Biofireplaces with glass

Biofireplaces with glass allow you to enjoy the warmth and pleasant view of the flames shooting happily in the air without worrying about the safety of you and your family. They are a visually attractive and fully ecological alternative to traditional fireplaces.

In our offer you will find biofireplaces with glass only from reputable companies KAMI and INFIRE, which are distinguished by interesting design and solid workmanship.

Below the catalog of available products, we have included some useful tips on how to choose a biofireplace with a glass.

What is the function of biofireplaces with glass?

A fireplace powered by biofuel is an excellent source of heat that will complement the heating system. Most models of ecological fireplaces offer a heating potential of about 2kW. This amount is comparable to a radiator or a typical "farelka" and is usually enough to maintain the optimal temperature on an area of 20-30 m2.

That is why bio-fireplaces are most often placed in the living room, bedroom or on the terrace. Then they are enough to heat the immediate space, emitting pleasant heat.

A biofireplace will be perfect as an interior decoration. Typical models are usually made of steel, stone, glass, concrete or a combination of these materials. In showrooms specializing in the sale of such heating devices, you will find models that fit both industrial (loft), classic and rustic interiors.

A biofireplace with glass can be a breath of practical modernity, which will make your life easier, at the same time giving the interior a unique character.

Biofireplace with or without glass?

In a traditional fireplace, the glass plays a protective role and improves air circulation. You certainly know that the flame behind the glass burns longer and harder. The partition effectively separates the dangerous area from children and pets who could suffer burns due to curiosity. Glass biofireplaces function a bit differently.

In their case, the glass pane has a mainly decorative function, which is why it is very often stylized and cut into fanciful shapes. The ecological fireplace works on the basis of biofuel, so the flame will burn inside the house just as effectively in versions with and without glass.

The big advantage of biofireplaces with glass is that the glass practically does not get dirty during use. Lack of soot and smoke during fuel combustion prevents dirt from settling on the glass. Of course, you'll have to remove fingerprints and dust every now and then, but that's about it.

Importantly, a biofireplace with glass does not always have to be built into the wall. Glass is also used in many portable models. However, it is never the case that a transparent sheet completely prevents access from the outside. Manufacturers design individual models in such a way as to facilitate refueling or adjusting the intensity of the flame.

The use of thick, toughened glass, of course, perfectly protects against accidental burns, but it also has its drawbacks.

First of all, more weight. A biofireplace with a massive glass will be much heavier than a similar model, but uncovered. In addition, the use of partitions affects convection. Warm air will disperse much slower, which in turn means a longer time to reach the desired temperature and a greater consumption of bioethanol.

Is a biofireplace with a glass safer than without it?

Covering the hearth with glass is especially useful when your branch is running around the house. Quality standards require the use of toughened glass, which heats up more slowly and to a lesser extent than ordinary glass. Even an accidental touch should not end in a tragedy.

Glass biofireplaces will also work well outdoors. If you are considering the position of the fireplace in the garden or on the patio, the glass plate will shield the flame, which will burn longer and more steadily.

However, remember that a biofireplace with glass, due to the use of expensive components, will be more expensive than the exposed models.

Is a glass bio fireplace a good idea?

The great advantage of ecological fireplaces is their mobility. Contrary to classic, brick fireplaces, the biofireplace can be easily and quickly moved to any place. Simple, small model weighs only a few kilograms, so even a child can handle them.

What's more, the biofireplace with glass does not require the connection of chimneys. All you need to do is provide good ventilation in the room. The biofuel used to power the device is fully biodegradable, and the amount of carbon dioxide produced in the combustion process is negligible.

Is it profitable to be ECO, or how does a biofireplace with glass work?

All bio-fireplaces are powered by bioethanol. It is a special fuel that is produced on the basis of the fermentation of plant carbohydrates. In Poland, ecological fuel is produced mainly from potatoes and beetroot, and in the world to a large extent from sugar cane. One of the Spanish companies specializing in the production of bioethanol began to produce it even from renewable fractions of municipal waste!

Good quality bioethanol should be odorless and burn only to water vapor and a small amount of carbon dioxide. It does not leave soot, smoke and is completely safe for health.

Most manufacturers are seeking to obtain a PZH certificate, which is granted after the material has been subjected to rigorous sanitary tests.

Biofireplaces with glass, like other models of ecological fireplaces, have a special partition into which bioethanol should be poured. Then just set the biofuel on fire and it's ready! One liter of liquid is enough for up to 6 hours of continuous burning, depending on the heating power of the fireplace and the size of the flame.

There are no legal requirements to use a bio-fireplace, unlike closed or open wood-burning fireplaces. In the case of classic fireplaces, you must meet the restrictions listed in the ordinance of the Minister of Infrastructure on technical conditions to be met by buildings and their location).
