"I have been using them for 3 years for multiple projects and would not go to somebody else. They also built a cabin in the woods. It was built 10 miles from the road so it was like carrying all the stuff up the path. They also did the garage and remodeling of the house, mostly kitchen and a little bit of plumbing work in the bathroom. I am still using them and I would be using them for the next thing that will be coming up too."

A liter of bioethanol costs $11 and burns for around four hours, making it cost around $2.75 per hour to keep your bioethanol fireplace running. For comparison, natural gas costs around $0.50 per hour, and propane costs around $1.60 per hour.

How much it costs you to run your bioethanol fireplace largely depends on how often you use it. Hypothetically speaking, if you run your fireplace for four hours a week year-round, you’ll go through one liter of biofuel per week or about $570 per year to run the fireplace.

Most repairs take 2-6 hours, but extensive fixes or part replacements may require additional time.

Chimney sweeps perform three levels of inspections:

Level One: This is a basic annual inspection, often a visual inspection during cleaning, which is the most affordable.
Level Two: This stage is ideal when selling or buying a home as it involves an inspection of the attic and roof, which is moderately priced.
Level Three: This is a very thorough inspection that should take place after major storms or earthquakes, which is the most costly type of inspection.
