Gel fuel

Gel fuel is also referred to as ethanol fuel or fire gel. It is a smokeless and odorless alternative to wood-burning fireplaces. Gel fuel is a clear, alcohol-based gel that burns for up to three hours. It does not create soot or ash. It only produces a low level of carbon monoxide.

Other fuels

Gel fuel is an innovative and relatively new fuel that is burning without smoke or ash.
