How Bio Ethanol Fireplace Can Be Your Next Big Obsession

Bio Ethanol Fireplaces

Ethanol fireplaces can give warmth to any space, without the need for expensive construction or gas supply. They are also the most secure type of fire available.

If you utilize bio-ethanol fuels that have been specifically designed for your fire and follow the safety instructions, your fireplace should be extremely safe to use.

Installation is simple

Ethanol fireplaces are a simple and quick option for homeowners looking to transform their living area or to add a focal point to their home decor. They don’t require a flue and don’t create dangerous smoke, so you don’t have to worry about the build-up of soot on your walls or ceilings.

Whether you opt for the complete fire suite – for example, Mano Mano’s Adam Solus Fireplace Suite in Oak with Colorado Bio Ethanol Fire in Black, available at 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 make sure that the ceiling or wall is sturdy and follow the directions for the model you select.

If you opt for an ethanol fireplace mounted on the wall, most are supplied with the hardware that allows them to be either hung like a flat-screen TV, or placed in the wall. It takes an experienced professional approximately one hour to install the brackets, extensions, and find the studs.

You can also select between manual and automatic bio ethanol burning devices. An automatic burner will keep the fuel at a safe distance from the flames, meaning it can burn for longer without risk of running out or overheating. Manual burners work exactly the same way as a traditional fireplace, but you’ll need to use matches or lighters to ignite the flames.

When selecting a burner for your bio-ethanol fireplace, it’s important to keep in mind that the burner should be covered with non-combustible materials to ensure that nothing comes in contact with the burning fuel. If you do not cover the burner, the flame could become too hot and damage the fireplace.

The Ethanol fireplace is a wonderful option for those looking for an eye-catching feature to add to their home but don’t have the time or money to set up a gas or wood fireplace. They’re the perfect option for new homes or renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. They don’t create soot or ash, so there’s no need for maintenance.

Designs and styles

Bio ethanol fireplaces come in various styles and designs. Some have a more traditional wood-burning look, whereas others are designed to look modern and sleek. Each type comes with the same advantages regardless of style and ambiance without toxic fumes or smoke.

Ethanol fireplaces can be wall mounted. Freestanding models can be moved around a room to meet your needs. Wall-mounted models, on contrary, are fixed to the wall and may require special mounting equipment. They must also meet certain clearance distances from flammable materials.

The fire itself is created by a burner pan situated at the bottom of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into the pan, and the fire is then lit with a long lighter. It takes around 15 minutes for the flames to reach their maximum potential. Once the flames are established, it’s time to relax, unwind and enjoy the warm ambiance of your home.

Certain ethanol fireplaces come with adjustable temperature settings. This lets you adjust the amount of heat your fireplace produces.

Another advantage of ethanol fireplaces is that they do not require a chimney or flue. This makes them a great alternative for older homes or newer ones that don’t have chimney fireplaces or traditional fireplaces. Additionally, a bio-ethanol fireplace doesn’t produce ash or harmful gases, which can be dangerous for those suffering from respiratory issues.

Bioethanol fireplaces are easy to install inside your home. The exact installation time will depend on the model you choose. However, most models can be installed quickly. You can also choose a portable fireplace that you can carry with you if you ever relocate, making it an ideal choice for a temporary home. The ease of installation is an important factor for many people and it’s something to consider when shopping for an upgrade to your fireplace.

No Flu

The biggest advantage of bio ethanol 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 buildup or a blockage.

A bio-ethanol fireplace also does not produce many particles that can harm the air, which is great news for people who suffer from asthma or allergies. The fire does not produce smoke, so it does not create a unpleasant odor in the room.

Unlike a wood-burning fireplace, bio ethanol fires don’t lose a lot of heat through the chimney, which means it produces a huge amount of heat for its size. This allows you to place your furniture in close proximity to the flame without worrying about it getting caught on fire, which could be dangerous.

There are several designs available for a bio ethanol freestanding fireplace. You can opt for a sleek and modern look with a wall-mounted model or choose one that is recessed to fit in with the style of your space.

A burner that is either manual or automated is a second thing to think about. A manual burner requires that you ignite the fuel from the reservoir. An automatic burner will light your fire automatically when the tank is empty.

It is essential to allow the flames to fully burn out and wait until the burner cools down before refilling. If you don’t, the ethanol might evaporate and you will have to start over.

Most manufacturers suggest waiting at least 45 minutes before refilling your fire. This gives you time to safely remove the flames, and to remove any flammable materials from the fire. To avoid accidents, store any spare ethanol fuel out of reach of children and pets.

Easy maintenance

Ethanol fireplaces work by pouring bio ethanol fuel into the burner and lighting it. As the fuel burns, it produces the appearance of a flame and the heat can be adjusted using an adjustable slider (not all designs include this feature). By adjusting the amount of oxygen fed to the fire, you can alter the speed at which the fuel burns and the intensity of the flame.

As the fuel burns it creates some soot, but this can be easily cleaned by wiping the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other thing to do is to ensure that the burner is topped up with the right fuel and ensure that it’s not in contact with items or materials that are flammable.

Another advantage of bio ethanol fires is that you can install them almost anywhere, without needing to worry about chimneys or building regulations. This allows you to enjoy a vast amount of flexibility when it comes to designing your home and where you can enjoy the warmth and charm of your new fireplace. You can also opt to have a free-standing fireplace that you can move from room to room.

Wall-mounted bio ethanol fireplaces can be installed on your wall easily, and certain models can be turned 180 degrees so you can move the flame and heat to the desired space of your living space. You can even put a remote control onto some designs to have full control from the comfortable sofa.

To maximize versatility, a lot of the ‘plug and play’ wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces come with brackets that let you connect them to a flat or sloping ceiling. The fireplace can be installed wherever you’d like is possible however, you’ll still be able to use the remote control to shut it off, adjust flame height and adjust the temperature.

If you’re not using your ethanol ethonal fire, make sure that it is shut off and is away from any flammable materials or other equipment. Do not pour any fuel into the burner until the burner is at room temperature. Be cautious when handling it because it is extremely hot.
