Bio Ethanol Fireplaces
Ethanol fireplaces are excellent for bringing a cozy feel to any space without the need for expensive structural work or gas supply. They are the safest fire type available.
If you utilize bio-ethanol fuels that have been specifically formulated for your fireplace and adhere to the safety guidelines your fireplace will be safe to operate.
Installation is simple
Ethanol fireplaces are a straightforward and quick solution for homeowners who want to make their living space more attractive or add a focal piece to their home decor. They don’t require a flue and they don’t produce dangerous smoke which means you don’t need to worry about the build-up of soot on your walls or ceilings.
If you decide to go with an entire fire suite – like 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 simple and doesn’t require any expert assistance. All you need to do is ensure that the wall or ceiling is strong enough and follow the directions for your specific model.
If you opt for a wall-mounted ethanol fireplace, most are supplied with the necessary hardware to allow them to be either hung as a flat-screen television or installed into the wall. You’ll have to locate the studs, and then install the brackets and bio ethanol fireplace extensions however it will not take more than one hour for professionals to do it.
There is also the option of automatic or manual bio ethanol burners. The automatic burner keeps the fuel away from the flames so that it can burn longer without the risk of overheating or running out of. Manual burners operate similar to a fireplace, except that you will need matches or lighters in order to ignite the flames.
It is important to keep in mind that when choosing a bio-ethanol 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 flame could get too hot and cause damage to the fireplace.
The ethanol fire is a great choice for those who want an eye-catching feature to enhance their home, but don’t have the time or money to install wood or gas fireplaces. They are perfect for new or renovated homes in which chimney breasts were removed. They don’t generate soot or ash, so there’s no need for maintenance.
Styles and designs
Bio-ethanol fireplaces are available in various styles and designs. Some are more traditional in their wood-burning fireplace look, while others are designed to look sleek and modern. Each model has the same benefits, regardless of style and ambiance without toxic gasses or smoke.
Ethanol fires can be wall-mounted or freestanding. Freestanding models are more portable and can be moved around the room in any direction you like. Wall-mounted models on the other hand, are fixed to the wall and require special mounting equipment. They also must meet certain distances between flammable substances and the unit.
The fire is made by a burner pan located in the middle of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into the pan, and the fire is then lit with an extended lighter. It takes around 15 minutes for the flames to reach their full potential. Once the fire is lit, you can relax and enjoy your home’s warm atmosphere.
Certain ethanol fire places offer heat settings that can be altered. This lets you alter the amount of heat your fireplace produces, which can be useful if you want it to create more warmth rather than just ambiance.
Another benefit of ethanol fireplaces is that they don’t require a chimney or flue. This makes them an excellent option for new homes or older homes that do not have traditional fireplaces or chimney breasts. In addition, a bio-ethanol fireplace does not generate ash or harmful gases, which can be dangerous for those suffering from respiratory issues.
Installing bioethanol fireplaces in your home is also simple. Although the exact time for installation is dependent on the model you select however, the majority of them can be installed fairly quickly. You can pick an outdoor freestanding fireplace that can be taken with you when you relocate. This is a great choice for temporary living arrangements. It is crucial to think about the ease of installation when you purchase an free standing electric fireplace fireplace.
No Flu
The major advantage bio ethanol fires have over traditional gas or wood fires is that they don’t need a flue in order to function. There is no risk of a chimney fire caused by tar accumulation or a blockage.
A bio ethanol fireplace (see page) does not produce many particles that could harm the air quality, which is great news for people who suffer from allergies or asthma. Another advantage is that there isn’t any smoke produced by the fireplace and, therefore, it doesn’t cause an unpleasant smell in the room.
In contrast to a fireplace that burns wood, bio ethanol fires don’t lose much heat up the chimney, so it produces a huge amount of heat for its size. This means you can keep your furniture close to the fire without having to worry about catching a flame, which could be dangerous for any valuables.
There are a variety of designs available for a bio-ethanol freestanding fireplace. You can go for a sleek and modern look by installing it on the wall, or you can get an recessed model that will 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 you to light the fuel directly from the reservoir, while an automatic one will automatically light your fire once the tank is empty.
It is important that you let the flames completely burn out and wait until the burner cools down before refilling. Otherwise, the ethanol will evaporate and you’ll need to start over.
Most manufacturers recommend that you allow at least 45 minutes between refilling your fire, to ensure that you have plenty of time to safely remove the flames and ensure all materials that are flammable are kept away from the fire. To avoid any accidents, store any spare ethanol fuel away from children and pets.
Easy maintenance
Ethanol fireplaces work by pouring bio ethanol fuel into the fireplace and lighting it. As the fuel burns, it generates the appearance of a flame and the heat can be controlled with an adjustable slider (not all designs include this feature). By adjusting the amount of oxygen supplied to the fire, you can adjust the speed at which the fuel burns and also the intensity of the flame.
The soot that is produced by the fuel burning can be easily cleaned with a a soft clean cloth. The only other thing to do is to keep the fireplace full of the correct fuel and ensure that 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 having to worry about building regulations or chimneys. This gives you a lot of flexibility in designing your home, and where you want to relax in the warmth of your fireplace. You can even opt for a freestanding model that is portable.
Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces can be simple to install, and certain models let you 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 mount a remote control onto some designs to take full control from the couch.
Many of the wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces come with brackets that allow them to be affixed to an unfinished ceiling or a sloping one. This lets you place the electric fireplace wall mounted wherever you want it while being in a position to turn it off or on, adjust the flame height, and set the temperature with the remote control.
When you’re not using the fireplace with ethanol, be sure to shut it off and keep it clear from any flammable objects or materials. Also, don’t pour additional fuel inside the burner until it’s cooled to room temperature. Also, be cautious when handling the fire as it is very hot.
