FAQs
Can I use this heater inside my house?
No, this product is strictly designed for outdoor use only to ensure proper ventilation and safety.
How long does it burn on a single fill?
Burn time depends on the amount of fuel used and environmental conditions like wind, but generally, a full reservoir provides several hours of flame.
Does it produce smoke or smell?
Bioethanol is a clean-burning fuel, so it produces minimal to no smoke and no ash, though a faint odor may be present during ignition or extinguishing.
How do I extinguish the flame?
Use the provided snuffer tool or the integrated sliding cover to safely cut off the oxygen supply to the burner.
Is the exterior surface hot to the touch?
Yes, the metal housing can become hot while the fireplace is in operation. Handle with extreme caution and keep away from children and pets.
Where can I buy the fuel?
Bioethanol fuel is widely available at hardware stores, outdoor recreation retailers, and through various online marketplaces.
Troubleshooting
Flame is difficult to ignite
Ensure you are using high-quality bioethanol fuel and that the burner is not overfilled, which can saturate the wick or burner housing.
Flame is inconsistent or flickering abnormally
Check that the unit is on a level surface and that there is no debris obstructing the air intake near the base.
Surface beneath the unit is getting hot
Always place the heater on a heat-resistant trivet or non-flammable mat if the table surface is made of glass, plastic, or finished wood.
