Bio Ethanol Fireplaces
Ethanol
fireplaces electric are ideal for adding a warm and cozy atmosphere to any room without the expense of construction or gas supply. They are also the safest kind of fire that is available.
If you utilize bio-ethanol fuels that have been specifically formulated for your fire and follow the safety instructions the fireplace will be safe to operate.
Easy installation
Ethanol
electric fires are a fast and simple solution for homeowners who wish to change the look of their living space or add a focal point to their home decor. They don't 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.
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, available at PS569 - or a freestanding model that can 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 ensure that the wall or ceiling is sturdy enough and follow the instructions for the model you have chosen.
Most ethanol fireplaces that are wall-mounted come with the equipment needed to install them as a flat screen TV or recess into the
wall fires. It will take an experienced professional around an hour to install the brackets, extensions, and find the studs.
You can also select between automatic and manual bioethanol burning devices. An automatic burner keeps the fuel away from the flames, which means it can burn for longer without risk of running out or overheating. Manual burners function exactly like a fireplace, except that you will need matches or lighters to light the flames.
It's important to remember when choosing a bio ethanol burner, the burner should be covered with non-combustible materials. This will ensure that nothing touches the burning fuel. If you do not cover your burner, it could cause the fire to overheat. This can damage the fireplace.
Ethanol fires are a great alternative for those looking to create a dramatic feature in their home, but don't have the budget or time to build gas or wood fireplaces. They are perfect for new construction and renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. They don't produce ash or soot, so there's no need for maintenance.
Styles and designs
There are a number of different styles and designs that bio
ethanol fireplaces come in. Some bio ethanol fireplaces have an old-fashioned wood-burning style and others have modern and sleek design. Every type of fireplace offers the same advantages, regardless of the style and ambiance without harmful fumes or smoke.
Ethanol fires can be mounted to the wall or freestanding. Freestanding models are more portable and can be moved around the room as desired. Wall-mounted models are anchored to the walls and may require special mounting gear. They must also meet certain clearance distances from flammable materials.
The fire itself is created by the burner pan, which is located on the bottom of the fireplace. Fuel is poured into this pan and then the fire is lit using an extended lighter. It takes around 15 minutes for the flames to reach their maximum potential. Once the fire is lit you can relax and enjoy the warm and cozy atmosphere of your home.
Certain ethanol fire places offer heating settings that can be altered. This allows you to customize the amount of heat that your fireplace produces, which is beneficial if you wish to provide more warmth than just ambiance.
Another advantage of ethanol fireplaces is that they don't require any chimneys or flues. This makes them an excellent option for older homes as well as modern homes that do not have chimney breasts or traditional fireplaces. A bio-ethanol fireplace does not release harmful gases or ash, which can be harmful to those who suffer from respiratory issues.
Bio ethanol fireplaces are also easy to install within your home. Although the exact time for installation is dependent on the model you choose the majority can be installed relatively quickly. You can also choose an open-air fireplace which you can take with you if you ever relocate, which makes it an ideal option for a temporary home. It is essential to consider the ease of installation when purchasing a fireplace.
No flu
The main benefit of bio ethanol over traditional wood or natural gas fires is that they don't require a chimney for operation. There is no risk of a chimney fire that is caused by tar buildup or blockage.
A bio ethanol
fireplace does not produce many particles that can harm the air quality, which is a great thing for those suffering from asthma or allergies. The fire doesn't produce smoke, therefore it won't cause unpleasant odor in the room.
Bioethanol fireplaces generate an enormous amount of heat compared to wood-burning fires. This means you can keep your furniture near the fire without worrying about catching alight which could be dangerous for your valuables.
If you choose to install a freestanding bio-ethanol fireplace, there are a few different designs you can choose from. You can pick one that is wall-mounted for modern, sleek design or a recessed model that blends into the style of your home.
A manual or automatic burner is a different option to consider. A manual burner requires that you light the fuel from the reservoir. A burner that is automated will automatically light your fire after the tank is completely empty.
When you've finished using your bio ethanol fireplace, it is essential to let the flames completely burn out and to wait until the fire is cool before refilling. If you don't, the ethanol could evaporate and you'll need to start again.
Most manufacturers recommend waiting at least 45 minutes before refilling your fire. This will allow you enough time to remove the flames, and then remove any flammable material from the fire. To avoid any accidents, store any spare ethanol fuel out of reach of pets and children.
Easy maintenance
The bio ethanol fuel is added to the burner and then lit. As the fuel burns, it produces the appearance of a flame and the heat can be adjusted using an adjustable slider (not all designs feature this). By changing the amount of oxygen 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 is easily removed using a an easy, clean cloth. The only other maintenance required is keeping the burner filled with the correct fuel and ensuring it's a safe distance away from any flammable objects or supplies.
Bio ethanol fireplaces are also easy to set up, and you don't have to worry about chimneys or building codes. This allows you to be very flexible in designing your home, and the location you wish to sit and enjoy the warmth of your fireplace. You can also choose a freestanding fireplace that is portable.
Wall-mounted bio ethanol fireplaces can be installed on your wall with ease, and some models can be rotated by 180 degrees to focus the heat and flame into the desired area of your room. You can also mount a remote control onto certain designs to take full control from the comfortable sofa.
Many of the bioethanol fireplaces that are mounted on walls are fitted with brackets that allow them to be attached to a flat ceiling or sloping one. Installing the 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 set the temperature.
If you're not using your ethanol fire ensure that it is shut off and kept away from any flammable materials or equipment. Do not add any fuel into the burner until the burner has reached temperatures that are at or near the level of ambient temperature.
