Advantages
of using bioethanol fireplace over wood burning and gas
fireplaces:
-
No
need for a chimney. Since the Ethanol burns largely
into steam you will not need a chimney.
-
Odor less: The burning process of the ethanol leaves
no harmful scent unlike gas and wood.
-
No smoke: unlike wood burning chimneys, the modern
bioethanol fireplace does not emit smoke while being
operated.
-
Clean: since you don’t use wood, you will not make a
mess or have black stains and ash from the burning
wood.
-
Practical: You can
move it from one room to the other since
installation is very simple. No need for chimney or
gas pipes in the wall.
-
Easy to use Very easy to use, all you have to do is
fill up the tank and light the fire.
-
Safe: Bioethanol is a
clean type of energy which is safe. The burners are
all certified by safety regulations and are made in
either France or Germany. The fireplace is also
equipped with a glass fire wall for protection. The
normal gas fireplaces can be dangerous if there was
a leakage in the pipes, but bioethanol is very safe
and can be left in the tank without having any
negative effects.
-
Flame control: By adjusting the flap you can control
the strength of the fire.
-
Flexible: Since there
is no need for chimney or gas piping you can install
the burner almost any were you want. E.g. on a
table.
-
Cost effective: Running cost of using the bioethanol
fireplace is economical.
E.g.
To run a wood burning fire place for one winter you will
need around 1 ton of wood. The market cost for 1 ton of
wood is around 250-300 JD's.
If you would use the bioethanol fireplace 3 hours a day
5 times a week for 4 months of winter which is 240 hours
it would cost you only 160-190 JD's depending on your
burner capacity and the flap setting you use.
You will also save money because you will not need to
build a chimney.
*This cost analysis applies to French models that have
burner models: 709,710,711,706,707 installed in them,
plus all the German models.
*For burner Model 701,702 70-80cm Length (from the
French manufacturer) since the flame length is almost
double the length of the flame in the above models,
running cost will be around 300 JD for the upper
calculated period. 4 months 240 hrs.
