Safety Guidelines for Using Bio Ethanol Tabletop Fireplaces
A bio ethanol tabletop fireplace is a beautiful addition to any interior, but like any type of fireplace, safety is essential. Bio ethanol is a clean and safe fuel, but it is still a flammable liquid. By following a few simple safety precautions, you can enjoy the warmth and atmosphere of your fireplace safely and with peace of mind.
- Refill Only When the Fireplace Is Cool: Never refill your fireplace while it’s still burning or hot. Wait until it has fully cooled to avoid dangerous flare-ups.
- Use the Right Type of Fuel: Only use fireplace-grade bio ethanol. Avoid using spirits, alcohol, or other flammable liquids.
- Refill Carefully: Use a funnel or special filling bottle to avoid spills. Clean any spills before lighting.
- Keep Bio Ethanol Away from Children and Pets: Store safely in a cool, ventilated place, away from heat sources.
- Place the Fireplace on a Stable Surface: Ensure it stands firmly and is not near flammable materials like curtains or furniture.
- Extinguish the Flame Safely: Use the included lid or extinguishing plate. Never leave the flame unattended.
- Use in a Well-Ventilated Area: Even though it burns clean, ensure the room has good airflow to prevent CO₂ buildup.
- Be Aware of the Flame: The flame can be hard to see in daylight. Take extra care when lighting or extinguishing.
- Choose Certified Fireplaces: At Tafelhaardcentrum, we only sell fireplaces that meet strict safety standards like TÜV certification.
- Inspect Regularly: Check for cracks, wear, or damage. Do not use a damaged fireplace until it is repaired.
