Jel Fuel Fireplace with Bookcase, No Chimney Required
If you like the idea of a warm, crackling fire, but your home didn’t come with a chimney, you could pick up an electric fireplace or perhaps a “jel fuel” fireplace.
“Add the beauty and romance of a crackling fire anytime, anyplace, without the hassles or mess caused by soot, creosote and smoke.”
These units are vent-free, portable, and require no hook up. They burn cans of alcohol-based jel fuel, which you can buy in cases (it’s about $50 for a 12 pack, and each can should burn 2-3 hours–just right for an evening’s entertaining).
The fireplace shown here is available at Plow & Hearth and comes with a surround, mantel, and bookcase, making it look like a built-in piece of furniture.
Before buying, you may want to do some jel fuel research though, as some people have found the odor irritating, and others have complained of headaches when burning the substance.
