10 Healthy Bio Ethanol Fireplace Habits

Bio Ethanol Fireplaces

Ethanol stone fireplaces can provide an inviting atmosphere to any room, without the need for expensive structure work or gas supply. They are also the most secure type of fire available.

As long as you only make use of bio-ethanol fuel that has been specifically designed for your fire and follow the safety guidelines the fireplace will be safe to operate.

Installation is easy

Ethanol fires are a simple and simple solution for homeowners looking to make their living spaces more attractive or create a focal point for their home decor. They don't require a flue and don't create dangerous smoke which means you don't need to worry about the build-up of soot on your walls or ceilings.

If you decide to go with a full fire suite - like 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. All you have to do is make sure that the wall or ceiling is sturdy enough and follow the directions for your specific model.

If you opt for a wall-mounted ethanol fireplace they are usually equipped with the fittings that allow them to be mounted like a flat-screen TV or recessed into the wall. You'll need to find the studs and install the brackets and extensions, but it shouldn't take more than an hour for professionals to do it.

You can also choose of automatic or manual bioethanol burners. A burner that is automated will keep the fuel away from the flames, which means it can burn for longer without running out or overheating. Manual burners work in the same way as an old-fashioned fireplace, but you'll need to use matches or lighters to light the flames.

When selecting a burner for your bio-ethanol fireplace it's worth remembering that the burner needs to be covered by non-combustible material to ensure that nothing gets in contact with the burning fuel. If you don't cover your burner, it could cause the fire to overheat. This can damage the fireplace.

Ethanol fires are a great option for people who want to create a dramatic focal point in their home but don't have the budget or time to install gas or wood fireplaces. They are great for new construction and renovations where chimney breasts were removed. They don't produce soot or ash, so there are no maintenance concerns.

Designs and styles

There are a variety of different styles and designs that bio ethanol fireplaces are available in. Some are more traditional in their wood-burning fireplace look, while others are designed to be sleek and modern. Each model has the same benefits, regardless of design: a real flame ambience without toxic gases or smoke.

Ethanol fires can be mounted to the wall or freestanding. Freestanding models are more portable and can be moved around the room in any direction you like. Wall-mounted models on the other hand, are fixed to the wall and may require special mounting equipment. They also must comply with certain clearance distances to avoid flammable materials.

The fire itself is created by the burner pan, which is situated on the bottom of the fireplace. Fuel is poured into the pan and the fire is then lit with a long lighter. It takes about 15 minutes for the flames to reach their full potential. Once the fire is ignited, you can relax and enjoy the warm ambience of your home.

Some ethanol fireplaces even have adjustable heat settings. This lets you alter the amount of heat the fireplace produces.

A further benefit of ethanol fires is that there is no need for an chimney or flue. This makes them a great option for older homes or newer homes without chimney fireplaces or traditional fireplaces. Bio-ethanol fires do not emit harmful gases or ash, which can be dangerous for people with respiratory conditions.

Bio ethanol fireplaces are also easy to install inside your home. The exact installation time will depend on the model that you select. However, most models can be installed fairly quickly. You can even choose a portable fireplace that you can carry 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 you purchase the fireplace.

No Flu

The big advantage that bio ethanol fires have over traditional gas or wood fires is that they don't require an exhaust pipe to run. This means that there's no chance of chimney fires that could be caused by the accumulation of tar or an obstruction in the flue.

Bio-ethanol fireplaces don't release many particulates, which can affect the air. This is great for those suffering from asthma or allergies. The fireplace doesn't release smoke, which means it doesn't create a bad smell in the room.

As opposed to a wood-burning fireplace bio ethanol fires don't lose a lot of heat up the chimney, and therefore produces a huge amount of heat for its size. This allows you to keep your furniture near the fire without having to worry about it getting caught on fire, which could be dangerous.

If you opt for a freestanding bio ethanol fireplace, there are a few different designs you can choose from. You can pick a wall-mounted model for an elegant, modern appearance or a recessed unit that blends into the design of your room.

A burner that is either manual or automated is another thing to think about. A manual burner requires you to ignite the fuel directly from the reservoir, while an automated one will automatically light your fire once the tank is empty.

It is essential to let the flames completely burn out and wait until the burner cools down before refueling. If you don't, the ethanol could evaporate and you'll have to start over.

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

Maintenance is easy

The bio ethanol fuel is poured into the burner, and then ignited. The heat and flame produced by the burning fuel can be controlled using the slider. (Not all designs have this feature). By changing the amount of oxygen that is fed to the fire, you can adjust how quickly the fuel burns and how high the flame burns.

The soot created by the burning of fuel can be easily removed with the help of a soft, clean cloth. The only other thing to do is to keep the fireplace filled with the correct fuel and to ensure it is kept away from any dangerous materials or objects.

Another advantage of bio ethanol fires is that you can install them almost anywhere without needing to worry about building regulations or chimneys. This allows you to be very flexible in the design of your home and where you want to sit and enjoy the warmth of your fireplace. You can even choose a freestanding model that is portable.

Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are easy to set up and some models allow you to rotate the unit by 180 degrees, allowing you to direct the heat and flame towards the desired location of the room. Some models come with a remote controls that allow you to control the fireplace from your couch.

To maximize versatility, a lot of the 'plug and play' wall-mounted bio ethanol fireplaces have brackets that allow you to attach them to an unfinished or sloped ceiling. The fireplace can be installed wherever you want is possible, however, you can still use the remote control to turn off the fireplace, adjust flame height and set temperature.

When you're not using your fireplace with ethanol, be sure to shut it off and keep it clear from any flammable items or materials. Do not add any fuel into the burner until the burner has reached the temperature of room temperature. Be cautious when handling it as it's extremely hot.
