Bioethanol, also known as biofuel or bioalcohol, is a cleaner option than traditional firewood. It burns without smoke, so users can enjoy warmth indoors without stepping outside. The fuel is simple to operate, easy to install, and tends to keep homes tidy since it does not produce dirt. Additional benefits include a near odorless burn and reduced carbon dioxide emissions compared to conventional fuels.
On the flip side, price remains a consideration. Bioethanol typically costs more than many other heating fuels, and heat output is usually confined to a single room. It does not maintain residual warmth after being extinguished, and it does not spread heat through entire houses like some central heating systems.
Regarding design options, bioethanol fireplaces come in a range of configurations for indoor use as well as outdoor spaces, including floor models and table-top variants. This flexibility makes it easy to find an option that fits a given room size and aesthetic. In some markets, cheaper bioethanol fireplaces and “bio fireplaces” are frequently highlighted by retailers.

The most affordable option noted is the Ruby, a Mantova desktop biofireplace. It features a rectangular base in black lacquered steel, a 1.5-liter burner with ceramic fiber, and a double-walled high-resistance glass guard. Flame adjustment is controlled by a movable cover on the burner, delivering about 2 kW of heat and a price around 149 euros.
Another Ruby variant sits on the floor, offering a rectangular base with feet, a shock absorber, and a price near 209 euros.

The goal with any glass-enclosed biofireplace is a clear viewing pane and consistent flame visibility. Regular cleaning should remove soot and smoke residue that can dull the surface. Using approved glass cleaners and non-abrasive tools helps preserve the panel and the protective coatings on the ceramic fibers inside the burner. Routine maintenance also includes checking seals and ensuring the burner cap sits properly to prevent drafts.
For wall-mounted options, some models offer a lacquered steel build with a square silhouette designed for flush installation. The burner generally uses a ceramic fiber insert with a compact 0.9-liter capacity and produces around 1.5 kW of heat. These units are typically priced near 220 euros and are easy to install, clean, and operate, making them attractive for modern wall aesthetics.
