Description

Overall Dimensions: 15.7 x 12.5 x 4.8 in (L x W x H) including top tray, per the EcoSmart Fire manual

The EcoSmart Fire BK5 is the stainless steel bioethanol burner at the heart of many EcoSmart firebox inserts and freestanding fireplaces, and its compact, rectangular body is equally suited to custom fire designs for homes and commercial spaces, indoors or out. A sliding lid sets the flame height and fuel use, a sight line to the tank makes filling safer, and its 5 liter tank runs for about 7 to 11 hours.

Features

  • 5 L tank for about 7 to 11 hours per fill on the maximum setting (EcoSmart Fire manual)
  • 13,000 BTU/h (3.5 kW) maximum thermal output
  • Slider mechanism adjusts the flame, heat and fuel use
  • Fill point and slider aligned so the tank is visible while filling, to avoid overfilling
  • Seamless deep-drawn body with a twin skin to contain the burner
  • 304 grade brushed stainless steel
  • Listed to UL 1370 in the USA, certified to EN 16647

Installation Notes

Set the BK5 in non-combustible material only, such as stainless steel, concrete, brick or natural stone, in a fixed position, and keep the firebox or open-installation clearances above. A custom firebox must be non-combustible, take a top tray, have 0.8 in spacers on all sides and a 7 to 9 in static windscreen; EcoSmart recommends its own fireboxes. Fill only when the burner is cool, and never refill while lit.

In New York City, ethanol fire features are popular because they need no gas line or chimney, but co-op and condo boards and FDNY rules for balconies, terraces and fuel storage still apply, so confirm what your building allows before you buy.
