- In this video Pete Hillier a Director at EcoFires and Stoves www.ecofiresan... introduces Bio-ethanol fires.
Bio-ethanol fires are a different option for those seeking an open fire in their home.
In most cases you do not need a chimney and one of the best things about bioethanol fires is that there are no dangerous particles and fumes produced, plus it's, eco-friendly as it's a fuel that's produced from fermented plants, such as sugar beet.
Also there is only a very slight smell of ethanol, which cannot be detected by 99% of people.
The product being demonstrated is made by Planika Fires. planikauk.com They are an American company and offer a top of the range product.
Pete demonstrates the fire using the remote control and explains how the fires work. He also demonstrates how to add the fuel and talks about relative costs.

That is cool fireplace
Could you please tell me the thermal calories of the bio aithanol fireplace if there are air ducts and can be connected to the boiler for heating water. Thanks for your video and information. Indeed
How is the light that comes from it? Is it even noticeable ?? I’m building a house in Japan and am looking at options as in my town we cannot have real fire or chimneys/ wood burners etc. any ideas or tips are much appreciated ❤🎉
Because it’s not pure ethanol that’s why you can see this flame
Is it possible to put fake logs in an ethanol fireplace. Thank you.
Yes, terra flame
How can it be installed? Do you need a fake chimmny or anytbign to let the heat out or just a wholw in the wall and stick it in? Can it be under a tv wuth little space in between?
Well explained bro
Can you tell me, is the fire on the TV a screensaver? Could you tell me the name of it and where I can get it?
if your tv lets you play youtube there's a lot of long running videos like this :)
Thank you for your vidéo.
Does it smell alcohol or not?
No
Will that heat a room 16x13
It largerly depends on the length of the fireline. We're using the standard FLA and it's good for the living room 25 metre square
This is very interesting
Please don't consider buying one, do your research it is a liquid fuel like any other and extremely dangerous. This guy is a salesman nothing else.
@@petermartinaitis8166 You try and tell me, This fuel is biofuels, so it doesn't smell good when you burn it's good.
@@petermartinaitis8166 As far as i know this is most advanced bio fuel chimney. So i suggest you to do the research again.
Can ethanol spirits be used on inserts?
Yes, you can use even Vodka, and you gona have good smell too 😊
Hi,
Is it OK to have a TV above the fire?
That thingy directly above the ethanol fireplace that is showing a log fire is a TV.
Is there a minimum distance from TV to fire?
this video wont load ?
Judging by your T shirt, you are a HETAS certified engineer? Can I ask why you are using the term " clean burning"? In the event of incomplete combustion, isn't it possible your appliances could produce carbon monoxide and other pollutants? Just asking?
No , the combustible it’s made similar with alcohol
Can you recommend a high quality Brand of Bioethanol fuel , as there are lots of low quality ones on the market. Thanks
So they're a visual fireplace not designed to heat a house
They do heat effectively as well, it's just that if you purely want heat it isn't the cheapest method, you're buying it for the heat and aesthetics. Particularly if you can't have a wood burner.
seems like a lot of work
I read somewhere that it emits CO2?
All fires do. I’ve read that these actually emit less.
Based on the kind of bioethanol you get, it's about the same as you would get with a candle.
I emit CO2
I saw the video on Planika's YT channel bout this net-zero technology: th-cam.com/video/QsBCYYbp7I8/w-d-xo.html
So does a wood burner or coal fire, the difference is that these CANNOT emit carbon monoxide. It is best to make sure the room is well ventilated whoever you have a real flame fire.
I'm loving this but there pretty pricey. Definitely high end.
Not all expensive, if you're not after a huge one; look on Wayfair.
So it doesn't provide much heat? I'm pretty sure everybody with the fireplace gets one for the heat. And honestly that flame is kind of weak.
Honestly a lot of people just want something nice to look at. If they want to actually heat a room or the house then wood is the way to go, and a duct system would be a good upgrade.
@@caedmonv55 honestly that's not true at all in the winter people turn their fireplaces on for the heat. The aesthetic is just a plus.
I can tell you I do not need the extra heat. If you live in a big city, you most likely live in a building with heat. I have bought and sold houses, and always acquired fireplaces or fire pits. Never for the extra heat. My only reason has been only aesthetics
The only reason you have it is for heat I have one and you do get a descent amount of heat the real flame is also a bonus no one is buying them for looks only as they cost too much to run if you are looking to buy one the ones that give of a decent heat are the replica fire place fires 🔥 that’s what you want and they look real.
Do research on ethanol I understand what you see in the video but I promise you ethanol burns hotter than any flame you know and you can’t see it
Soooooooo expensive!!!!
The company are good at replying to queries NOT !!
It looks rubbish
