Why You Should Concentrate On Enhancing Bio-Ethanol Fires

Bio-Ethanol Fires

In contrast to traditional fireplaces that burn wood, bio-ethanol fires can be set up anywhere without the need for flues. They don't emit any harmful gases smoke, ash or smoke.

They are powered by sustainable 'bio fuel', which is made from crops specifically cultivated for the purpose of being used in these types of fires. Bio-ethanol is a method of reducing carbon emissions are reduced as a result of switching fossil fuels to renewable energy sources.

Safety Tips

Ethanol fireplaces are an excellent option for those who want to add real flame warmth to their home without having to use an old-fashioned log-burning stove or chimney. Bioethanol is a sustainable and green alternative to wood and gas. There are a few safety concerns to be aware of. However with a little care and understanding, these risks can be minimised.

As with any type of fire, it is important to follow the guidelines of the manufacturer for lighting and refuelling your bio-ethanol fireplace. This includes the requirements for clearance distances to nearby material that is combustible and the proper use of fire extinguishing tools.

Bioethanol is flammable, and it is not recommended for consumption by pets or children. When using the fireplace, keep a safe distance of at least one metre and ensure that any clothing or accessories are not too close to it.

In the event that any ethanol liquid does come into contact with your skin or eyes, wash immediately. If it is inhaled, seek medical attention right away as it can cause serious health conditions.

Always make sure to use the ethanol heater only with the approved 'e-NRG liquid ethanol. Other fuels, like gels, can impact the safe operation of the burner, and could invalidate the warranty.

Another important point is to not move the bio-ethanol fireplace while it is still lit. This could lead to ethanol spilling and ignite in the tank, posing an fire risk. Additionally, it is advised to wait until the fire has cooled completely before refilling.

It is important to keep the flame away from flammable items, such as curtains and furniture. It is also recommended to place the fireplace in a room that has adequate ventilation, in order to keep smoke from building up and to keep the air fresh. This will help ensure the safety of your family, guests and pets. It is also recommended to keep an extinguisher for fires of class B in your home, in case any accidents happen.

Fuel

A special fuel is required to run ethanol fires. The liquid, also known as ecoethanol or bio-ethanol, is poured in the burner and then ignited to produce a flame. The flame heats the room, generating warm air and adding ambiance to your home.

The fuel is made of renewable sources such as sugarcane or corn. This makes it an eco friendly alternative to fossil fuels like coal and oil. It also uses less chemicals than other types of fuel and is therefore an environmentally friendly choice.

Contrary to wood burning fires bio-ethanol fireplaces produce very little ash and don't smoke when they burn. This makes them more convenient to use and does not require a chimney or a flue. Furthermore, bio-ethanol fires are more adaptable and do not need to be enclosed by a secure distance, as you would with a wood or gas burning fire.

You can select between gel or liquid bioethanol depending on the type of appliance you have and the type of burner. The manual that came with your fire should tell you what fuel to use and how to refill it. Store extra fuel in a safe location away from flames and children or pets.

Bioethanol, although an environmentally friendly alternative to other fuels nevertheless emits carbon dioxide upon combustion. In addition, some critics claim that crops grown for the purpose of producing fuel for ethanol divert resources away from food production. Although these concerns are valid, the benefits of using a bio-ethanol fire outweigh these concerns.

Before refilling a bio-ethanol fuel it is essential to inspect the burner for signs of wear or damage. Check that the flame opening is free of obstructions and free of debris or construction materials. The lid can be opened on the burner and pour fuel into it using a funnel once you are satisfied that the burner has been inspected. When refilling, be sure not to exceed the maximum "max line" indicated on the burner's surface.

A typical fill of ethanol lasts from one to 10 hours, dependent on the size of the burner as well as the flame. Some ethanol burners have automatic refill features that shut off the flame and automatically refill the tank when required and save time.

Burner

Freestanding bio ethanol fires are perfect to create a cozy space without the need for a chimney or flue. They can also be extremely versatile, with some models able to be mounted on a wall, while others are designed as zero-clearance fireplace inserts that can be inserted into non-combustible enclosures in the same way that gas fireplaces are. This allows a custom built in bioethanol fireplace-in, fully insulated fire to be created within various indoor or outdoor areas, from the hearth of a modern living room to an outdoor area for entertaining.

The key to the success of a bio ethanol fire is the burner, that is designed to efficiently burn ethyl alcohol or 'bio-fuel'. This liquid fuel is derived from plant byproducts and crops such as corn, sugarcane potatoes, rapeseed, and more recently fruit, like pomegranates, grapes and bananas. The liquid fuel is refined, distilled and packaged.

As the fuel burns it evaporates and produces fake flames that replicate the heat generated by real gas or wood fireplaces. The flame is extremely efficient and can provide more than enough heating for a typical home, which means you can enjoy an open flame with no smoke or harmful emissions.

Bio ethanol can be easily refueled with a fuel bottle, unlike a gas fireplace. However, there is an element of dexterity needed when refilling a bio-fire since the bottles are flammable, therefore it is essential to be aware and ensure that they are cool before touching.
