Bio Ethanol Fireplaces
Ethanol fireplaces are excellent for adding a warm and cozy atmosphere to any space without the expense of structure work or gas supply. They are also the most secure kind of fire you can find.
If you only use bio-ethanol fuel that is specifically designed for the fire, and follow all safety instructions then your fireplace will operate in a safe manner.
Installation is easy
Ethanol fireplaces are a simple and quick solution for homeowners who want to transform their living area or to add a focal point to their home decor. They do not require a flue, and they don't release dangerous smoke which means you don't need to worry about the build up of soot on your ceilings or walls.
Whether you opt for a full fire suite - such as Mano Mano's Adam Solus Fireplace Suite in Oak with Colorado Bio Ethanol Fire in Black from PS569 - or a freestanding 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. It is all you have to do is sure that the ceiling or wall is strong and follow the directions for the model you choose.
If you decide to install a wall-mounted ethanol fireplace, most are supplied with the necessary hardware to allow them to be hung like a flat-screen TV or recessed into the wall. You'll have to locate the studs, and then install the brackets and extensions however, it shouldn't take more than an hour for professionals to do it.
You also have a choice of manual or automated bio ethanol burners. A burner that is automated will keep the fuel away from the flames, which means it will burn longer without risk of running out or overheating. Manual burners work exactly the same way as a traditional fireplace, but you'll need matches or lighters to ignite the flames.
It is important to keep in mind that when choosing a bio-ethanol burner, the burner should be covered with non-combustible material. This will ensure that nothing gets 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 dramatic focal point in their home but don't have the budget or time to build gas or [wood fireplaces](https://www.fireplacesandstove.com/). They are perfect for renovations and new homes where chimney breasts were removed. Since they do not produce soot or ash, there aren't any maintenance issues to worry about or worry about.
Designs and styles
There are a number of different styles and designs that bio ethanol fireplaces are available in. Some have a more traditional wood-burning fireplace look, while others are designed to be modern and sleek. Each type offers the same advantages, regardless of the style: a real flame ambience without harmful gases or smoke.
Ethanol fires can be mounted on the wall or freestanding. Freestanding models are more movable and can be moved around the room in any direction you like. Wall-mounted models are attached to the walls and require specialized mounting gear. They also have to meet certain distances between flammable materials and the unit.
The fire is created by a burner pan that is located at the bottom of the fireplace. Fuel is poured into the pan and the fire is lit with a long-lasting lighter. The process takes about 15 minutes to get the fire up to its full potential for flame. Once the fire is ignited, you can sit back and relax in the warm and cozy atmosphere of your home.
Some ethanol fire places provide heat settings that can be altered. This allows you to customize the amount of heat your fireplace produces, which can be useful if you want it to create more warmth rather than just ambiance.
Another advantage of ethanol fireplaces is that they do not require any chimneys or flues. This makes them a great option for older homes or newer ones that don't have chimney fireplaces or traditional fireplaces. A bio-ethanol fire does not emit harmful gases or ash, which can be dangerous for people with respiratory conditions.
Installing bioethanol fireplaces into your home is also easy. Although the exact time for installation is dependent on the model you choose the majority can be installed fairly quickly. You can even choose an open-air fireplace that you can carry with you in the event of a relocate, making it an ideal choice to use as a temporary living arrangement. The ease of installation is an important factor for many consumers, and it is something that should not be ignored when shopping for a new fireplace.
No flu
The big benefit that bioethanol fires have over traditional gas or wood fires is that they don't need a flue to operate. There is no chance of a chimney fire caused by tar buildup or a blockage.
A bio ethanol fireplace also doesn't produce a lot of particles that could harm the air, which is a great thing for those suffering from allergies or asthma. Another advantage is that there is no smoke generated by the fire which means it doesn't produce an unpleasant smell in the room.
Bioethanol fireplaces generate lots of heat compared to wood-burning fires. This means you can keep your furniture in close proximity to the flame without having to worry about catching a flame, which could be dangerous for any valuables.
If you opt for a freestanding bioethanol fireplace, there are a few different designs to choose from. You can pick one that is wall-mounted for an elegant, modern appearance or a recessed model that will blend into the design of your space.
A burner that is either manual or automated is a second option to consider. 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.
When you're done using your bio ethanol fireplace, it's important to let the flames burn out completely and wait until the fire has cooled before refueling. If you don't, the ethanol might evaporate and you'll need to start again.
Most manufacturers suggest waiting at least 45 minutes before refilling your fire. This will give you enough time to safely extinguish the flames, and remove any flammable materials from the fire. In addition, it's best to store any remaining fuel with ethanol out of reach of children and pets, to avoid any accidents from happening.
Easy maintenance
Ethanol fireplaces operate by pouring bio ethanol fuel into the fireplace and lighting it. As the fuel burns, it generates a flame and heat that can be adjusted using an adjustable slider (not all designs feature this). By altering the amount of oxygen fed to the fire, you can change how quickly the fuel burns and also the intensity of the flame.
When the fuel is burned, it creates a small amount of soot, but this can be easily cleaned by wiping down the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other requirement for maintenance is to ensure that the fireplace is full of the correct fuel and making sure it is kept away from any fire-prone objects or supplies.
Another benefit of bio ethanol fires is that you can set them almost anywhere without needing to worry about chimneys or building regulations. This provides you with a large amount of flexibility when it comes to designing your home, and also where you can experience the warmth and ambiance of your new fireplace. You could even choose to have a freestanding model that can be moved from room to room.
Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces can be installed on your wall with ease, and some models can be rotated 180 degrees so you can direct the flame and heat to the desired space of your living space. You can even put an electronic remote control on certain designs to have full control from the couch.
For maximum flexibility, a majority of the plug and play' wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces have brackets that allow you to attach them to a flat or sloping ceiling. Installing the fireplace anywhere you like is possible, however, you'll still be able to use the remote control to turn it off and adjust the flame's height as well as adjust the temperature.
When you are not using your ethanol flame ensure that it is turned off and kept away from any flammable materials or supplies. Also, don't attempt to pour additional fuel inside the burner until it's cooled to room temperature. Also, be careful when handling the burner since it will be very hot.
