I ve written with the fires in mind that produce 2 3 kw heat per hour which is almost the same as a radiator.
Are ethanol fireplaces efficient.
That being said some ethanol fireplaces do produce more heat than necessary.
In the process the engineers took the din 4734 1 standard into account defined the technical minimum standard.
The process is pretty simple actually.
Combustion gases from renewable energy sources such as bio ethanol are cleaned by a catalytic converter and released into the room making ventless fires efficient because no heat is lost via the flue the combustion process produces water steam and carbon dioxide.
However you cannot use the fireplaces as a primary source of heat but they are a nice supplement.
For starters they don t produce any type of waste and they help you to have a healthier indoor air quality.
You don t have to worry about any nasty chemicals filling the air in your home because the ethanol is completely plant based and environmentally friendly.
They do give a substantial amount of heat.
Heat efficiency the most interesting aspect for many is whether or not ethanol fireplaces give off any heat.
If you are going to take the time to use a.
Ethanol fireplaces are not only more efficient but they are environmentally friendly in other ways as well.
The ethanol fireplaces were tested inside a stainless steel 48 m 3 test chamber.
To me efficiency of ethanol fireplaces consists of the heat they produce the burning time and the operating cost of the fireplace.
Some ethanol fireplaces do indeed produce more heat than a radiator.
