The automated burner keeps the fuel from the flames so that it will burn for longer without the risk of overheating or consuming. Manual burners function the same as fireplaces, but you will need matches or lighters to light the flames.

It's important to remember when selecting a bioethanol burner, the burner must be covered with non-combustible materials. This will ensure that nothing touches the burning fuel. If you don't cover your burner, it could cause the fire to overheat. This can damage the fireplace.

No flu

The biggest advantage of bioethanol over traditional wood or natural gas fires is the fact that they don't require a chimney to function. There is no danger of a chimney fire that is caused by tar accumulation or a blockage.

A bio-ethanol fireplace also does not produce many particles that could harm the air, which is good news for those who suffer from allergies or asthma. The fire doesn't produce smoke, therefore it won't cause bad odor in the room.

In contrast to a fireplace that burns wood fireplace, bioethanol electric fires don't lose heat through the chimney, which means it produces a huge amount of heat for its size.

After you've used your bio ethanol fireplace, it is important to let the flames burn out completely and wait until the fireplace has cooled before refueling. If you don't do this, the ethanol may evaporate and you'll need to start from scratch.

The majority of manufacturers advise that you allow at least 45 minutes between refilling your fire, so that you have enough time to safely put out the flames, and make sure that all flammable materials are away from the fire. Additionally, it is recommended to store any remaining ethanol fuel somewhere out of reach of children and pets to prevent any accidents from happening.

Ease of maintenance

The bioethanol fuel is put into the burner and then lit. As the fuel burns, it generates an ember and heat that can be controlled with the slider (not all designs include this feature). By altering how much oxygen is pumped into the fire, you can alter the speed at which the fuel burns and also how high the flame burns.

As the fuel burns, it produces a small amount of soot, but this can be easily cleaned by wiping the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other maintenance required is keeping the burner filled with the correct fuel and ensuring that it is kept away from any flammable items or equipment.

Wall-mounted bio ethanol fireplaces can be incorporated into walls with ease, and some models can be turned 180 degrees, allowing you to move the flame and heat to the desired space of your room. You can even mount remote controls on some of the models to control the entire thing from the comfort of your sofa.

Many bioethanol fireplaces that are mounted on walls are fitted with brackets that allow them to be affixed to an unfinished ceiling or a an inclined one. This lets you place the fireplace wherever you like it while being able to turn it on or off and adjust the flame's height, and adjust the temperature using the remote control.
