Our property is a small 1 bedroom Bungalow.
Currently with No heating!
This heater warms up the lounge very well, up to 19 degrees and the rest of the building is warm.
Current outdoor temperature is 3 degrees at night!
12ish daytime.
FUEL:
We purchased a 2lt bottle of Bioethanol from the Big diy store and it smells a fair bit when burning.
DEFINITELY BUY premium fuel EkoFuel.
It’s worth going for fuel that is purified 3 times as barely smells when burning.
After lighting we tend to leave the airbox fully open for 15/20 minutes then have it open about quarter.
(1/2 litre lasted 4h 45m airbox open quarter)
It Obviously doesn’t put out as much heat like this.
Open it fully and the heat is amazing, in fact too hot for our lounge! It will guzzle fuel this way.
INSTALLATION:
Easy to fit, four holes to drill. It comes with decent screw hooks and literally drops on the hooks so it is easy to remove if needed.
DOWNSIDES: if using this a lot, it isn’t going to be mega cheap to run.
You will be able to smell this however with premium fuel it’s very minimal, cheaper fuels stink.
When it runs out you should wait about 15/20 minutes for it to cool down before re-fuelling.
In the instructions it states that it should Not be used as a heater!🤔 🤷🏻♂️
Overall it is well made, looks nice, gives out a good bit of heat, it’s just over 1.5KW.
A few people on reviews said that theirs went black, after 2 weeks of heavy use ours has not gone black at all.
