About this bioethanol burner

EcoSmart Fire XL1200 Bioethanol Burner

The longest burner in the XL Series. Built for the biggest rooms.
The XL1200 holds ten litres of bioethanol fuel. One fill gives you an elongated flame that runs the full 1200mm and burns for nine to fourteen hours. No flue. No chimney. No vent.

At this length, the flame stops being a feature and becomes architecture. The XL1200 is made for hotel lobbies and lounges, restaurant and bar walls, spa and wellness centres, corporate reception areas. It works in large residential spaces too — a full-width feature wall, a long outdoor entertaining area. The body is Grade 304 stainless steel, so it sits comfortably with almost any material you build around it. Indoors, the XL1200 Top Tray is a required part of the installation. Not an optional extra.

Be honest about sizing. In most houses, 1200mm of flame is too much burner. The XL900 fits wide media walls; the XL700 suits most living rooms. But for commercial spaces, hospitality or a room built around a long wall, this is the one. Nothing else in the series makes a statement at this scale.

Everything you need is in the box: a 5L jerry can with a bottle adaptor for refuelling, a lighting rod, a fire lighter and XL baffles to regulate the flame. The XL1200 is OMNI-Test listed to UL 1370 and certified by BSI to EN 16647.

Good to know: ambience first, heating second — real flame atmosphere without the building work

Flexible living

  • Portable and easy to reposition
  • Ready to use straight out of the box
  • No installation costs or engineer visits
  • Ideal where gas or a chimney isn't an option

Perfect for: flats, listed buildings and gardens — anywhere a fixed fire isn't practical

Care & Safety for EcoSmart XL1200 Bioethanol Burners

Looking after your XL1200 Bioethanol Burner

Light the burner with the fire lighter through the lighting rod, and use the same rod to adjust the slider and put the flame out. Never lean over the burner to do it. Slot the XL baffles in to regulate and steady the flame; take them out for the fullest flame. Outdoors, the burner is ready as it comes. Indoors, fit the XL1200 Top Tray before operating: it protects against heat transference and catches accidental spillage.

Fuel safety

Fill only through the dedicated filling point, using the 5L jerry can and bottle adaptor. Safety markings and volume guides show the maximum fill line. Let the burner cool fully before you refill. Use bioethanol fuel only — we recommend e-NRG.

EcoSmart XL1200 Frequently asked questions

What is an XL1200 bioethanol burner?

A bioethanol burner (some people write it "bio ethanol burner") is a burner that runs on bioethanol fuel instead of wood or gas. You fill it, light it and get a real flame. No flue, chimney or fixed installation. The XL1200 is the longest bioethanol burner in the XL Series, with a 10L capacity and a 1200mm flame.

What's the difference between a bioethanol burner and a bioethanol fireplace?

A fireplace is the whole unit: enclosure, surround and burner. An ethanol fireplace burner like the XL1200 is the engine inside. Buy the burner when you're building your own setting or fitting a zero-clearance Flex firebox insert.

Can I use the XL1200 ethanol burner indoors?

Yes. The XL1200 is rated for indoor and outdoor use. Indoors, you must fit the XL1200 Top Tray before operating it, and your room needs to be at least 115m³.

How long does the XL1200 burn on one fill?

Nine to fourteen hours from the full 10L. It consumes fuel at 0.87 litres per hour, and fitting the XL baffles stretches the burn towards the top of that range.

How much heat does the XL1200 produce?

4kW, or 15,290 BTU/h. On average it heats around 65m², so it suits large open-plan and commercial spaces rather than replacing central heating.

Can I use the XL1200 as a bioethanol burner insert in my own design?

Yes. That's what it's built for. Feature walls, hotel lobbies, restaurant fit-outs, long benches. Check the physical model dimensions against your cut-out before installation, and fit the Top Tray for any indoor build.

Does the XL1200 need a chimney, flue or vent?

No. Nothing but the burner and the fuel. That's what makes it a design tool: it goes where a chimney never could.

What fuel does the XL1200 use?

Bioethanol fuel. We recommend e-NRG. The included 5L jerry can and bottle adaptor make refuelling straightforward.

Is the XL1200 suitable for commercial spaces?

Yes. It's the most commercial burner in the series. The manufacturer use cases are hotel lobbies and lounges, restaurant and bar features, spa and wellness centres and corporate reception areas. Minimum room size applies indoors: 115m³.

What's the difference between the XL1200 and the XL900?

Length and capacity. Same series, same build quality. The XL900 is 908mm with a 9L tank and suits wide media walls and most commercial builds. The XL1200 is 1200mm with a 10L tank — the longest flame in the series, for the biggest spaces.

Is the XL1200 an ethanol burner or a bioethanol burner?

Same thing. Bioethanol is the full name of the fuel. Ethanol burner is the shorthand EcoSmart themselves use for the range. One burner, two names.
