What is a freestanding bio-ethanol fireplace?

A freestanding bio-ethanol fireplace stands freely in the room and burns liquid biofuel. You don't need installation or a flue: unpack, fill, and light. This makes this type of fireplace ideal if you want to quickly create atmosphere without renovating.

Who is a freestanding fireplace suitable for?

A freestanding fireplace is a great solution for a rental or new-build home, or if you don't want to break open a wall. If you want to conceal the fire in a wall or furniture, check out our bio-ethanol built-in fireplaces. If you're looking for a compact ambiance creator for your table, take a look at the table fireplaces or the wall-mounted fireplaces.

Without a flue or gas connection

Bio-ethanol burns cleanly, without smoke or soot. So you don't need a chimney, flue, or gas connection. Always ensure sufficient ventilation while burning and only refill the burner when it has completely cooled down.

What to consider when making your choice?

Consider the size of the room, the desired burn time, and the heat output per model. Larger burners provide more heat and a longer flame line. You can find the dimensions, burn time, and capacity for each fireplace in the specifications. In doubt? Ask for non-binding advice.
