You can also select between manual and automatic bio ethanol burning devices. An automatic burner keeps the fuel at a safe distance from the flames, meaning it will burn longer without the risk of burning out or overheating. Manual burners work exactly like fireplaces, but you'll need matches or lighters in order to ignite the flames.

When you choose a burner to use in your bio-ethanol fireplace it's important to keep in mind that the burner needs to be covered by non-combustible material to ensure that nothing comes into contact with the burning fuel. If you do not cover the burner, the flame could get too hot and cause damage to the fireplace.

Most manufacturers recommend that you leave at minimum 45 minutes between refilling your fire so that you have enough time to extinguish the flames, and make sure that all flammable materials are away from the fire. In addition, it's recommended to store any leftover fuel containing ethanol away from the reach of pets and children, to avoid any accidents from happening.

Easy maintenance

Ethanol fireplaces work by pouring bio-ethanol fuel into the burner before lighting it. The flame and heat produced by the burning fuel can be controlled by an adjustable slider. (Not all designs have this feature). By altering the amount of oxygen is supplied to the fire you can change how quickly the fuel burns, and how high the flame burns.
