What are the interesting bio-fireplaces?
The modern world, in addition to pursuing high technologies, also tries to preserve the environment, minimizing the harmful impact on nature. In this sense biofireplaces that operate on environmentally friendly fuel made on the basis of vegetable raw materials fully comply with modern requirements. A prefix "bio" to the word "fireplaces" only emphasizes this their feature.
Since the bio-fireplace does not need to be connected to the mains or to the gas main, there is no need for a chimney, and, in most cases, there is no need for a foundation for the fireplace - this makes it possible to install it in any room and building. Whether it is a living room or a bedroom in an apartment, with the help of a fireplace it is possible to create an additional zone of warmth and coziness.

This is a fairly powerful source of heat, which is quite able to cope with the task, feasible for two electric heaters.

With it, the heating of a dacha or forest house, located far from communications, will not be difficult. Another useful feature of the bio fireplace is its mobility. If he ceased to perform his decorative heating task in one room, he can always be rearranged to another, carried to the terrace or taken to the dacha.
What are bio-fireplaces?
Since the producers of bio-fireplaces try to take into account all the variants of the arrangement of fireplaces in the apartment, there is a wide choice depending on the size, shape and location.
Bio fireplaces for an apartment can be conditionally classified as follows:
- Bio-fireplace on the wall. The peculiarity of the construction of this type of fireplace is that one side of it is made flat and allows it to be hung on the wall. For the production of metal, natural stone and refractory ceramics are used, trying to simplify the design as much as possible. In their shape, these fireplaces can be very different, having a semicircular, square, rectangular or elliptical front part.
- Bio fireplace is outdoor. In contrast to the suspended structure, this fireplace has even more diverse design forms and solutions. In production, in addition to metal, stone and ceramics, wood and refractory glass are also used. Usually they are made with the ability to install anywhere in the room, but there are corner bio-fireplaces. If the usual fireplaces try to provide the appearance of fire from all sides, then the corner must consist of two refractory walls, which protect the walls from fire, laid tiles under the fireplace.
- Street bio-fireplace. This type of fireplace is designed for installation on terraces, balconies and loggias. If you look at it - it's the same bio-fireplace floor, for which a more powerful base is used. In terms of building terms, they make a kind of foundation for the fireplace. Unlike fireplaces intended for installation in rooms, the space at the burner is more open and does not hide the beauty of the fire. Sometimes, in order to simplify the construction and reduce the laboriousness of making a street fireplace, the base floor is used as an ordinary floor bio-fireplace, which is installed on the podium for the fireplace.
- Bio fireplace is a tabletop. This is the smallest fireplace. It is made, as a cylinder, a box or bowl with a flat stand and performs a purely decorative function. To protect the furniture surface from damage, it is recommended to use a special tile under the fireplace, but most of the designs sold are already bundled with all the elements needed for use.
- Built-in bio-fireplace. This is a special type of fireplaces, which is chosen to be built into a wall or furniture and is usually manufactured by individual order. The view is the most difficult to install and manufacture, requiring special tools and knowledge. Built-in bio-fireplace is one of the most original interior solutions, with which you can emphasize the individuality and character of the owners of the apartment. The guests will be amazed at the fireplace built into the cupboard.
How does the bio fireplace work and work?
Fuel blocks for bio-fireplaces are the main elements that are responsible for how the whole structure works. If externally biofire can be decorated with various accessories, fuel blocks of poor quality can spoil even the most beautiful design. It is in them poured bioethanol, whose fumes are burning. In the design of good fuel blocks special shutters are provided, changing the position of which you can adjust the intensity and shape of the flame.

Decoration of biofireplaces
In order to create an even more realistic feeling that the fireplace is real, use various accessories for the fireplace and design solutions. If you allow the area of the apartment and there is no need to save space, you can simulate the foundation for the fireplace, although this is not a prerequisite for installation. To distinguish the working area, the tile under the fireplace is good. Ceramic wood and fire-resistant stones were widely used. The flame highlights them, creating a truly unique effect. It is these accessories for bio-fireplaces that create the illusion of burning real firewood.
