Does the glass impact the bio ethanol fire flame?

Yes, safety glass does have an impact on the bio ethanol fire flame. A bioethanol fire needs oxygen to work properly - that is why it is not possible to completely seat an ethanol fire with safety glass. Only one bioethanol fire is completely sealed off with glass. It is manufactured by Planika Fires, and is called FLA 3 Suite Logs. This specific fireplace has a very special construction and also requires a number of accessories and separate ventilation.

The same bio ethanol burner can burn different depending on how the glass is fitted for the fireplace. For example, a standard round bioethanol tabletop fireplace, the glass would rest directly on the side of the burner itself. In such a case, where the flame opening is large, lack of oxygen may cause the flames to rise because they lack oxygen at the bottom of the bioethanol fire. The flames will seek out at the top of the bioethanol fire, and may appear unregulated. This can be remedied by adding air circulation beneath the glass, for example by placing the glass on certain glass holders or feet.

When it comes to a freestanding fireplace for outdoor use on a terrace or in a garden, these fireplaces are quite exposed to wind, and wind has an impact on a bio ethanol burner. The flames will appear unstable.

It is often seen that bio ethanol freestanding table fireplaces are framed with glass, as they are typically taken outside during summer. This includes round, square, and rectangular models. They are available in many designs and colours - the most popular being black, white, and steel.

In cases where customers have purchased, or wish to purchase, an ethanol fireplace without a desired safety glass, we often see inquiries about whether it is possible to raise the glass or completely seal the side with glass. People, and especially parents with young children and pet owners, often request to shield the flame as much as possible. Unfortunately, this is not always possible, but there are a number of alternatives and intermediate solutions. Please contact us if you have a specific request.

Safety for your bioethanol fireplace

If you are not completely comfortable with a fully open bioethanol fireplace, it is possible to add safety glass to your ethanol fireplace. However, a bio fuel fire needs oxygen, so it is not possible to close it off completely with glass. The safety glass should make toy feel safer with your bioethanol fire and you will not have to worry about children getting too close to the flames.

How to mount the glass to your bioethanol fireplace

The installation of safety glass for your bioethanol fireplace depends on the type of glass you are looking for. Even within the fireplace category, there are different types of installation:
