About this bioethanol burner

EcoSmart Fire XL900 Bioethanol Burner

One of the most popular burners in the XL Series. Easy to see why.

The XL900 holds nine litres of bioethanol fuel. One fill gives you an elongated flame that runs the full 908mm and burns for eight to thirteen hours. No flue. No chimney. No gas line.

The parallel lines of the burner suit contemporary spaces. Set it into bespoke cabinetry or a media unit. Run it along a stone bench or a floating timber feature. It works in open-plan living rooms, outdoor entertaining spaces and commercial hospitality fit-outs. The body is Grade 304 stainless steel, so it sits comfortably with almost any material you build around it. Indoors, the XL900 Top Tray is a required part of the installation. Not an optional extra.

Sizing is simple. The XL900 suits wide builds — big media walls, full-width hearths, hospitality spaces. For most living rooms, the XL700 does the job at 700mm. Need more? The XL1200 runs to 1200mm. Building for a crowd or a commercial space? Start here. The 900 is the size the design world keeps coming back to.

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 XL900 is OMNI-Test listed to UL 1370 and certified by BSI to EN 16647.

Care & Safety for EcoSmart XL900 Bioethanol Burners

Looking after your XL900 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 XL900 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 XL900 Frequently asked questions

What is an XL900 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 XL900 is a bioethanol burner with a 9L capacity and a 908mm 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 XL900 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 XL900 ethanol burner indoors?

Yes. The XL900 is rated for indoor and outdoor use. Indoors, you must fit the XL900 Top Tray before operating it, and your room needs to be at least 110m³.

How long does the XL900 burn on one fill?

Eight to thirteen hours from the full 9L. It consumes fuel at 0.8 litres per hour, and fitting the XL baffles stretches the burn towards the top of that range.

How much heat does the XL900 produce?

4kW, or 15,000 BTU/h. On average it heats around 60m², so it suits open-plan spaces and larger rooms rather than replacing central heating.

Can I use the XL900 as a bioethanol burner insert in my own design?

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

Does the XL900 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 XL900 use?

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

Is the XL900 suitable for commercial spaces?

Yes. The use cases in the manufacturer data include commercial hospitality settings, and the 908mm flame reads well across a bar, restaurant or hotel space. Minimum room size applies indoors: 110m³.

What's the difference between the XL900, XL700 and XL1200?

Length and capacity. Same series, same build quality. The XL700 is 700mm with a 7L tank and suits most living rooms. The XL900 is 908mm with a 9L tank for wide media walls and commercial spaces. The XL1200 runs 1200mm with a 10L tank for the biggest builds.

Is the XL900 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.
