Gel Fuel for Fireplaces, Designed with Care

Gel Fuel: The heart of a HearthCabinet alcohol burning fireplace is our unique single-use, pre-filled, alcohol gel fuel cartridge.

• Our patented eco-friendly alcohol gel fuel cartridge ensures safe use and a brilliant real, roaring and crackling flame.
• There is no smoke or odor like a wood or gas fireplace.
• The fuel is a clean-burning mixture of isopropyl alcohol and water, with a little thickening agent, and is similar to hospital grade hand sanitizers or chaffing fuels.
• Our alcohol gel fuel cartridges are a far cleaner alternative to wood or gas and do not require venting.
• As lively as a wood fire in appearance, like a log, each cartridge lasts approximately 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• Lit with a long butane lighter, cartridges can be extinguished at any time with supplied snuffer plates or left to go out on their own.
• The remaining empty aluminum cartridge can be tossed in the recycling bin.
• While not meant to be a heating source, HearthCabinet Ventless Decorative Fireplaces do give off heat, and since no chimney or venting is required, all of the heat remains in the room.
• Each gel fuel cartridge provides 5,000 BTU’s of heat for a maximum of 10,000 BTU’s when using two cartridges at once, side-by-side for a wider and taller flame.
• Gel cartridges are unscented but are also available in pine, vanilla, and cinnamon.
• Cartridges come in cases of 8, are purchased online, and shipped anywhere in North America.
