Are bio ethanol fireplaces any good?
Yes, bioethanol fires produce real-burning flames that give off plenty of heat, making them a fantastic, like-for-like alternative to traditional gas or log-burning fire for heating homes and gardens.
Is Bio ethanol clean burning?
Bioethanol is pure alcohol. The combustion of bioethanol is clean which makes it an efficient and effective source of heat because there is no soot, ash or harmful emissions that need to be extracted through a flue – meaning all the heat stays in your room.
Do bio ethanol fire pits give off heat?
The answer is yes! Bioethanol fires provide just as much warmth as traditional fuel sources, but they are an eco-friendly option that emits no harmful fumes or smoke. Be careful with glass objects because bioethanol flames can reach up to 650 degrees Fahrenheit!
How much heat do you get from a bio ethanol fireplaces produce?
around three kilowatt-hours
In technical terms, bioethanol fireplaces produce around three kilowatt-hours (kWh) of heat when the fuel box is fully open. To give you an idea of how hot this is, the average electric fire will generate around 2kWh of heat.
Do bioethanol fires smell?
No, bio ethanol fuel burns clean and doesn’t produce any smoke, odors, ash, or soot. When you extinguish your fire, you might notice a faint smell, similar to when blowing out a candle.

Do ethanol fireplaces give off heat?
Ethanol fireplaces are very aesthetically pleasing, but they are also great at producing heat. There are many different models of burners which will have a larger or smaller flame, which will impact the heat output.
Do bioethanol fires produce carbon monoxide?
Ethanol does not contain any pollutants, carbon monoxide, and other impurities that wood, gas and other sources of fuel release when being burned.
Is ethanol safe to burn indoors?
Yes, ethanol biofuel fireplaces are safe to burn indoors. Reading through the scientific jargon, ethanol fireplaces do in fact produce C02 but this is a byproduct of ANY real fire.
How warm is a bio ethanol fire?
As a guide, you can assume the typical biofire will emit approximately 3kwh of heat, which is roughly equivalent to an electrical heater on a medium setting. One of the ways we prefer to explain the amount of heat our bioethanol fires give off is simply…
Do you need a chimney for a bio ethanol fire?
A bioethanol fire is a cleaner, safer, more eco-friendly way to enjoy a real fire in the home. The fuel doesn’t emit smoke or fumes, so you don’t need a chimney. Bioethanol fireplaces are simple to set up – just unpack it, fill it with bioethanol fuel, and enjoy a real flame within minutes.
