e-NRG Bioethanol Fuel

What is the shelf life of e-NRG bioethanol fuel?

The shelf life is 3 years if kept in a tightly sealed container and in a cool, dry area (approx 69°F).

How is bioethanol made?

Bioethanol, or simply ethanol, is a renewable energy source made by fermenting sugars and starch components of plant by-products (mainly sugarcane and crops like grain) using yeast. It is also made from corn, potatoes, milk, rice, beetroot and, more recently, grapes.

Is it required that I use a jerry can to operate e-NRG or can I pour e-NRG directly into the burner?

Yes, we provide jerry cans, lighting rods and lighters with every burner because we want you to have the highest quality and safest experience possible when using our products. The jerry can ensures that you don’t splash ethanol when pouring or overfill the burner.

If you add the adaptor to the e-NRG bottle the Safety Spout can be connected to the bottle - only then can you use the e-NRG bottle to fill the burner. Filling from the bottle without an attached safety spout can result in serious injury.

How can I reduce my carbon footprint?

Bio-friendly renewable fuel source - bioethanol - is used for bioethanol fires. This eliminates the release of by-products that create greenhouse emissions.

Is this the same ethanol I can buy at gas stations?

No. The ethanol sold at gas stations is in no way similar to e-NRG.

How safe is a bioethanol fuel?

Bioethanol is a very stable fuel source that when used in a bioethanol fireplace, combusts very evenly with no embers, soot, smoke or ash. It is completely contained within the burner unit so it cannot escape or be unpredictable in the combustion process - unlike, for instance, timber, which can be inconsistent with combustion or can even move in the fireplace setting, thus requiring guards and a hearth.

What are the burn times and cost per hour for a quart/gallon?

Burn times and costs per hour vary by burner and condition of installation. For accurate burn times based on your installation type, please contact EcoSmart on (888) 670 3674.

Does e-NRG bio ethanol burn yellow or blue?
