Production of bio fireplaces as a business

There are three things that you can watch forever: how a person works, how water flows and how fire burns. For a long time fire remains for man the most mysterious and untamed object. People want to have a piece of this mystery in their home, so fireplaces are gaining more and more popularity. But installing a fireplace is quite an expensive service. In addition, to install it, you will need certain permits and mandatory coordination with the fire services. Today there is a great alternative – biofireplace, because it can be installed almost anywhere and get a live fire without odors and smoke. The chimney is not needed; the only condition is a well-ventilated room. The advantages of this type of fireplaces also include their environmental friendliness, ease of maintenance and basic installation.
Directions for business development on biofireplaces
There are several main areas:
Independent production of bio fireplaces and the sale of finished products. It can be both big floor biofireplaces, and small souvenir, decorative options.
Production and sale of biofuels. For the functioning of any biofireplace you need a firebox for combustible material and biofuel directly. Such products will be in demand among people who already have biofireplaces.
Sale of finished products. You can act as an intermediary between the manufacturer of fireplaces and end users – to create advertising, promote products on the market, to make transactions. Such mediation can also bring you considerable income.
Let’s now look at each of these areas.
Bio-fireplace technology
Making a bio-fireplace with your own hands is easy. The first step is to decide on:
type of biofireplace. The most common – table and floor;
number of burners. The larger the fireplace, the more the burners are installed in it;
volume of fuel tank.
How to make a desktop bio fireplace
For production you will need:
glass;
glass cutter;
silicone sealant for gluing glasses;
stainless steel mesh;
metal box;
small stones or pebbles;
fuel for bio fireplaces (bioethanol);
cord (wick);
metal cup for fuel.
Calculating the size of the future fireplace, you need to consider that the distance from the burner to the side windows should be 15 cm or more. If several burners are used in a biofireplace, the distance between them should also be 15 cm.
Biofireplace do-it-yourself production of a biofireplace
The process of making biofireplace with his own hands is as follows:
Pour flammable substance in a metal cup. This is important, as some fuels are sold in plastic containers. We put on the bottom of the metal box.
Cut a metal grid in the form of a box and put it into it. It is possible to make two layers of mesh for strength.
The entire surface of the grid is laid with heat-resistant stones. Stones are used not only for decoration, but also very important for optimal heat transfer and uniform heat distribution over the surface.
We make a wick out of the lace and immerse it in a metal cup with bioethanol, ignite.
That’s all. As you can see, making a bio-fireplace with your own hands is a snap!

If we follow the technology of production of biofireplaces as a fuel tank, we will need to use an airtight container made of stainless steel sheets. In this case, welding work will be required, since it is necessary to make the seams tight. It is recommended to perform argon welding with a semiautomatic device – then the seams will be neat and tight. First, the sheet of metal must be marked to the required size, and then bend at 90 ° to make the box. The cover is cut separately. The basis for the manufacture of the fuel block biofireplace can take the following drawing:

After the welding of the main box is completed, a smaller container is placed inside, and a plurality of holes must be made in its bottom. The container is filled with absorbent material, and then the lid is welded. The finished fuel tank may look like this:
