Bio Ethanol Fireplaces
Ethanol fireplaces are ideal for adding a warm and cozy atmosphere to any space without the need for costly construction or gas supply. They are also the safest kind of fire that is available.
As long as you only utilize bio-ethanol fuels that have been specifically formulated for your fire and you follow the safety guidelines, your fireplace should be safe to operate.
Installation is easy
Ethanol fireplaces are a straightforward and quick option for homeowners looking to transform their living area or add a focal piece to their home decor. There is no need for freestanding fireplace chimneys and they don't emit dangerous smoke. Soot won't accumulate on your walls or ceilings.
It doesn't matter if you choose the complete fire suite - such as Mano Mano's Adam Solus Fireplace Suite 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 requires no specialist help. All you need to do is ensure that the wall or ceiling is strong enough and follow the instructions for the model you have chosen.
If you decide to install a wall-mounted ethanol fireplace they are usually equipped with the necessary hardware to allow them to be either hung like a flat-screen TV, or recessed into the wall. It will take a professional about an hour to put in the brackets, extensions and locate the studs.
You can also pick between manual and automatic bio ethanol burning equipment. A burner that is automated will keep the fuel at a safe distance from the flames, ensuring it will burn longer without the risk of burning out or overheating. Manual burners work similarly to an old-fashioned fireplace, but 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 needs to be covered by non-combustible material to make sure that nothing comes into contact with the burning fuel. If you don't cover your burner, it could cause the fire to overheat. This could cause damage to the fireplace insert.
The Ethanol fire is a fantastic alternative for those looking to have a dramatic feature to add to their home, but don't have the time or money to install a gas or wood fireplace inserts. They are perfect for new or renovated homes in which chimney breasts were removed. They don't generate soot or ash, so there are no maintenance concerns.
Styles and designs
There are many different styles and designs that bio ethanol fireplaces are available in. Some have a more traditional wood-burning fireplace look, while others are designed to look modern and sleek. No matter what style the fireplaces all have the same benefits: authentic flame ambience with no smoke or toxic gases.
Ethanol fireplaces can be wall mounted. Freestanding models are more portable and can be moved around the room as desired. Wall-mounted models on the contrary, are fixed to the wall and require special mounting equipment. They also must meet certain distances between flammable materials and the unit.
The fire itself originates from a burner pan that is located on the bottom of the fireplace. Fuel is poured in this pan and the fire is lit by a long lighter. It takes around 15 minutes for the flames to reach their full potential. Once the flames have been established then it's time to relax, sit back and enjoy the warm ambience of your home.
Some ethanol fire places have heating settings that can be altered. This allows you to adjust the amount of heat that your fireplace generates.
Another benefit of ethanol fireplaces is that they do not require any chimney or flue. This makes them a great option for homes that are new or older homes without traditional chimney breasts or fireplaces. Additionally, a bio-ethanol fireplace does not produce any gas or ash that could pose a risk for those suffering from respiratory issues.
Bioethanol fireplaces are simple to install inside your home. While the exact time to install will depend on the model you select the majority are installed in a short time. You can opt for a portable freestanding fireplace that can be taken with you in the event that you move. This is a great choice for temporary living arrangements. It is important to consider the ease of installation when purchasing an electric fireplace.
No flue
The major benefit that bioethanol fires have over traditional gas or wood fires is that they don't require a flue to operate. There is no risk of a chimney fire that is caused by tar accumulation or a blockage.
A bio ethanol fireplace also does not produce many particles that could 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 produce a large amount of heat, compared to wood burning fires. This allows you to keep your furniture close to the flame without having to worry about it getting caught on fire which could be hazardous.
There are a variety of designs available for a bio ethanol freestanding fireplace. You can opt for an elegant and contemporary look with a wall-mounted model, or you can get a recessed version that will fit in with the style of your room.
A burner that is either manual or automated is a different aspect to consider. A manual burner requires you to ignite the fuel directly from the reservoir, while an automatic burner will automatically light the fire when the tank is empty.
It is crucial to allow the flames to fully burn out and wait until the burner cools down before refilling. Otherwise, the ethanol will evaporate and you'll have to start again.
Most manufacturers recommend that you allow at minimum 45 minutes between refilling your fire, so you have enough time to safely extinguish the flames and ensure all flammable materials are away from the fire. To avoid any accidents, store any ethanol fuel that you have left away from pets and children.
Easy maintenance
The bioethanol fuel is put into the burner and then lit. The heat and flame produced by the burning fuel can be controlled with a slider. (Not all designs come with this feature). By adjusting the amount of oxygen that is fed to the fire, you can adjust the speed at which the fuel is burned and the intensity of the flame.
When the fuel is burned, it produces tiny amounts of soot. However, this is easily cleaned by wiping the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other thing to do is to keep the fireplace topped up with the right fuel and to ensure it's kept away from items or materials that are flammable.
Bio ethanol fireplaces are also easy to install and you don't have to be concerned about chimneys or building codes. This gives you great flexibility when designing your home and where you want to relax in the warmth of your fireplace. You can even choose a freestanding fireplace that can be moved.
Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are easy to install, and certain models let you rotate the unit 180 degrees, allowing you direct the heat and flame towards the desired location of the room. You can even put remote controls on some designs to take full control from the comfort of your sofa.
For maximum versatility, many of the plug and play' wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces come with brackets that allow you to attach them to the ceiling in a flat or sloping manner. This allows you to place the fireplace wherever you want it, and be able to turn it off or on and adjust the flame's height, and adjust the temperature with the remote control.
When you are not using your ethanol fire, make sure that it is off and a safe distance away from any flammable materials or supplies. Do not pour any fuel into the burner until it is at the temperature of room temperature. Be cautious when handling it as it is very hot.
