Give Your Home a Modern Look with Ethanol Fireplaces
Imagine a free-standing wall divider between your dining and living rooms, but instead of a solid wall, there’s a chunk in the center cut out, in a blocky C-shape. Where the wall is missing is a glass-encased fireplace that turns on and off with your smartphone.
For do-it-yourselfers, building your own hearth sounds like a fun project. Those who may not be so handy or great at crafts might want to hire someone for this idea.
If you want to turn your flame on and off with your smartphone, you should consider the Smart Bio Ethanol Electronic Burner – you can get one in silver or black. Be sure the slot is slightly larger than the insert you purchased – you can get one as small as 18 inches or as large as 72 inches across. The extra space around the insert is necessary to accommodate any expansion of the metal.
Can’t decide between the silver and black finish? There’s an easy way to decide. If you’re looking for the fire to really pop from within a dark finished wall, choose the black. The flame from the silver ethanol insert looks great with brighter colors.
