Energy efficiency

In general, bio-ethanol fireplaces tend to be less expensive to run than traditional ones. They are also more efficient in energy use, using up less energy and producing less heat. They are available in a variety of styles, from the traditional open fire stoves to modern bioethanol burners with glass frontages. They can be wall-mounted or free standing and can be used in any room. They can also be moved between homes, which makes them ideal for renovations and new builds in which chimney breasts have been removed.

They are very safe to use, however there are some things to be aware of. First, don't add fuel to the bioethanol fire that is in use while it's still burning. If you attempt to do this, it may cause the flames to spread and potentially ignite nearby flammable materials. It is also recommended to avoid touching the burner or its nozzle while it's operating.

These fires can also be employed in areas where chimneys are prohibited.

Bioethanol fuel is a renewable energy source is made up of the combination of plant sugars and yeast with water. It's a more environmentally friendly alternative to fossil fuels such as coal or petroleum, and it utilizes modern biological processes instead of geological ones. The process also produces more oxygen and less carbon dioxide than fossil fuels, which means it's more beneficial for the environment. Biofuel can be produced from organic and non-organic sources but it's more common to use agricultural waste to make bioethanol.

Safety

Bioethanol fireplaces are an environmentally friendly and safe alternative to traditional gas and wood fires. They create real flames, but burn clean with no smoke or particulates, and emit only water vapour and a tiny amount of carbon dioxide. This is the same CO2 that was absorbed by the plants used to produce the fuel and it causes less harm to the environment.

When using a bio fireplace, it is essential to follow all manufacturer guidelines for proper use and safety precautions. For example it is not recommended to add fuel to a burning fire unless it has been completely snuffed out. Bioethanol may splash or spill, and cause a fireball, which could ignite nearby flammable items.

It is also advisable to keep flammable items and children away from the flame, since even a small breeze could send the fuel into flames. Place the fuel in a location that is safe and out of reach of pets or children. If you have any questions or concerns it is best to contact the manufacturer.
