The bio ethanol fuel is poured into the burner, and then ignited. As the fuel burns, it creates the appearance of a flame and the heat can be controlled with an adjustable slider (not all designs include this feature). By altering the amount of oxygen fed to the fire, you can alter how quickly the fuel is burned and how high the flame burns.

When the fuel is burned, it releases some soot, which is easily cleaned by wiping down the fireplace with a soft cloth. The only other requirement is to keep the burner filled with the correct fuel and to ensure it is kept away from any items or materials that are flammable.
