Electric fireplaces and Bio Fireplaces are the latest innovations in the world market. Their rapid imposition on the market is triggered by people's desire and aspirations to protect the environment and forests without taking away the cosiness of home-made fire.
One of the most popular devices capable of reproducing the burning quality of the natural flame is, of course, the biofireplace. Modern bio fireplaces are fireproof, their installation requires no chimney, they do not consume electricity, and the huge range allows everyone to choose a product according to their taste and preference.
Modern, new-generation fireplaces with the prefix "electro" appeared on the market. Anyone who has ever seen this engineering miracle in action is amazed at the ease of use, environmental friendliness, stylish design and, of course, the stunning effect of a living fire that attracts everyone's eyes as a magnet. In addition to the decorative function, they can also warm the room.
To choose the fireplace best suited to you, you need to know the principle of work, characteristics, and their advantages and disadvantages. What functionality they provide, what are their similarities and differences. Are they economical? Are they safe?
The principle of operating the electric fireplace depends on different subspecies of this class, but is generally put in their name. The device is powered by a 220V power supply. For the device to work, simply plug it in. You now have a great heating device, which also features an impressive design.
Bio fireplaces will bring coziness and elegance to your home or office with the glow of their true fire. Inside, there is a special burner in the structure that is powered by environmentally-friendly biofuels that can keep the fireplace free of smoke, smell, or harmful substances in the atmosphere. Bioethanol is used as a fuel whose use does not require a chimney or special permits.
As we have written above, electric fireplaces have only imitation of burning. In the more expensive models for this role, a steam generator is used to create a 3D live fire effect, and the simpler options are provided with a special flame-retracted (2D) screen, while the brightness and combustion intensity can often be regulated.
Bio fireplaces can be compared with a classic wood burner or kerosene lamp that uses innovative technologies in the 21st century. These devices burn for real - with a real light burning fire but no smoke, soot and ash.
Both types of fireplaces do not require pre-conditioning of the room.
Electric fireplaces are lightweight and comfortable to carry. It is enough to find a comfortable place in the apartment that is close to the contact. Bio fireplaces are more mobile - they can be installed in any corner of the room, placed on the table and even hung on the wall.
The work of most electric fireplaces provides two modes - visual imitation and heating. They can be used all year round. Also, many models have features such as flame color, flame brightness control, burning wood sound effect, timer, and more.
Most bio fireplaces have no functionality and only carry the flame burning function. If you choose more expensive automatic models, then you can find advanced features in them - different flame control, remote control, auto ignition (no need for matches and lighters) as well as smartphone management and connection to the Smart Home system.
Since the bio fireplace is running on real fuel, you will not be able to raise the ambient temperature at all. These structures at the maximum heating level can be used as an additional heat source but the fuel consumption will be high.
