Accessories: EcoSmart Fireplaces
October 18th, 2007
From Janet:
Burn bans, global warming, soaring natural gas bills. What’s a fire lover to do? EcoSmart Fire: simply put, a fire-in-a-box that can fit in a traditional fireplace, function as a freestanding unit, or be used in a variety of other configurations, indoors and out. Because it requires no flue and burns denatured ethanol, EcoSmart offers a clean, odorless flame and doesn’t need a utility connection. Go to ecosmartfire.com for retail locations.
In-wall unit; $4,500 to $5,200:

$2,300 for burner unit or $3,300 for unit plus retrofit for existing fireplaces:
. 
The free-standing unit (price range $5,900 to $8,700) is great for apartments:

My favorite: the traditional grate can be slipped into an existing fireplace or used on its own; $3,300:

Those EcoSmartFire are a brilliant idea! I like the fact they are environmentally responsible and still be on a design edge. Great concept using ethanol. Love it!

This is unbelievable! I have been looking for something like this for years now for our apartment. They’re eco-friendly, they’re stunning and they warm too from what I have since read elsewhere. And no flue? - I’m sold!
