8 Tips To Improve Your Bio Ethanol Fireplace Game
Bio Ethanol Fireplaces
Ethanol fireplaces can provide an inviting atmosphere to any room without the need for expensive structure work or gas supply. They are also the safest type of fire available.
As long as you make use of bio-ethanol fuel that has been specifically designed for your fire and you follow the safety guidelines, your fireplace should be safe to operate.
Installation is easy
Ethanol fireplaces are a straightforward and quick solution for homeowners looking to make their living space more attractive or add a focal point to their home decor. They don't require a flue and don't create dangerous smoke, so you don't have to worry about the build-up of soot on your walls or ceilings.
It doesn't matter if you choose an entire fire suite - like Mano Mano's Adam Solus Fireplace Suite in Oak with Colorado Bio Ethanol ethonal 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 requires no specialist help. All you need to do is make sure that the wall or ceiling is strong enough and follow the directions for the specific model.
If you choose a wall-mounted ethanol fireplace they are usually equipped with the necessary hardware to allow them to be hung like a flat-screen TV or installed into the wall. You'll need to locate the studs and install the brackets and extensions, but it shouldn't take more than an hour for an expert to do this.
You also have a choice of manual or automated bio ethanol burners. The automatic burner keeps the fuel away from the flames, so that it will burn for longer without the danger of overheating or running out. Manual burners operate exactly like fireplaces, but you'll need matches or lighters to ignite the flames.
When you choose a burner to use in your bio-ethanol fireplace, it's worth remembering that the burner needs to be covered by non-combustible material to ensure that nothing comes into contact with the burning fuel. If you do not cover your burner, it could cause the fire to overheat. This could damage the fireplace.
Ethanol fires are a great alternative for those looking to create a dramatic focal point in their home, but don't have the budget or time to install gas or wood fireplace fireplaces. They're a perfect choice for new homes and renovations where chimney breasts have been removed. They also don't produce soot or ash, there are no problems with maintenance also.
Designs and styles
Bio ethanol fireplaces are available in a variety of styles and designs. Some bio ethanol fireplaces feature an old-fashioned wood-burning style and others sport modern and sleek designs. No matter what style the fireplaces all have the same benefits: real flame ambience without smoke or toxic gases.
Ethanol fireplaces can be freestanding or wall mounted. Freestanding models can be moved around a room to meet your needs. Wall-mounted models, on other hand, are anchored to the wall and may require special mounting equipment. They also have to meet certain clearance distances from flammable substances.
The fire itself comes from the burner pan, which is located on the bottom of the fireplace. The fuel is poured into the pan and then the fire is then lit with a long lighter. The process takes about 15 minutes for the fire to reach its maximum flame potential. Once the flames have been established, it's time to sit back, relax and enjoy the warm ambience of your home.
Certain ethanol fireplaces have adjustable temperature settings. This allows you to customize the amount of heat that your fireplace produces, which can be beneficial if you wish to provide more warmth than just ambiance.
Another advantage of ethanol fireplaces is that they do not require any chimney or flue. This makes them an excellent alternative for older homes or newer homes without chimney breasts or traditional fireplaces. In addition, a bio-ethanol fireplace doesn't produce gas or ash which could be harmful for those suffering from respiratory issues.
Bio ethanol fireplaces are also simple to install inside your home. The exact time to install them will depend on the type of fireplace you choose. However, the majority of models can be installed quickly. You can opt for a portable freestanding fireplace that can be taken with you in the event that you decide to move. This is a great option for living arrangements that are temporary. It is important to consider the installation ease when buying a fireplace.
No flu
The biggest advantage of bio ethanol over traditional wood or natural gas electric fires is that they do not require a chimney for operation. There is no risk of a chimney fire caused by tar buildup or blockage.
Bio-ethanol fireplaces don't create numerous particles that could affect the air. This is beneficial for people suffering from allergies or asthma. The fire doesn't produce smoke, so it does not create a bad odor in the room.
As opposed to a wood fireplace-burning fireplace bioethanol fires don't lose a lot of heat up the chimney, which means it can produce an incredible amount of heat for its size. This means you can keep your furniture near the fire without having to worry about catching a flame, which could be dangerous for any valuables.
There are several designs available for a bioethanol freestanding fireplace. You can go for an elegant and contemporary look by installing it on the wall, or you can get one that is recessed to blend in with the design of your room.
Another thing to think about is whether you would prefer a manual or an automatic burner. A manual burner requires you to ignite the fuel from the reservoir. An automatic burner will automatically light your fire once the tank is empty.
It is important that you allow the flames to fully burn out and wait until the flame cools down before refilling. If you don't, the ethanol may evaporate and you will have to start from scratch.
Most manufacturers recommend waiting at least 45 minutes before refilling your fire. This gives you enough time to eliminate the flames and then remove any flammable material from the fire. Additionally, it is recommended to store any leftover ethanol fuel somewhere out of reach of pets and children, to avoid any accidents from occurring.
Easy maintenance
Ethanol fireplaces operate by pouring bio ethanol fuel into the burner and lighting it. The flame and heat produced by the burning fuel can be controlled using the slider. (Not all designs come with this feature). By altering the amount of oxygen is fed to the fire you can alter the speed at which the fuel is burned and how high the flame burns.
The soot produced by the burning of fuel is easily removed using a the help of a soft clean cloth. The only other maintenance is to keep the burner full of the correct fuel and to ensure it is kept away from any dangerous materials or objects.
Another benefit of bioethanol fires is that you can put them almost anywhere, without needing to worry about building regulations or chimneys. This allows you to enjoy a vast amount of flexibility when it comes to designing your home and also where you can enjoy the warmth and ambiance of your new fireplace. You can even opt for a freestanding fireplace (click through the next post) that can be moved.
Wall-mounted bio ethanol fireplaces can be fitted into your wall with ease, and some models can be rotated by 180 degrees so you can focus the heat and flame into the desired area of your room. You can even mount an electronic remote control on certain designs to have full control from the comfort of your sofa.
For maximum versatility, many of the 'plug and play' wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces have brackets that let you connect them to a flat or sloping ceiling. This allows you to place the fireplace wherever you like it, and be in a position to turn it off or on and alter the flame's height, and adjust the temperature using the remote control.
When you're not using your tabletop fireplace with ethanol, be sure to turn it off and keep it clear from any flammable objects or materials. Don't pour any more fuel into the burner until the burner is at temperatures that are at or near the level of ambient temperature. Be careful when handling it as it's extremely hot.
