Common Q&A's

Do they heat?

EcoSmart Fire’s indoor ethanol fireplaces are ventless, meaning all the heat stays in the room rather than escaping up a flue or chimney like it would with a traditional wood-burning fireplace. Increased heat retention also means increased fuel efficiency. EcoSmart Fire’s collection of ethanol fireplaces offer a heat output ranging from 5,000 BTU (15m2) - 20,000 BTU’s (65m2).

Are they easy to install?

EcoSmart Fires are designed to be easily installed and operated. Without the need for a flue or pipe connection, EcoSmart Fires are extremely flexible and can be incorporated at any stage of your interior decorating, renovating or building works. For detailed specifications please contact your local distributor.

Why use an ethanol fireplace?

An ethanol fireplace is an eco-friendly and cost-effective alternative to gas fireplaces and wood burning fireplaces. Enjoy the warmth and aesthetic benefits of a traditional fireplace without the smoke, soot or ash in your home. Unlike gas fireplaces or traditional wood burning fireplaces, EcoSmart Fire’s ethanol
fireplace inserts require no venting, no gas line, no electricity - eliminating the need and cost of three sub contractors.

  • Produces a vibrant orange flame
  • Efficiency over 90%
  • Clean-burning. No smoke, no ash
  • No gas, no electricity, no flue
  • Quick and easy installation

How long will the fuel burn?

This is dependent on the burner and how it’s used, as mentioned, you are burning the vapour that evaporates from the liquid so the size of the mouth of the burner will affect this greatly. A larger more open mouth means more surface area for the ethanol fuel to evaporate from. This is also why most of our burners* will have some type of baffle or sliding baffle to increase burner efficiency; a smaller surface area for fuel to evaporate from means slower evaporation, lower heat output and better fuel efficiency. *Excluding AB3 and VB2 burners.

How do they work?

EcoSmart Ethanol Burners create a flame by burning the vapour that evaporates off of the bioethanol liquid fuel. The fuel is filled through a dedicated filling point where it flows into the fuel reservoir, which is where it is both stored and burned from; this can be seen when you open the lid on the burner.

Do they need power or a flue/chimney?

Ethanol fires do not require a chimney, vent, gas line, or electricity and can be installed virtually anywhere - indoors or outdoors. This means they do not require a specialised installer and can be moved from one area to another with relative ease.

How do I fill them?

With EcoSmart Fire’s proprietary tools and procedures, filling your ethanol fireplace with e-NRG bioethanol fuel is fast and easy.

  • Step 1 - Remove the bottle nozzle cap and carefully insert into the filling point.
  • Step 2 - Push and hold the green button.The nozzle will automatically stop filling once the reservoir is full.
  • Step 3 - Replace the nozzle cap. To turn the burner off simply close the lid, this will starve the flame of oxygen and extinguish it.
