Designs and styles

After you've used your bioethanol fireplace it's important to let the flames completely burn out and to wait until the burner has cooled before refueling. Otherwise the ethanol will evaporate and you'll have to start again.
The majority of manufacturers suggest waiting at least 45 minutes prior to refilling your fire. This gives you enough time to extinguish the flames, and to remove any flammable materials from the fire. Additionally, it is recommended to store any remaining fuel with ethanol out of reach of pets and children to prevent any accidents from occurring.
Maintenance is easy
The bio ethanol fuel is put into the burner and then ignited. As the fuel burns, it generates a flame and heat that can be controlled by 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 fuel is burned and how high the flame burns.

When you're not using the fireplace with ethanol, be sure to shut it off and keep it away from any flammable items or materials.
