All you have to do is ensure that the ceiling or wall is strong enough and follow the instructions for the model you have chosen.

If you choose an ethanol fireplace mounted on the wall, most are supplied with the hardware that allows them to be mounted like a flat-screen TV, or placed in the wall. You'll need to find the studs, and then install the brackets and extensions, but it will not take more than one hour for an expert to do this.

You can also pick between manual and automated bio ethanol burning devices. The automated burner keeps the fuel from the flames, so that it can burn for longer without the risk of overheating or consuming. Manual burners function similar to fireplaces, with the exception that you will need matches or lighters to ignite the flames.

When choosing a burner for your bio-ethanol fireplace it's important to keep in mind that the burner needs to be covered by non-combustible material to make sure that nothing comes into contact with the burning fuel. If you don't cover your burner properly, it could cause the fire to overheat. This can damage the fireplace.

It takes around 15 minutes for the flames to reach their maximum potential. Once the fire is lit, you can relax and enjoy your home's warm atmosphere.

After you've used your bio ethanol fireplace, it's important to let the flames burn out completely and to wait until the fireplace has cooled before refueling. If you don't do this, the ethanol might evaporate and you'll have to start again.

The majority of manufacturers suggest waiting at least 45 minutes before refilling your fire. This will allow you enough time to safely extinguish the flames, and to remove any flammable materials from the fire. Additionally, it is recommended to store any leftover fuel with ethanol out of reach of pets and children, to avoid any accidents from happening.

Easy maintenance

The bioethanol fuel is added to the burner and then lit. As the fuel burns, it produces the appearance of a flame and the heat can be controlled by the slider (not all designs include this feature). By altering the amount of oxygen is supplied to the fire you can alter how fast the fuel is burned and the intensity of the flame.

The soot that is produced by the burning of fuel can be easily removed with an easy clean cloth. The only other maintenance required is to ensure that the fireplace is properly fueled and making sure it is not too far from any flammable items or equipment.

This gives you great flexibility when designing your home and the location you wish to enjoy the warmth of your fireplace. You could even choose to have a free-standing fireplace that you can move from room to room.

Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are easy to install and some models let you rotate the unit 180 degrees, allowing you the flame and heat to be directed into the desired part of the room. Some models come with a remote control that allows you to control the fireplace from your couch.

To maximize versatility, a lot of the plug and play' wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are equipped with brackets that let you attach them to an unfinished or sloped ceiling. The fireplace can be installed wherever you like is possible, but you can still use the remote control to shut it off or adjust the flame's height and set temperature.

When you are not using your ethanol fire ensure that it is turned off and a safe distance away from any flammable substances or other equipment. Also, don't attempt to pour additional fuel inside the burner until it has cooled down to room temperature and always be careful when handling the fire as it is very hot.
