Designer Fireplaces

Yes, EcoSmart Fire bioethanol fireplaces are freestanding pieces designed to move between rooms without any permanent installation or building work.

Because each fireplace is completely self-contained, with no gas lines, no electrical connections, and no flues, you can relocate one to any room that meets the minimum size requirements and has the necessary clearances. The process is straightforward: ensure the new room has at least 40 cubic metres [1,412 cubic ft] of space (larger burners require 70 cubic metres [2,472 cubic ft]); maintain 1,500 mm [59.1 in] distance from curtains and flammable materials and 600 mm [23.6 in] from fixed furniture; and consider the fireplace's weight before moving.

The deep-drawn fuel tanks and weighted bases are engineered for stability during repositioning, and anti-tip brackets keep the piece secure once placed. Simply refill the burner, light, and enjoy. No contractor visits, no room modifications.

Yes, EcoSmart Fire designer fireplaces prove that function and aesthetic design are entirely compatible; in fact, the technology actively enables sophisticated form. Bioethanol burning produces only heat, steam and carbon dioxide, meaning no smoke or ash stains marble, real oak veneer, or concrete surfaces. This clean combustion frees designers to specify luxury materials that would be compromised by a traditional fireplace.

The range demonstrates this across every detail. Stone-finished units pair Italian Carrara or Turkish Nero Portoro marble with brushed brass accents, materials selected precisely because they'll remain pristine. 360-degree orbital designs let the flame become the sculptural centrepiece, visible from multiple angles. Slimline profiles disappear into cabinetry, delivering an almost-invisible function with a striking visual presence.

Bespoke design extends beyond materials. Grade 304 stainless steel, toughened glass, and 11+ colour options integrate into contemporary or traditional interiors without compromise. There's no flue to dictate placement or cut through sightlines. The fireplace delivers genuine warmth while serving as the room's defining focal point: performance and presence, without trade-offs.

Designer fireplaces require a minimum 600mm (24 inches) side clearance from furniture and 2000mm (79 inches) overhead clearance from movable items like trees or curtains. The fireplaces feature built-in zero-clearance engineering to combustible framing, but you must maintain these safety distances from the flame opening and keep away from all flammable materials.

Yes, EcoSmart Fire offers designer fireplace ranges explicitly suited to apartment and small-space living. Compact freestanding models combine sculptural form with bioethanol technology, requiring no gas connections, chimneys, or flues, so you're free to place them where they make the strongest design impact, regardless of your building's infrastructure.

This means renters can add luxury focal points without permanent installation, and homeowners can position fireplaces as movable design statements that work with evolving interiors.

Most models need just 600 mm [23.6 in] minimum side clearance and 2,000 mm [78.7 in] overhead clearance, fitting seamlessly into tighter floor plans. Smaller burners output 2–4 kW of heat and deliver 7–11 hour burn times, producing only heat, water vapour, and CO2 with no smoke, ash, or soot to compromise your finishes.

Over 90% thermal efficiency means all heat stays in the room, making these fireplaces genuinely functional beyond their visual presence.

Designer bioethanol fireplaces require minimal maintenance because clean-burning combustion produces only heat, water vapour, and CO2 in ventilated rooms, with no soot, ash, or residue. This is fundamentally different from traditional fireplaces, which demand annual chimney sweeping and professional servicing.

Burner care is straightforward: clean after approximately 50 litres of fuel, or when black residue appears around the burner. Allow it to cool completely, apply a multi-purpose cleaner, wipe with the grain, and vacuum debris through the burner opening. For stubborn odours, remove the burner, wash in hot soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry completely before reinstalling.

Surface care varies by material. Powder-coated steel needs mild soap and warm water; apply liquid clear polymer car wax twice yearly. Marble is porous, so wipe spills immediately and clean regularly with warm soapy water. Real oak veneer benefits from regular dusting and prompt attention to spills. Concrete requires a penetrating sealer every six months (residential) or quarterly (commercial). Teak develops a natural patina over time; clean every few months with mild soap and apply teak oil or sealer once or twice yearly. Grade 304 stainless steel needs no special treatment. Standard glass cleaner works for fire screens.

Never use steel wool or scrubbing brushes. No professional servicing, no annual inspections. Just straightforward care that protects your design investment.
