bioethanol fireplace
Posted: Fri Oct 11, 2019 9:41 am
Got this project underway. Chimney has been capped so a open fire was a none starter without scaffolding. So for now.. I've gone bio ethanol
Burner came off Amazon
I removed the free standing electric fireplace and removed the wall paper and hardboard (yes hardboard sheet revealing the old fireplace,
Nice lintle above so.. 2*2 battern round the chimney hole and plasterboard sheet followed by dry lining the opening
Then built a plasterboard ledge plastered the underside before fitting in place adding a metal bowl under the burner as a fail safe containment for the bioethanol should the burner leak then plastered the lot allowed to dry
Tiled the ledge and back just need to paint the sides.. metal deflector plate above to protect the top lining (Morrisons baking sheet) after an hour's burn it only got to 80°c with my thermo gun). Behind the decorative log slivers there is a 15mm hole so incase of a leak and fire I can get a extinguisher jet into the base to snuff out any problem
Well pictures paint 1000 words : in a back to front sort of way.... Just the surround to finish now
