Bio-Ethanol Fires Contrary to traditional wood burning fireplaces, bio-ethanol fires can be placed anywhere without the necessity of flues. They don't create smoke, ash or dangerous gasses. These fires run on bio-fuel, a sustainable source of energy made from crops that are specially cultivated to be used in this type of fire. Using bio-ethanol reduces carbon emissions by substituting fossil fuel for renewable energy sources. Safety Tips Ethanol fireplaces are a great option for those who want to bring real flame warmth to their home without the need to use an old-fashioned log-burning stove or chimney. They are powered by bioethanol, a fuel, which is an eco-friendly and renewable alternative to wood and gas. There are some safety issues to be aware of.

Although these concerns are valid, the advantages of using a bioethanol fire outweigh these issues. Before refueling a bio-ethanol fire it is essential to examine the burner for signs of damage or wear.

Some models can be placed on a wall while others are designed to be fireplace inserts with zero clearance which can be installed in non-combustible enclosures, just like a gas fire. This allows for an entirely constructed, insulated fire to be placed in a variety indoor or outdoor spaces. The most important element to the success of a bioethanol fire is the burner which is designed to efficiently burn ethyl alcohol, also known as 'bio-fuel'. The liquid fuel is made from plant byproducts as well as crops including sugarcane, corn, potatoes, rapeseed, and more recently fruits, like pomegranates, grapes and bananas. The liquid fuel is then separated, distilled, and then packaged. When the fuel is burned, it vaporizes and creates an imitation flame that resembles the warmth produced by real gas or wood fireplaces. The flame is extremely efficient and provides enough heat to warm the average home. Bioethanol can be easily refueled with a fuel bottle, unlike a gas fireplace.
