There is also the option of manual or automated bioethanol burners. An automatic burner keeps the fuel away from the flames, ensuring it can burn for longer without risk of running out or overheating. Manual burners work the same as fireplaces, but you will need matches or lighters in order to ignite the flames.
It's important to remember that when choosing a bio ethanol burner, the burner must be covered with non-combustible material. This will ensure that nothing touches the burning fuel. If you do not cover the burner, the flame could become too hot and damage the fireplace.

(Not all models have this feature). By altering the amount of oxygen is supplied to the fire you can alter the speed at which the fuel is burned and how high the flame burns.
