 material. This will ensure that nothing gets in contact with the burning fuel. If you don't cover the burner, the flame could get too hot and cause damage to the fireplace.
Ethanol fireplaces are a great alternative for those looking to create a dramatic feature in their home, but don't have the budget or time to set up gas or wood fireplaces. They're an excellent choice for new homes and renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. Since they do not produce soot or ash, there are no maintenance issues to worry about, either.
Designs and styles
Bio-ethanol fireplaces are available in different styles and designs. Some bio ethanol fireplaces feature a traditional wood-burning look and others sport modern and sleek designs. No matter what style they all offer the same benefits: real flame ambience without fumes or harmful gases.
Ethanol fireplaces can be freestanding or wall mounted. Freestanding models can be moved around the room to suit your needs. Wall-mounted models, on other hand, are fixed to the wall and require special mounting equipment. They also have to meet certain distances between the flammable material and the unit.
The fire itself comes from the burner pan, which is located on the bottom of the fireplace. Fuel is poured into the pan and the fire is lit with a long lighter. The process takes about 15 minutes for the fire to reach its maximum flame potential. Once the flames are set, it's time to relax, sit back and enjoy the warm ambiance of your home.
Certain ethanol fireplaces come with adjustable temperature settings. This lets you alter the amount of heat your fire produces, which is beneficial if you wish to give you more warmth than just ambiance.
Another advantage of ethanol fireplaces is that they don't require any chimney or flue. This makes them a great alternative for new homes or older homes that do not have traditional chimney breasts or fireplaces. Additionally, a bio-ethanol fireplace does not produce any ash or harmful gases which could be harmful for those with respiratory issues.
Bio ethanol fireplaces are also easy to install in your home. The time required to install will depend on the model you choose. However, most models can be installed quickly. You can also opt for a freestanding portable fireplace that you can carry with you when you decide to relocate, which makes it a great option to use as a temporary living arrangement. The ease of installation is a crucial factor for many people, and it is something that should not be ignored when shopping for a new fireplace.
No flue
The biggest advantage of bio ethanol over traditional natural gas or wood fires is that they do not require a chimney to function. In the end, there is no chance of chimney fires that can be caused by the build-up of tar, or a blockage in the flue.
A bio-ethanol fireplace also doesn't produce a lot of particles that can harm the air quality, which is good news for those who suffer from allergies or asthma. Another benefit is that there's no smoke generated by the fire and, therefore, it doesn't cause a bad smell in the room.
Bioethanol fireplaces generate an enormous amount of heat, compared to wood burning fires. This means that you can keep your furniture in close proximity to the fire without worrying about catching fire, which could be dangerous for any valuables.
There are many designs to choose from for a bio ethanol freestanding fireplace. You can choose a sleek and modern look by installing it on the wall or opt for one that is recessed to fit in with the style of your space.
A manual or automatic burner is a second thing to think about. A manual burner requires you to light the fuel directly from the reservoir, while an automatic burner will automatically light the fire when the tank is empty.
After you've used your bio-ethanol fireplace, it's important to let the flames burn out completely and wait until the fireplace is cool before refilling. If you don't do this, the ethanol could evaporate and you will have to start from scratch.
The majority of manufacturers recommend waiting at least 45 minutes before refilling your fire. This will give you enough time to safely remove the flames, and remove any flammable materials from the fire. To prevent accidents, keep any ethanol fuel that you have left away from the reach of pets and children.
Ease of maintenance
Ethanol fireplaces operate by pouring bio ethanol fuel into the fireplace and lighting it. As the fuel burns, it produces the appearance of a flame and the heat can be controlled with a slider (not all designs feature this). By altering the amount of oxygen fed to the fire, you can change how quickly the fuel burns and also the intensity of the flame.
The soot created by the fuel burning can be easily removed with an easy clean cloth. The only other requirement is to keep the burner full of the correct fuel and to ensure it is kept away from any flammable materials or objects.
Another advantage of bio ethanol fires is that you can install them virtually anywhere without needing to worry about chimney regulations or building regulations. This provides you with a large amount of flexibility when it comes to the design of your home and also where you can experience the warmth and ambiance of your new fireplace. You can even opt to have a free-standing model that you can move from room to room.
Wall-mounted bio ethanol fireplaces are able to be fitted into your wall with ease, and some models can be rotated by 180 degrees so you can move the flame and heat into the desired area of your room. You can also mount an electronic remote control on some of the designs to take full control from the comfortable sofa.
For maximum versatility, many of the plug and play' wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are equipped with brackets that let you connect them to a flat or sloping ceiling. This lets you place the fireplace wherever you want it while being in a position to turn it on or off, adjust the flame height, and set the temperature using the remote control.
When you are not using your ethanol fire ensure that it is turned off and is away from any flammable materials or supplies. Also, don't attempt to pour additional fuel inside the burner until it has cooled down to room temperature and always be careful when handling the burner since it is very hot.
