Frequently Asked Questions
How does a bioethanol fire work?
A bioethanol fire burns bioethanol fuel — a liquid alcohol derived from plant materials — in a burner tray or insert. The fuel combusts cleanly, producing a real flame, a small amount of heat, water vapour and CO2. Because there is no smoke or soot, no flue or chimney is required.
Are bioethanol fires safe to use outdoors?
Yes, bioethanol fires are safe for outdoor use when used correctly. Always place them on a stable, non-flammable surface, keep them away from flammable materials and never refuel while the fire is lit. Follow the manufacturer's safety instructions at all times.
How much heat does a bioethanol fire produce?
Bioethanol fires produce a moderate level of heat — typically between 1kW and 3kW depending on the model and burner size. They are best suited to creating a warm ambience on mild evenings rather than heating large open spaces.
What fuel do bioethanol fires use?
Bioethanol fires use bioethanol fuel, which is widely available online and in garden centres. Always use high-quality bioethanol fuel specifically designed for use in fires and burners. Never use other types of alcohol or flammable liquids.
Can I use a bioethanol fire under a gazebo or pergola?
Bioethanol fires can be used under covered outdoor structures such as gazebos and pergolas, provided there is adequate ventilation. Avoid using them in fully enclosed spaces without airflow. Always check the manufacturer's guidelines for minimum clearance distances from overhead structures.
What is the difference between a tabletop and a freestanding bioethanol fire?
Tabletop bioethanol fires are compact, portable units designed to sit on a table or surface — ideal for smaller patios and intimate settings. Freestanding bioethanol fires are larger, floor-standing models that make a bold design statement and are better suited to larger outdoor spaces or as a garden focal point.
