Bio Ethanol Fireplaces
Ethanol fireplaces are excellent to add a warm feel to any room, without the need for costly structure work or gas supply. They are the safest kind of fire available.
If you are using only bio-ethanol fuel that is specifically designed for your fireplace and follow all safety instructions the fireplace will be operating in a safe manner.
Installation is easy
Ethanol fireplaces are an easy and quick option for homeowners looking to revamp their living space or 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 be concerned about the accumulation of soot on your ceilings or walls.
If you decide to go with the complete fire suite - such as Mano Mano's Adam Solus Fireplace Suite in Oak with Colorado Bio Ethanol Fire in Black, available at 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 the ceiling or wall is strong enough and follow the instructions for the model you have chosen.
If you opt for an ethanol fireplace that is wall-mounted Most come with the hardware that allows them to be hung as a flat-screen television or installed into the wall. It will take an experienced professional around an hour to put in the brackets, extensions, and find the studs.
You can also choose between manual and automatic bio ethanol burning equipment. A burner that is automated will keep the fuel at a safe distance from the flames, which means it will burn longer without risk of running out or overheating. A manual burner works in the same way as a traditional fireplace, but you'll need matches or a lighter to light 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 touches the burning fuel. If you don't cover your burner properly, it could cause the fire to overheat. This could cause damage to the fireplace.
The ethanol fire is a great option for those looking for a dramatic feature to add to their home but do not have the time or money to build a gas or wood fireplace. They're the perfect choice for new homes as well as renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. They also do not generate soot or ash, there are no problems with maintenance, either.
Styles and designs
Bio ethanol fireplaces are available in different styles and designs. Some have a more traditional wood-burning look, whereas others are designed to be modern and sleek. Each model has the same benefits, regardless of the style: a real flame ambience free of harmful gases or smoke.
Ethanol fires can be wall-mounted or freestanding. Freestanding models are more mobile and can be moved around the room according to what is desired. Wall-mounted models are attached to the walls and may require special mounting gear. They must also comply with certain distances between flammable substances and the unit.
The fire itself is created by a burner pan that is situated on the bottom of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into the pan and the fire is ignited using a long lighter. The process takes about 15 minutes for the fire to reach its full potential for flame. Once the fire is lit, you can relax and enjoy your home's warm atmosphere.
Some ethanol fireplaces even have adjustable heating settings. This lets you alter the amount of heat your fire produces, which can be useful if you want to give you more warmth than just ambience.
Another advantage of ethanol fireplaces is that they do not require any chimneys or flues. This makes them a great option for homes that are new or older ones that don't have traditional fireplaces or chimney breasts. A bio-ethanol fire does not release harmful gasses or ash, which can be harmful to those with respiratory conditions.
Bioethanol fireplaces are simple to install inside your home. While the exact installation time is dependent on the model you choose, most are installed in a short time. You can even choose an open-air fireplace that you can carry with you when you decide to relocate, which makes it an ideal choice for a temporary home. It is crucial to think about the ease of installation when you purchase the fireplace.
No flue
The major benefit that bioethanol fires have over traditional wood or gas fires is that they don't require a flue in order to function. There is no chance of a chimney fire caused by tar accumulation or a blockage.
A bio ethanol fireplace does not produce many particles that can harm the air quality, which is good news for those who suffer from asthma or allergies. The fire doesn't produce smoke, so it doesn't create a bad smell in the room.
Bio ethanol fireplaces produce lots of heat when compared to wood-burning fires. This lets you keep your furniture near the fire without having to worry about it burning and causing danger.
There are a variety of designs available for a bio-ethanol freestanding fireplace. You can choose modern and sleek design by installing it on the wall or choose an recessed model that will blend in with the design of your space.
Another thing to think about is whether you'd prefer an automatic or a manual burner. A manual burner requires you to ignite the fuel from the reservoir. A burner that is automated will light your fire automatically when the tank is empty.
When you've finished using your bio ethanol fireplace, it's important to let the flames completely go out and to wait until the fireplace is cool before refilling. In the event that you don't the ethanol will evaporate and you'll have to start over.
Most manufacturers suggest waiting at least 45 minutes prior to refilling your fire. This will give you time to safely eliminate the flames and remove any flammable materials from the fire. To prevent accidents, keep any spare ethanol fuel out of reach of pets and children.
Maintenance ease
Ethanol fireplaces work by pouring bio-ethanol fuel into the burner before lighting it. The flame and heat produced by the burning fuel can be controlled with an adjustable slider. (Not all designs have this feature). By altering the amount of oxygen is fed to the fire you can alter how fast the fuel is burned and how high the flame burns.
As the fuel burns it releases tiny amounts of soot, which is easily cleaned by wiping down the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other thing to do is to ensure that the burner is filled with the correct fuel and making sure it is kept away from any flammable objects or other equipment.
Another benefit of bio ethanol fires is that you can install them almost anywhere without worrying about chimneys or building regulations. This allows you to enjoy a vast amount of flexibility when it comes to the design of your home and also where you can enjoy the warmth and beauty of your new fireplace. You can also choose an open-air model that can be moved.
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. Certain models come with remote controls that allow you to control the fireplace from the comfort of your couch.
To maximize versatility, a lot of the 'plug and play' wall-mounted bio ethanol fireplaces are equipped with brackets that let you attach them to the ceiling in a flat or sloping manner. This allows you to place the fireplace wherever you want it while being in a position to turn it on or off and adjust the flame's height, and set the temperature using the remote control.
When you are not using your ethanol flame, make sure that it is turned off and a safe distance away from any flammable substances or equipment. Do not pour any fuel into the burner until it has reached temperatures that are at or near the level of ambient temperature. Be careful when handling it because it's extremely hot.
