Love from Vermont.

    The views from the drone of your Chataeu are so beautiful, you should be very proud of all the work in keeping the grounds and water looking so fantasic. As for the fire with no heat, well! at least you tried it. So back to the drawing board regarding the heating of this room, I have no suggestions except perhaps re think the chimney outlet. There must be a solution out there somewhere from one of your followers. Keep up the great work you have ibviously been doing so far Phil. 💕🇦🇺

    Here we use similar ethanol to heat chafing dishes, can’t imagine someone would promote it for heating an entire room. Also used for “decorative fireplace inserts” that aren’t fireplaces at all. Love the new intro! ❤❤❤

      I have something similar as well, that sits on my coffee table or outside seating area, but I use the wadding in it... Heating the metal stove it's sitting inside of is quite an inventive idea. The stove with flames (even without radiating heat) becomes a focal point & sets a cozy atmosphere. I'm interested in the results either way.

    We have trees and plenty of seasoned firewood so we placed a large, forced-air wood stove in the fireplace that has an outlet nearby to plug into. For insurance reasons, we had it professionally installed. Scott spends each fall cutting and splitting firewood (gas splitter) so it is a lot of extra work, but we are never cold and the fire lasts all night. 3000 sq ft house. Might be good for a few of your rooms downstairs. We circulate heat to other rooms with small fans. I hate to see you all so cold in the videos.

Not of the costs but the scenery and tranquility one can have owning something so beautiful. Thank you. It must be very hard to make it all happen.

    I had one of those fake wood burners, but the heat source was natural gas. It had ceramic logs and I would light a wick which would spread the flames and make it look like the logs were burning. It came with the house and I would never have bought such a monstrosity. Yours is beautiful compared to mine. I have to admit that it did heat the whole house, all 777square feet.

  • @elizabethmcglothlin5406

    Stove needs to be farther out into the room so the heat goes there and not up the chimney! In Ohio, we put a solid bit in the opening and set the stove out on a metal pad. Not pretty but more efficient.

  • @deborahwatts436

    Sorry to tell you that will give off about as much heat as a candle. Certainly not going to heat a room with it. The stove will probably warm up a little, but won't get hot enough to act as a radiator. Love the drone footage at the beginning! I bought one of those electric fireplaces with a heater and a blower a couple of years ago. It looks really nice but is just as useless to heat a room. I think they were probably on to something with those giant fireplaces you usually see in chateaus. I wonder how they heated the rooms that didn't have fireplaces though? Did they have wood burning boilers for radiators back then?

  • @Ozworldz

  • @pathoodjoy
    @pathoodjoy Před rokem +8

    You probably need fire bricks inside that will absorb and radiate any heat that is generated. There is a gel fuel they sell here in Canada for doing this sort of thing for an small outdoor fire pit. Perhaps it's the type of fuel. I know the gel fuel roasts marshmallows, but not sure how much heat it generates. Best of luck going forward.

    • @DB.scale.models
      @DB.scale.models Před rokem

      I looked it up that fuel ethanol burns at 798 f
      Or 425c.
      Hot enough!
      So, the problem is you might need more fuel burners.
      If you put 3 logs on the fire,you would have 3 ignition sources, not one.
      FYI, wood burns at 700f.
      Cool luck!

  • @lynneh9744
    @lynneh9744 Před rokem +3

    The stove looks great alone! And really great once the flame turned yellow!! Watching for the updates ie I'm looking forward to seeing if you can figure out how to get it to give off heat. I have several stoves, not as nice as yours, which I've collected over the years which were designed to burn oil. Too dangerous and smelly, so I have only used them decoratively with candles inside. Would be great to figure out a safe way to give off some heat...ps Would your stove burn anthrocite (??spelling) if you put a bit of flexible flue up the chimney, and joined it to back of stove?

  • @jellesaimee4990
    @jellesaimee4990 Před rokem +5

    I’ve got two bio-ethanol fore places. The one you have with at least 1,5 lye and filled with fire wood. Burns 5 hours and gives 3,5 kw heat
    Not like a real fire but a comforting warmth in the Middle, between floor and ceiling. Spreads easily in 50m2 in a very massive ventilated room! Ps paying 60€ voor 12 liters is absurd! At least 36’liters. But yeah nice vlog! Thank you so much for all your efforts humor and hard work in all these vlogs. 🙌🏼

  • @Bobrogers99
    @Bobrogers99 Před rokem +2

    I don't think that ethanol generates enough heat to be helpful in heating the room. Propane is a better fuel if you had a way to vent it.

    Bioethanol is not suitable for heating, its just decoration because of its very low energy density. To produce 1KW of heating force bioethanol is 10x more expensive than oil or gas and up to 20x more than wood or pellets.

    Not sure I would want to sit in a room with a wood burner that doesn’t put out heat but is just pretty to look at. You’re still sitting in a cold room. To be honest, I wouldn’t go in there at all. There isn’t a chance of converting it into something that generates heat? Hope you find a functional solution.

    @richardjones5255 Před rokem

    As a point source, to warm a small pan, ethanol is OK. Yes, to a roaring log fire, or even a less roaring log fire in a closely designed, wood burner, that extracts every last BTU. I fear you are doomed with this venture. Remember, almost every fire not only produced gases, they also produce water vapour, that ideal should be vented to avoid damp.

      Glass doesn’t radiate heat in a wood burner, the cast iron of the burner does. The glass is there to seal the burner so you can control the airflow to the fire which doesn’t count in this case as the control is done via the lid opening/closing on the ethanol reservoir
