The fuel used in the fireplace is denatured ethanol also referred to as ethyl alcohol, bio ethanol or grain alcohol. This is sourced from natural products such as plants including corn, wheat, barley and sugarcane and is a safe natural fuel to use and is an eco-friendly fuel.
LE FEU fireplaces should use only liquid, pure denatured ethanol. This can be identified under under various trade names (bio-alcohol, bio ethanol stove fuel etc.) and is sold at building merchandise stores, and the Internet.
LE FEU fireplaces are engineered and designed to allow the specially created dome to deliver beautiful ambient heat. The fireplaces produce approximately 2.0 to 3.0kw of heat which is equivalent to a small gas or electric heater. 2.0 to 2.5kw output of heat approximately heats a 20 square metre room.
FOR HOW LONG DOES THE BIO ETHANOL FIREPLACE BURN?The duration is dependent on the burner setting used and conditions of the climate. In areas of high air current the duration may be reduced. It is estimated 1.5 litre of fuel may last for up to 5 to 6 hours subject to conditions.
