About this bioethanol burner

EcoSmart Fire XL700 Bioethanol Burner

The burner behind the Grate 36. And a design tool in its own right.
The XL700 holds seven litres of bioethanol fuel. One fill gives you an elongated flame that runs the full 700mm and burns for nine to twelve hours. No flue. No chimney. No gas line.

EcoSmart build the Grate 36 fireplace grate around this burner. It's the same ethanol burner inside many of their zero-clearance Flex firebox inserts. But it works on its own terms too: set it into bespoke cabinetry, a floating timber shelf or a stone bench, indoors or out. The body is Grade 304 stainless steel, so it sits comfortably with almost any material you build around it. Indoors, the XL700 Top Tray is a required part of the installation. Not an optional extra.

Sizing is simple. The XL700 suits longer builds — a wide media wall, a full-width hearth, a commercial fit-out. For compact settings, the XL500 does the same job at 500mm. Replacing an old grate? Start here. The XL700 is the burner the Grate 36 was designed around.

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 XL700 is OMNI-Test listed to UL 1370 and certified by BSI to EN 16647.

Care & Safety for EcoSmart XL700 Bioethanol Burners

Looking after your XL700 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 XL700 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 XL700 Frequently asked questions

What is an XL700 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 XL700 is a bioethanol burner with a 7L capacity and a 700mm elongated 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 XL700 is the engine inside. Buy the burner when you're building your own setting, or when you're fitting a Flex firebox insert or the Grate 36.

Is the XL700 the burner inside the Grate 36?

Yes. EcoSmart build the Grate 36 fireplace grate around the XL700. It's the key component. The same burner sits inside many of their zero-clearance Flex firebox inserts too.

Can I use the XL700 ethanol burner indoors?

Yes. The XL700 is rated for indoor and outdoor use. Indoors, you must fit the XL700 Top Tray before operating it, and your room needs to be at least 90m³.

How long does the XL700 burn on one fill?

Nine to twelve hours from the full 7L. It consumes fuel at 0.7 litres per hour, and fitting the XL baffles stretches the burn towards the top of that range.

How much heat does the XL700 produce?

4kW, or 13,650 BTU/h. On average it heats around 50m², so it takes the chill off a large living room rather than replacing central heating.

Can I use the XL700 as a bioethanol burner insert in my own design?

Yes. That's what it's built for. Cabinetry, media units, stone benches, pillars. Check the physical model dimensions against your cut-out before installation, and fit the Top Tray for any indoor build.

Does the XL700 need a chimney, flue or electricity?

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 XL700 use?

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

What's the difference between the XL700 and the XL500?

Length and capacity. Both are linear bioethanol burners with the same build quality. The XL500 is 500mm with a 5L tank and suits compact media units. The XL700 is 700mm with a 7L tank, more heat and a bigger room rating — and it's the burner the Grate 36 takes.

Is the XL700 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.
