The Full Guide To Bio Ethanol Fireplace

Bio Ethanol Fireplaces

Ethanol fireplaces can bring a cozy feeling to any space, without the need for costly construction work or gas supply. They are the safest kind of fire available.

If you are using only bio-ethanol fuel specifically formulated for the fire and adhere to all safety rules the fireplace will perform safely.

Installation is simple

Ethanol fires are a simple and simple solution for homeowners who wish to transform their living space or create a focal point for their home decor. There is no need for chimneys and they won't produce dangerous smoke. Smoke won't linger on your ceilings or walls.

If you decide to go with a full fire suite - for example, 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 does not require any assistance from a specialist. All you need to do is make sure that your wall or ceiling is strong and follow the instructions of the model you select.

If you decide to install an ethanol fireplace mounted on the wall they are usually equipped with the fittings that allow them to be hung like a flat-screen TV, or recessed into the wall. It takes an experienced professional around an hour to put in the brackets, extensions and find the studs.

You can also pick between automatic and manual bio ethanol burning devices. The automatic burner is designed to keep the fuel away from the flames so it will burn for longer without the danger of overheating or running out. A manual burner works in the same way as an old-fashioned fireplace, but you'll need to use matches or a lighter to light the flames.

It's important to remember when selecting a bioethanol burner, the burner should be covered with non-combustible material. This will ensure that nothing touches the burning fuel. If you don't cover the burner, the flame could overheat and damage the fireplace.

The Ethanol fire is a fantastic option for those looking for an eye-catching feature to enhance their home, but don't have the time or money to build wood or gas fireplaces. These are ideal for new or renovated homes in which chimney breasts were removed. They don't create soot or ash, so there are no maintenance concerns.

Designs and styles

There are a number of different styles and designs that bio-ethanol fireplaces can be found in. Some are more traditional in their fireplace design that burns wood, while others are designed to be modern and sleek. Each model comes with the same advantages regardless of the style: a real flame ambience free of harmful gases or smoke.

Ethanol fires can be mounted to the wall or freestanding. Freestanding models can be moved around the room to meet your needs. Wall-mounted models on the contrary, are fixed to the wall and may require special mounting equipment. They must also comply with certain distances between flammable materials and the unit.

The fire itself originates from a burner pan that is situated at the bottom of the fireplace. Fuel is poured into this pan and the fire is lit using an extended lighter. It takes around 15 minutes for the fire to reach its full potential for flame. Once the fire is ignited, you can sit back and relax in your home's warm atmosphere.

Some ethanol fire places even have temperature settings that can be altered. This lets you alter the amount of heat that your fireplace produces.

A further benefit of ethanol fires is that there is no need for a chimney or flue. This makes them a great option for new homes or older homes that do not have traditional chimney breasts or fireplaces. Furthermore, a bio-ethanol fire place doesn't produce gas or ash which could be harmful for people with respiratory problems.

Bioethanol fireplaces are easy to install in your home. The exact installation time will depend on the model that you choose. However, most models can be installed fairly quickly. You can opt for a portable freestanding white fireplace that can be carried with you when you relocate. This is a great choice for living arrangements that are temporary. It is important to consider the ease of installation when you purchase a fireplace.

No Flu

The main advantage that bio ethanol fires have over traditional wood or gas electric fires is that they don't need an exhaust pipe to run. This means that there's no chance of chimney fires which could be caused by a build-up of tar or a blockage in the flue.

A bio ethanol fireplace also does not produce many particles that could harm the air, which is good news for those suffering from allergies or asthma. Another advantage is that there isn't any smoke produced by the fireplace which means it doesn't produce a bad smell in the room.

As opposed to a wood-burning fireplace a bio ethanol fire doesn't lose heat to the chimney, and therefore can produce an incredible amount of heat for its size. This allows you to keep your furniture close to the flame without worrying about it catching on fire and causing danger.

There are many designs to choose from for a bio ethanol freestanding fireplace. You can choose a wall-mounted model for an elegant, modern appearance or a recessed model which will blend in with the style of your home.

Another thing to consider is whether you want a manual or an automatic burner. A manual burner requires you to light the fuel directly from the reservoir while an automated one will automatically light the fire when the tank is empty.

It is important that you allow the flames to fully burn out and wait until the burner cools before refilling. If you don't, the ethanol might evaporate and you'll need to start from scratch.

Most manufacturers suggest that you allow at least 45 minutes between refilling your fire, so that you have enough time to properly remove the flames and ensure that all flammable substances are removed from the flame. In addition, it's best to store any leftover ethanol fuel somewhere out of reach of pets and children to prevent any accidents from occurring.

Ease of maintenance

The bioethanol fuel is added to the burner and then lit. The heat and flame created by the burning fuel can be controlled using a slider. (Not all models have this feature). By altering the amount of oxygen is supplied to the fire you can alter the speed at which the fuel burns and also the intensity of the flame.

The soot created from the combustion of fuel can be easily cleaned with a an easy clean cloth. The only other maintenance is to ensure that the burner is filled with the correct fuel and ensure that it's not in contact with flammable materials or objects.

Another benefit of bio ethanol fires is that you can install them almost anywhere without having to worry about building regulations or chimneys. This gives you a huge amount of flexibility when it comes to designing your home and also where you can enjoy the warmth and ambiance of your new fireplace. You can even choose a freestanding fireplace that is portable.

Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces can be simple to set up and some models allow you to rotate the unit by 180 degrees, which allows you to direct the heat and flame to the desired area of the room. You can also mount an electronic remote control on some of the models to control the entire thing from the couch.

A majority of wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces come with brackets to allow them to be affixed to a flat ceiling or sloping one. Installing the electric fireplace anywhere you want is possible, however, you'll still be able to utilize the remote control to turn off the fireplace, adjust flame height and adjust the temperature.

If you're not using your ethanol fireplace, be sure to turn it off and keep it clear from any flammable items or materials. Don't try to pour additional fuel inside the burner until it's cooled to room temperature. Also, be cautious when handling the burner since it is very hot.
