When you want to furnish the outdoors of a hospitality structure or property, it is strongly recommended to create a “focal point” in the design, i.e., the centre of a composition and a point in which to bring guests and owners together. Identifying this focus, choosing the style and meeting the customer’s demands, gives character to the whole area, making the space more beautiful, useful and of course, special and unique.
To create focus in an outdoor area, there are a few options available: cooking areas, conservatories, pools, but there is one in particular that is increasingly requested: a fireplace.
Ideal to warm up a chilly summer evening, while creating a luxurious ambience, as well as marvellous and of course, perfect for extending the season for outdoor living. The fireplace we can offer is a brilliant solution if you want to add something unexpected yet useful to your design project.
Furnishing outdoor spaces with a fireplace will make outdoor entertaining for guests possible for longer periods in every season, as well as adding a certain relaxed feel that is both intimate and very much more luxurious.
Outdoor fireplaces are also splendid decorative features when it comes to design, and they can easily become a focal point for any outdoor furnishing project.

The beauty and comfort of fireplace from DFN can adapt to any area, outdoors or inside, with its avant-garde design and eco-friendly credentials, thanks to totally biological, renewable fuels and to the toxic-emission-free flames that do not need flues or vents.
How does a bioethanol fireplace work?
Biofireplaces are an elegant means with which to furnish a home without polluting and can be used as design features to enhance the environment with their rich, charming appeal.
The bioethanol fireplace consists of a steel tank to contain the bioethanol, a kind of plant-based alcohol that emits steam, carbon dioxide and warmth.
To operate the fireplace, pour the liquid into the burner near the tank, which serves to ignite and regulate the flame.
Bioethanol is a completely organic ethyl alcohol and is made by processing biomass from waste or by fermenting plant-based biomass with a high glucose content, such as maize, barley or sugar beet.
Using a natural, eco-friendly fuel means that biofireplaces do not emit toxic or harmful fumes. To put out the fire, there is a flame suppressor provided.
The strong point of the bioethanol fireplace is the actual combustion that takes place in the small exposed chamber: bioethanol fireplaces are able to reproduce the atmosphere of a traditional fireplace, since it has visible flames, and it can be shielded by protection for better safety.
Having a garden fireplace means creating a more welcoming, comfy atmosphere during cooler evenings.
