While the traditional open fireplace is appealing, it is often incompatible with modern housing and contemporary living standards and lacks the necessary environmental care, efficiency and design flexibility that consumers are looking for. The EcoSmart Fire presents a solution to these problems.

The EcoSmart Fire is an Australian innovation - an environmentally friendly open fireplace. Flue-less and easily transportable, the EcoSmart Fire does not require any installation or utility connection for fuel supply, which makes it ideal for apartment and city living. Fuelled by a renewable energy (Denatured Ethanol), it burns clean and is virtually maintenance free.

The fuel is housed in a stainless steel chamber called the EcoSmart Burner. The built-in regulatory mechanism allows you to regulate and extinguish the flame, which means you can manipulate the amount of heat being generated and the quantity of fuel used. The life of the fire is determined by the amount of fuel in the burner. Once the fuel is burnt there is nothing to clean or clear.

EcoSmart Fires can be free standing, wall mounted, fully fitted into a range of personalized finishes, shapes and colors or inserted into a closed-off fireplace. The burner can also be inserted into joinery to create a streamlined bench top feature. Without the need for flue or pipe connections, EcoSmart Fires offer remarkable design flexibility previously unavailable to the consumer.
