Bioethanol and the safety hereof

Introduction

'Which bioethanol is the best?' or 'which bioethanol should I use in my bio fire?' are questions we are often asked. Those are important questions as the quality of bioethanol differs greatly as bioethanol comes as different types of fuel (e.g. fuel for biofireplaces and fuel for cars). To avoid confusion, we have, therefore, written this article to provide you with a comprehensive insight to the bioethanol you should use for your bio fire.

There have been many horror stories about bioethanol in the media. This is somehow understandable considering bioethanol is a highly inflammable liquid. This is also the cause of why accidents can get ugly. Some of these accidents even occurred with kids and adults using a bio fireplace. We, therefore, often get the question regarding which is the best and safest bioethanol to use. This is a hard question to answer since it is possible to find good quality bioethanol in the markets all over the world.

Our experience says that all the products that were to blame for the explosions or of giving headaches have been taken out of the market. The Security Council took action and appointed all the products that produced a risk and forbid them from the market. In the beginning, the bio fireplaces did not receive much attention as they were a new product on the market that nobody knew the effect of. The market has now grown so large that safety directives have been appointed by the Security Council and there has been an increased focus on the safety of all bio fires. All our bioethanol fires and bioethanol is TÜV-certified meaning all our products have passed a safety and quality test.

We recommend buying bioethanol fuel on our website or in your local building market so that you can see the product you are buying. We purchase the cleanest bioethanol from our supplier in Germany and we have do not have any complaints about the safety or discomfort of our bioethanol. On the contrary, we even sell to restaurants and hotels that have their bio fireplaces ignited constantly.

Do not use other dangerous liquids to refill

All bioethanol should have a security approval. For this reason, you should be careful if you suddenly find a suspiciously cheap product. In that case, it could be that it is due to its low quality. All around the world, there have been instances of shops that have sold bioethanol for prices as low as £1 to £2 per liter. Afterwards, tests have shown that the product emitted dangerous gas that caused headaches. The use of other inflammable liquids is often one of the reasons why accidents with bio fires happen. Never use alcohol, gasoline, or other liquids that you might find around the house. The bio fireplace is not designed to combust on any other liquids than bioethanol. You can risk if you attempt to combust on other flammable liquids.
