FAQs
Does this fireplace produce smoke?
No, because it uses bioethanol, it produces only heat, steam, and a negligible amount of carbon dioxide. No smoke, soot, or ash is created.
Can I use this outdoors?
It is suitable for covered outdoor areas, but should be protected from wind and direct rain to ensure safety and consistent flame quality.
How do I extinguish the fire?
The unit should be extinguished by using the provided lid or flame shutter to cut off the oxygen supply to the burner.
Is it safe to touch the glass during use?
No, the tempered glass panels can become hot during operation. Always keep hands and flammable objects at a safe distance.
Where can I buy fuel?
Bioethanol fuel is widely available at hardware stores, home improvement centers, and online retailers.
How often should I clean the burner?
It is recommended to inspect the burner after every few uses to ensure the ceramic wool remains in good condition and free of debris.
Troubleshooting
Flame does not ignite
Ensure you are using high-quality bioethanol fuel and that the burner is not overfilled. Check that the ceramic wool is damp with fuel.
Glass panels appear cloudy
Clean the panels with a mixture of water and a small amount of white vinegar using a microfiber cloth once the unit is completely cold.
Short burn time
Check that the burner is filled to its 0.5-liter capacity and that the fuel reservoir is properly seated.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your BIOFireplacesGMT unit is straightforward. As a freestanding fireplace, no tools or professional installation are required; simply place the unit on a flat, heat-resistant surface. To maintain the fireplace, wipe the tempered glass with a soft, non-abrasive cloth to prevent finger marks and residue buildup. Ensure the burner is completely cool before attempting to refill the fuel. When not in use, store the unit in a dry place to protect the white matt finish. Always keep the area around the fireplace clear of flammable materials and ensure proper ventilation in the room when the fire is burning.
