1. Gel fuel fireplaces allow you to enjoy all the benefits of a real fire, without the inconveniences of smoke, odors, and messy cleanup.
2. Gel fuel fireplaces look identical to traditional fireplaces and
gas log fireplaces, but they require no chimney or gas plumbing to
operate.
3. To generate heat and flames, gel fuel fireplaces use canisters
containing jellied alcohol, which is known as gel fuel. These cans burn
for 2 to 3 hours and generate up to 3,000 BTUs of heat per hour. This
clean-burning, all-natural fuel produces a flame that is smokeless,
odorless, and ecologically friendly.
4. For a wider, larger, warmer fire, you can simply ignite two or
three cans of gel fuel. Fires can easily be extinguished by replacing
can lids with appropriate tools. Partially used gel fuel canisters can
be used for future fires.
5. According to research performed by the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) and the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), the burning of gel fuel does not adversely affect air quality.
Gel fuel meets all health and safety standards laid out by OSHA and the
EPA.
6. Since gel fuel fireplaces
do not require venting or plumbing, you can use them anywhere in your
home. Picture the romance of a fire in the master bedroom, or the
relaxing ambiance of a flickering hearth in the master bath. Your
imagination is the limit.
7. Because they install anywhere, gel fuel fireplaces are a popular
choice for apartments, mobile homes, offices, restaurants, and more. If
not permanently installed, gel fuel fireplaces are completely portable.
8. Gel fuel fireplaces are not intended to replace your primary heat
source. Their main purpose is to provide the ambiance of a real fire
and some supplementary warmth.
9. Like traditional fireplaces, gel fuel fireplaces are available in
a wide range of size, style, and color options so you can easily find
designs to match your decor and available space.
