Features

🔥 Transform Your Existing Fireplace

The ScandiFlames Kingston is designed to breathe new life into traditional fireplaces. Rather than leaving an unused wood burning stove or open fireplace empty, you can introduce a real bioethanol flame with this compact, freestanding insert.

Its dimensions of 46 cm wide, 32 cm deep and 29 cm high make it suitable for a range of fireplace openings, although you should always measure your available space and check the manufacturer's clearance requirements before purchasing.

Finished in black, the Kingston has a clean, understated appearance that works well with both traditional interiors and modern living spaces. It offers the familiar charm of a fireplace with the convenience of bioethanol fuel.

✨ Enjoy Real Flames Without a Chimney

One of the key benefits of the Kingston is that it does not require a chimney or flue. This makes it a potential solution for a suitable existing fireplace where the chimney has been sealed off or is no longer in use.

The manual bioethanol burner creates a real flame without burning wood. Under normal operation, it does not produce wood smoke, soot or ash, helping to avoid the mess associated with a traditional wood fire.

However, bioethanol combustion produces carbon dioxide and water vapour, so adequate ventilation is still essential. The Kingston should only be used indoors in a suitable room with a minimum volume of 45 m³, following all manufacturer guidance.

🌡️ Comfortable Heat and an Adjustable Flame

The Kingston delivers a maximum heat output of 2 kW, providing supplementary warmth alongside its attractive flame display. It is a practical choice for adding atmosphere and some extra warmth to a suitable living space, rather than replacing your home's main heating system.

The flame width is approximately 24 cm, creating a focused fire effect within your existing fireplace. Its adjustable burner allows you to control the flame size using the supplied adjustment tool, which moves the metal plate above the burner opening.

You can adjust the flame to suit your preferred ambience and influence fuel consumption and burn time. Always make adjustments according to the manufacturer's instructions and never touch the burner while it is hot or lit.

⏱️ Up to 6 Hours of Burn Time

The ScandiFlames Kingston comes with a manual bioethanol burner with a capacity of 1.5 litres. A full filling can provide up to 6 hours of burn time, depending on the flame setting and operating conditions.

Fuel consumption is approximately 0.25 litres per hour. Using a smaller flame may help extend the burn time, while a larger flame will generally consume fuel more quickly.

The burner operates without electricity, batteries or a remote control. This straightforward manual design keeps the setup simple and avoids the need for a power supply.

Only add the amount of fuel you intend to use, as bioethanol can evaporate over time. Never refill the burner while it is lit or hot. Allow it to cool completely before refilling and follow the supplied safety instructions.

🏡 Simple Freestanding Design

The Kingston is designed for straightforward placement inside a suitable existing fireplace. It does not require permanent installation, a chimney connection or an electrical supply.

Before use, make sure the fireplace opening is large enough, the insert is stable and the surrounding area meets the manufacturer's clearance requirements. Do not assume that every old wood burning stove or fireplace is suitable for a bioethanol insert.

The Kingston is intended for indoor use only. Ensure the room meets the minimum volume requirement of 45 m³ and has adequate ventilation. Always consult the user manual before lighting the burner for the first time.

Safety

🛡️ Safety and Care

The Kingston uses real flames, so careful operation is essential. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and observe these precautions:

• Use indoors only in a suitable, adequately ventilated room of at least 45 m³.

• Keep children, pets and combustible materials at a safe distance from the flames.

• Never leave a burning fireplace unattended.

• Never refill the burner while it is lit or hot. Allow it to cool completely before refuelling.

• Use only the recommended bioethanol fuel.

• Keep the burner opening clear and do not place unapproved objects near the flame.

• Avoid draughts that could disturb the flame.

• Handle, clean or move the insert only when it is completely cool.

• Follow all manufacturer requirements for positioning and clearance from surrounding materials.

Although no chimney is required, ventilation remains necessary because burning bioethanol produces carbon dioxide and water vapour. Refer to the supplied manual for the complete safety and maintenance instructions.
