Bio Ethanol fireplaces wood
Ethanol fireplaces are great for bringing a cozy feel to any space without the need for expensive structural work or gas supply. They are the most secure fireplace type that is available.
If you are using only bio-ethanol fuel specifically designed for the fire and you adhere to all safety rules the fireplace will perform safely.
Easy installation
Ethanol fires are a quick and easy solution for homeowners looking to change the look of their living space or make a focal point of their home decor. They do not 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.
Whether you opt for an entire fire suite – such as 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. You only need to make sure that your ceiling or wall is strong and follow the directions of the model you choose.
Most ethanol fireplaces that are wall-mounted have the necessary hardware to mount them either like a flat screen TV or recess into the wall. You’ll need to find the studs and install the brackets and extensions, but it will not take more than one hour for professionals to do it.
You also have a choice of automatic or manual bioethanol burners. The automated burner is designed to keep the fuel away from the flames, so that it can burn for longer without the risk of overheating or running out. Manual burners operate similar to fireplaces, with the exception that you will need matches or lighters to light the flames.
When you choose a burner to use in your bio-ethanol fireplace it is important to remember that the burner should be covered by non-combustible materials to ensure that nothing comes in contact with the burning fuel. If you don’t cover your burner properly, it could cause the fire to overheat. This can damage the fireplace.
Ethanol fires are an excellent alternative for those looking to create a striking feature in their home but don’t have the money or time to build a wood or gas fireplace. They’re the perfect option for new homes or renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. They don’t create soot or ash, which means there are no maintenance concerns.
Designs and styles
There are a number of different styles and designs that bio ethanol fireplaces are available in. Some have a more traditional fireplace design that burns wood, while others are designed to look modern and sleek. Each type has the same benefits, regardless of the style that is a genuine flame atmosphere without toxic gasses or smoke.
Ethanol fires can be mounted on the wall or freestanding. Freestanding models are more movable and can be moved around the room as desired. Wall-mounted models, on contrary, are fixed to the wall and may require special mounting equipment. They must also meet certain clearance distances to avoid flammable materials.
The fire is made by a burner pan that is located on the bottom of the fireplace. Fuel is poured into the pan and the fire is lit with a long lighter. It takes about 15 minutes for the flames to reach their maximum potential. Once the flames are set and the fire is ablaze, you can relax, unwind and enjoy the warm atmosphere of your home.
Some ethanol fire places even provide heating settings that can be adjusted. This allows you to customize the amount of heat that your fireplace produces, which can be beneficial if you wish to give you more warmth than simply ambience.
Another benefit 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 without traditional chimney breasts or fireplaces. Additionally, a bio-ethanol fireplace doesn’t produce ash or harmful gases that could pose a risk for those suffering from respiratory issues.
Installing bioethanol fireplaces in your home is also simple. The exact time to install them will depend on the model you choose. However, the majority of models can be set up fairly quickly. You can also choose a portable marble fireplace which you can take with you when you decide to relocate, which makes it a great choice for a temporary living arrangement. It is essential to consider the ease of installation when purchasing an electric fireplace.
No flu
The most significant benefit of bioethanol over traditional wood or natural gas fires is the fact that they do not require a chimney to function. In the end, there is no risk of chimney fires that could 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 suffering from allergies or asthma. The fire doesn’t produce smoke, so it does not create a bad smell in the room.
Bioethanol fireplaces produce a large amount of heat when compared to wood-burning fires. This means you can keep your furniture in close proximity to the flame without worrying about catching alight, which could be dangerous for your valuables.
If you choose to install a freestanding bio ethanol fireplace, there are a few options to pick from. You can choose an elegant and contemporary look by installing it on the wall, or you can get one that is recessed to blend into the style of your space.
A manual or automatic burner is another option to consider. A manual burner requires you to ignite the fuel directly from the reservoir, while an automatic burner will automatically light your fire when the tank is empty.
When you’ve finished using your bio ethanol fireplace, it is important to let the flames completely go out and to wait until the burner is cool before refilling. In the event that you don’t the ethanol will evaporate and you’ll need to start all over again.
The majority of manufacturers advise that you allow at least 45 minutes between refilling your fire, so you have enough time to safely put out the flames and ensure all flammable materials are away from the flame. To avoid any accidents, store any remaining fuel ethanol away from children and pets.
Maintenance ease
The bioethanol fuel is added to the burner and then lit. As the fuel burns, it generates the appearance of a flame and the heat can be controlled by a slider (not all designs include this feature). By changing the amount of oxygen that is fed to the fire, you can alter how quickly the fuel burns and also how high the flame burns.
The soot created from the combustion of fuel is easily removed using a the help of a soft, clean cloth. The only other requirement is to keep the fireplace filled with the correct fuel and to ensure it’s not in contact with flammable materials or objects.
Bioethanol fireplaces are simple to install, and you don’t have to worry about chimneys or building codes. This gives you a lot of flexibility when designing your home and where you want to relax in the warmth of your fireplace electric. You can also choose an open-air model that is portable.
Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are simple to set up and some models allow you to rotate the unit by 180 degrees, allowing you direct the heat and flame to the desired area of the room. You can also mount remote controls on some models to control the entire thing from the comfortable sofa.
For maximum flexibility, a majority of the ‘plug and play’ wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces come with brackets that permit you to attach them to the ceiling in a flat or sloping manner. The fireplace can be installed wherever you want is possible, but you can still make use of the remote control to turn it off and adjust the flame’s height as well as set the temperature.
When you’re not using your ethanol fireplace, make sure to turn it off and keep it clear from any flammable items or materials. Also, don’t add fuel to the burner until it has cooled down to room temperature and always be cautious when handling the fire as it will be very hot.
