Many of these fireplaces can be installed indoor, and they offer easy installation. Your bio ethanol fireplace along with your furniture is great for creating an inviting and cozy spot for your family to gather.

Ethanol Fireplaces: Are They Really Warm?

Many people look at these modern fireplaces and assume they are only for show. This is absolutely not true. They kick off a significant amount of heat, so while one small one will not heat a whole house, it could keep the room you are occupying quite comfortable.

If you have a few to light, you will be even warmer. For example, our Orlando Bio Ethanol Fireplace is one of the medium-sized freestanding varieties.

Although it weighs nearly 100 pounds, its wheel base allows it to easily be moved where you need it. The burner holds 50oz of fuel, and will provide a heat capacity of 9,553 BTUs for approximately six hours.

Running on Bio Ethanol Fuel

Unlike traditional or other gas fireplaces, ethanol fireplaces are safe to use. They use bioethanol fuel that are eco friendly and safe to use.

Traditional fireplaces as well as their byproducts of fuel combustion such as propane, carbon dioxide, natural gas, and other kinds of fossil fuels are dangerous to your health. They expose to you to chemicals, which could cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive problems.

If you are not familiar with ethanol fireplaces then you might be wondering how it is safe to have a fire in a home without it being vented to release toxins outside. So are ethanol fireplaces safe? Yes, they are.

While some worries about traditional fuels may be justified, bioethanol fireplaces are absolutely safe when used properly. Studies have repeatedly demonstrated that the impact of ethanol combustion on air quality is far less than that of wood or traditional fireplaces.

The explanation for this is simple: ethanol does not combust like other fuels in a fireplace. There are no toxins to release. There is no smoke either. This type of fireplace burns bio ethanol fuel.

This is an odorless, clean fuel source that allows you to enjoy a fire anywhere. This is good news for you and the environment.

Is a Bio Ethanol Fireplace Fuel Difficult to Operate? How Does an Ethanol Fireplace Work?

Enjoying a cozy fire was never achieved so easily. All you have to do is pour the fuel in the burner and ignite. The heat is instant and remains at a consistent temperature.

If you need to leave the house to go get takeout or a coffee, you can simply extinguish the flame and light it back up when you get home. It should also be noted that the flame will provide you with a little needed light once the sun goes down and the house gets dark.

HELPFUL TIPS

If you only have one or a couple small fireplaces, the goal is to keep the room you are occupying warm. Closing the doors will help contain the heat in one area. If you have one of our tabletop ethanol fireplaces then you can easily move it into your bedroom with you.

You may even want to light that one a little before bed and put it in your room with the door closed, so it will be warm in there when you are ready to sleep. Always keep plenty of fuel on-hand, so you have it available when you need it the most.

It is considerably easy to fill up your ethanol fireplace. You only need to pour ethanol into the stainless steel burner – if that’s what you choose to get. Ignite the fuel inside with a lighting device and you have clean-burning fires.

The same safety instructions apply to an outdoor ethanol fireplace even if it’s a wall mounted ethanol fireplace, but in a confined location, it’s even more crucial to make sure you’re doing everything right. 

As you can see, using a bioethanol fireplace isn’t all that difficult. You just need to follow the basic safety guidelines.

All fireplace purchases includes a complete guide as well as instructions for safety, operation, and maintenance. This applies to all fireplaces including a bio ethanol fireplace insert for your existing fireplace, freestanding ethanol fireplace, wall mounted ethanol burners, and fire table.
