Installation Notes

EcoSmart Fire burners go into non-combustible settings only. In a custom firebox, the box must be non-combustible, accommodate the top tray, sit on 20 mm (0.8 in) spacers with an air gap, and include a 7 to 9 in static windscreen across its width; EcoSmart recommends its own fireboxes. Without a firebox, keep the overhead and side clearances in the table above, and keep a combustible rear wall at least 23.6 in away.

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 and terraces still apply, so confirm what your building allows before you buy. Designing a custom ethanol fire feature? Book a design consultation.
