It is crucial to allow the flames to fully burn out and wait until the burner cools before refilling. Otherwise, the ethanol will evaporate and you'll have to start over.

Most manufacturers recommend that you leave at least 45 minutes between refilling your fire so that you have enough time to remove the flames and ensure that all materials that are flammable are kept away from the fire. Additionally, it is recommended to store any remaining ethanol fuel somewhere out of reach of children and pets to prevent any accidents from happening.

Maintenance is easy

Ethanol fireplaces work by pouring bio-ethanol fuel into the burner before lighting it. The heat and flame produced by the burning fuel can be controlled with an adjustable slider. (Not all models have this feature). By altering how much oxygen is pumped into the fire, you can change how quickly the fuel burns and also the intensity of the flame.

As the fuel burns it creates tiny amounts of soot, but this can be easily cleaned by wiping the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other thing to do is to ensure that the fireplace is filled with the correct fuel and ensuring that it's a safe distance away from any fire-prone objects or other equipment.

Many wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are equipped with brackets that allow them to be affixed to an unfinished ceiling or a sloped one. This allows you to place the fireplace wherever you want it while being in a position to turn the flame off or on and alter the flame's height, and set the temperature with the remote control.

When you're not using your fireplace with ethanol, be sure to turn it off and keep it away from any flammable objects or materials. Do not add any fuel into the burner until the burner has reached room temperature. Be cautious when handling it because it is very hot.
