BEV® TECHNOLOGY – HOW DOES IT WORK?

Automatic Fireplaces with Fully Controlled Burning Process

The entire combustion process is automated and controlled by a microprocessor. The cool fuel is contained in a hermetically sealed tank. When switched on, the device draws only a small, necessary portion of fuel from this tank and transports it to the vapour generator. There, a small amount of biofuel is heated until it reaches a temperature where it turns into vapour, which is distributed throughout the burner and then burned.
 

The fire has no direct contact with the liquid fuel. Thanks to the insulated fuel tank, cooling fans and combustion chamber, the ethanol fuel temperature is always low and safe.
 

A microprocessor communicates with a number of sensors inside the fireplace and controls its entire operation. The fireplace informs you of any activity with an audible signal and a message on the mobile app. Convenient remote control of the fireplace eliminates any risk of human error.

MULTIPLE SAFETY SENSORS AND ALERTS

Planika developed their fireplaces based on technology and structure that provide the highest level of safety for users. This involved considering every possibility of human error during the heating or refilling process. To ensure their fireplaces are safe to use in all conditions, they equipped them with multiple safety sensors. These sensors effectively identify any possible malfunctions. If an error is detected, the sensors send a signal to the microprocessor to turn off the device. Additionally, the user is warned with sound signals and an alert sent to their mobile app.

AUTOMATIC REFILLING SYSTEM

Planika was the first to introduce the automatic refilling system for bioethanol fireplaces. An automatic pump allows you to refill the fireplace quickly and effortlessly. All it takes in connecting the pump with an integrated panel and putting the other pipe to the bottle with fuel and pushing the button. Once the tank is full, the pump switches off automatically. This protects the user and the fireplace from any accidental spillage or overfilling.

WITH A SIMPLE TOUCH, YOU CAN GAUGE THE FUEL STATUS AND MODIFY THE FLAME’S INTENSITY

INNOVATIVE TOUCH PANEL CONTROL

One of the features of the FLA4 and FLA4 FLOGS fireplace is its modern touch panel control. This intuitive interface provides users with the capability to effortlessly adjust and monitor the fireplace’s settings. With a simple touch, you can gauge the fuel status, modify the flame’s intensity, and even set an automatic shut-off timer for added peace of mind.
 

Concerned about the safety of your little ones? The child lock option ensures that curious fingers won’t accidentally ignite the fireplace. For those who desire a complete lockdown of the control panel, the device lock offers an added layer of security. These enhancements not only elevate user convenience but also prioritize safety, marrying innovation with practicality in the FLA4 and FLA4 FLOGS design.
 

The FLA4 and FLA4 FLOGS fireplace can be operated effortlessly using a smartphone or any mobile device. A custom-made application , available for both Apple and Android, provides seamless control and convenience.

 

PLANIKA BIOETHANOL FIREPLACES WITH BEV® TECHNOLOGY PROVIDE A NET ZERO COMBUSTION

zero net t

NET ZERO FIREPLACE

Planika bioethanol fireplaces with BEV Technology provide a net zero combustion, meaning they produce only a minimal amounts of CO2 that can be compared to what one person exhales. Bioethanol which fuels Planika automatic fireplaces is made of corn, wheat, or potatoes. These plants absorb CO2, which contributes to its continuous circulation in nature. Thanks to this, these innovative fireplaces can be used in cities that regulate or prohibit emission of fossil fuels.

Interior Finishing

Original | Triangle | Round | Design | Standard

Within the Metalfire range of interior finishes, the cast iron lamellas 'Original', 'Triangle' and 'Round' stand out for their aesthetic refinement. Each version reflects a different interpretation of minimalist design. The 'Original' variant brings vertical ribs in a classic, clean rhythm. 'Triangle', with its angular profile, adds a graphic element to the fire image. 'Round' contrasts with soft, rounded shapes that create a harmonious interplay with the flame.
 

What unites these variants is the rhythmic play of lines that consistently offers architectural added value, even when the fireplace is not lit. These cast iron interior finishes function as a fully-fledged design element within any interior concept.
 

Alongside these distinctly characterful options, Metalfire also offers 'Standard' (flat steel plate) and 'Design' (asymmetrical pattern), ideal for those seeking simplicity or a subtle tension in the design.
 

All finishes are available within the URBAN BEV® range and can be perfectly matched to the rest of the fireplace concept.

THE COMMON THREAD IS THE ELEGANT RHYTHM IN BOTH SURFACES, CREATING AN ENGAGING DIALOGUE WITH THE WARM GLOW OF THE FIRE

Finishing Colours

Black | Terracotta | Maple Gold

 

The elegant black standard finish remains a timeless staple within the Metalfire offering. This classic coating brings a sense of calm and refinement to any interior. Yet design evolves — and Metalfire now introduces two new color variants: 'Terracotta' and 'Maple Gold'.
 

With these additions, Metalfire offers architects and interior designers greater freedom to visually integrate the fireplace into the overall concept. 'Terracotta' adds a warm, earthy touch, while 'Maple Gold'  introduces a subtle glow and sophistication — ideal for projects where texture and material expression take center stage.
 

These finishes are available within the URBAN BEV® collection and can also be applied to framing options and bespoke fireplace concepts.
 

In this way, each fireplace becomes not just a source of warmth, but a personal architectural statement.

THE EXPANDED COLOR SELECTION IS AVAILABLE AS WELL AS FOR FINISHING FRAMES AND CUSTOMIZED CONCEPTS, OFFERING EVEN MORE WAYS TO TAILOR THE DESIGN TO INDIVIDUAL TASTES
