Is A Ventless Fireplace Right For My Home? By: Wes Fernley | - The idea of a fireplace that can be mounted and the wall and produces no smoke ultimately leads people to be a bit wary of ventless fireplaces. They can often think of wood burning fireplaces, and the chore of having it clogged and filling the room with smoke. If there are allergies with anyone in the household, the idea of any fireplace being used in the home will never be entertained. The idea of a warm, beautiful fireplace that doesn't give off fumes seems like science fiction.
A New Way To Decorate Your Home By: Wes Fernley | - There are few things that add to the flavour of a room like a grand fireplace. Picture yourself entering a sleek, elegantly designed room with beautiful furniture, polished wooden side tables and bookcases. Now picture in the center of the room a beautiful hurricane lamp encasing a large, warm fire. Consider the feel and ambience of this room with and without the fire in the center, and you should have a good idea of what a fireplace can bring to a room.
Using Ventless Fireplaces To Keep Your House Warm By: Wes Fernley | - Any Western grown-up who's lived in a snowy area will know the feeling of sitting with the family around a big, warm fireplace. We remember not just the relief from the cold provided, but the smell of the wood burning, and the sounds of the crackling and pops. But nowadays, with a great increase in environmental awareness, the idea of burning trees, one of nature's most important resources, simply to keep ourselves warm seems outdated and environmentally unsound.
Who's Energetic About Saving Energy?

However, washing clothes in cold water saves money because up to 90% of the cost of washing clothes comes from heating water. Changing the thermostat by a degree for 8 hours a day - while homeowners are at work or asleep - saves 2% on heating or cooling. Sealing electric outlets in exterior walls with inexpensive foam gaskets keeps heated or cooled air from l ... Tags:energy, shale, gas, televisions, biofuel
A Revolution In Room Décor By: Wes Fernley | - Walk into a room with elegant overstuffed furniture and gleaming, polished dark wood in the side tables and book cases. Now envision right in the middle of that room a freestanding fireplace, the fire itself encased in a huge hurricane lamp. The base of the fireplace is a stone hearth. People are standing around the room in clusters talking, holding cocktail glasses. There is only one word for such a room: elegant and memorable. Just being in the room makes the occupants feel welcomed.
The Manufacture Of Ethanol By: Wes Fernley | - Actually, although most of us had never heard of ethanol before the crisis in oil and gasoline prices in recent years, humans have been making it for thousands of years. Why is that? Because it's so easy to produce. It can be made from any vegetable source that has enough sugar or ingredients that can be converted into sugar (starch and cellulose, for instance). Sugar cane and sugar beets come to mind. Corn also has starch that can be turned into sugar, but it takes more processing to convert th ...

Exactly What Is Ethanol? By: Wes Fernley | - Actually, ethanol is the same type of alcohol as that found in alcoholic beverages. So can we just keep a jug of vodka in the car in case we run out of gas? Afraid not!
Widely used in Brazil and the United States—much more than in any other part of the world—ethanol in a blend of no more than 10% will work just fine in most cars. In some cities, a 10% blend is mandated. In Brazil, the mandatory blend is 25%.
Do Ventless Fireplaces Really Work? By: Wes Fernley | - Most people are skeptical about these ventless wonders. They remember how often a chimney for a wood-burning fireplace gets clogged and how miserable it makes everyone. If anyone in the house has a compromised breathing system, the consternation is even deeper. It's hard to believe that there can be a fire that gives out warmth and looks inviting without also spewing fumes.
There has been a drive in recent years to find more environmentally friendly fuels and ones available from sustainable sources, and the talk has eventually come around to the amount of pollution we create when we burn wood in our fireplaces or in our outdoor fireplaces or fire pits. What an idea! Ethanol is certainly a better altern ... Tags:fireplace, fire, place, ethanol, biofuel, bio, fuel, burner, natural, gas
