The Often Unknown Benefits Of Bio Ethanol Fireplace
Bio Ethanol Fireplaces
Ethanol fireplaces are great to add a warm feel to any room, without the expense of structure work or gas supply. They are the most secure fireplace type that is available.
As long as you utilize bio-ethanol fuels that have been specifically formulated for your fireplace and adhere to the safety instructions the fireplace will be very safe to operate.
Easy installation
Ethanol fireplaces are an easy and quick option for homeowners looking to revamp their living space or to add a focal point to their home decor. They do not require a flue, and they don't release dangerous smoke, so you don't have to worry about the build-up of soot on your walls or ceilings.
It doesn't matter if you choose a full fire suite - such as 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 simple and doesn't require any expert assistance. All you need to do is make sure that the wall or ceiling is sturdy enough and follow the directions for the model you have chosen.
Most fireplaces made of ethanol that are wall-mounted have the necessary hardware to mount them like flat screen TVs or recess into the wall. It will take an experienced professional approximately one hour to install the brackets, extensions and find the studs.
You can also pick between automatic and manual bio ethanol burning equipment. The automatic burner is designed to keep the fuel away from the flames so that it can burn longer without the danger of overheating or consuming. Manual burners work in the same way as a traditional fireplace, but you'll need matches or lighters to ignite the flames.
When choosing a burner for your bio-ethanol fireplace, it's worth remembering that the burner needs to be covered by non-combustible materials to ensure that nothing comes in contact with the burning fuel. If you do not cover the burner, the fire could overheat and damage the fireplace.
The Ethanol fire is a fantastic choice for those who want an eye-catching feature to bring to their home but don't have the time or budget to build an electric fireplace or gas fireplace. They're a perfect choice for new homes as well as renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. They don't generate ash or soot, so there are no maintenance concerns.
Designs and styles
Bio-ethanol fireplaces are available in different styles and designs. Some are more traditional in their wood-burning fireplace look, while others are designed to look sleek and modern. Whatever the design the fireplaces all have the same benefits: real flames with no fumes or harmful gases.
Ethanol fireplaces can be wall mounted. Freestanding models can be moved around the space to meet your requirements. wall fireplace-mounted models, on other hand, are anchored to the wall and require special mounting equipment. They also must comply with certain clearance distances from flammable substances.
The fire is created through a burner pan, which is located in the middle of the fireplace. Fuel is poured into the pan and the fire is lit with a long lighter. The process takes around 15 minutes for the fire to reach its full flame potential. Once the fire is lit, you can relax and enjoy your home's warm atmosphere.
Some ethanol fire places have heat settings that can be adjusted. This lets you customize the amount of heat your fire produces, which is useful if you want to create more warmth rather than just ambience.
Another advantage of ethanol fireplaces is that they don't require any chimneys or flues. This makes them an excellent option for homes that are new or older ones that don't have traditional fireplaces or chimney breasts. Furthermore, a bio-ethanol fire place 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 type of fireplace you select. However, most models can be set up fairly quickly. You can choose a portable freestanding fireplace that can be taken with you in the event that you decide to move. This is a great choice for temporary living arrangements. It is important to consider the ease of installation when you purchase an electric fireplace.
No Flu
The main benefit that bioethanol fires have over traditional wood or gas fires is that they don't require a flue to operate. There is no chance of a chimney fire caused by tar buildup or a blockage.
A bio-ethanol fireplace doesn't produce many particulates, which can cause harm to the air. This is a great thing for people with allergies or asthma. Another advantage is that there isn't any smoke that is produced by the fire and therefore it doesn't create an unpleasant smell in the room.
In contrast to a fireplace that burns wood, bioethanol fires don't lose heat up the chimney, and therefore can generate a tremendous amount of heat for its size. This means you can keep your furniture in close proximity to the flame without worrying about catching alight that could be hazardous for any valuables.
There are several designs available for a bio ethanol freestanding fireplace. You can select an installation on the wall for modern, sleek design or a recessed model that blends into the style of your home.
A burner that is either manual or automated is another thing to think about. A manual burner requires you to light the fuel directly from the reservoir. A burner that is automated will light your fire automatically when the tank is empty.
After you've used your bio-ethanol fireplace, it is important to let the flames burn out completely and wait until the fire has cooled before refueling. 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 leave at minimum 45 minutes between refilling your fire, to ensure you have enough time to safely extinguish the flames and ensure that all flammable substances are removed from the flame. Additionally, it is recommended to store any remaining ethanol fuel somewhere out of reach of pets and children, to avoid any accidents from occurring.
Easy maintenance
The bioethanol fuel is added to the burner and then lit. The flame and heat produced by the burning fuel can be controlled with the slider. (Not all designs come with this feature). By adjusting the amount of oxygen supplied to the fire, you can change the speed at which fuel burns and also the intensity of the flame.
The soot produced by the fuel burning can be easily removed with the help of a soft clean cloth. The only other requirement for maintenance is keeping the burner properly fueled and making sure it's a safe distance away from any fire-prone objects or equipment.
Bio-ethanol fireplaces are easy to install and you don't have to worry about chimneys or building codes. This allows you to be very flexible in the design of 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 bio ethanol fireplaces can be fitted into your wall easily, and certain models can be rotated by 180 degrees so you can focus the heat and flame into the desired area of your living space. You can even mount a remote control onto some models to control the entire thing from the comfort of your sofa.
A majority of wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are equipped with brackets that allow them to be attached to a flat ceiling or sloped one. This allows you to install the fireplace wherever you want it and still be in a position to turn it on or off and alter the flame's height, and set the temperature using the remote control.
When you're not using your ethanol fireplace, be sure to turn it off and keep it away from any flammable items or materials. Do not add any fuel into the burner until it has reached the temperature of room temperature. Be cautious when handling it as it's extremely hot.
