Skip Propane Tanks with This Bio-Ethanol Concrete Fire Table
When you're designing outdoor spaces that need to look premium and operate simply, propane creates problems. Tanks run out mid-service. Refills require coordination. Storage eats up space. The Elementi Sydney solves this with bio-ethanol fuel that burns clean, stores compact, and delivers the same flickering flame your property needs β indoors or out.
Key Features
- Bio-ethanol fuel β No propane tanks, no gas lines, no smoke or ash to clean up after service
- Indoor/outdoor versatility β CSA and CE certified for both environments so you can deploy where needed
- Dual-use design β Includes aluminum lid that converts this into a coffee table when flame isn't needed
- Push-button ignition β Staff operates it in seconds without matches or waiting for gas flow
- 9-hour burn time β 15L capacity means you're not refilling multiple times per shift
- Hand-finished concrete β Reinforced construction that holds up to commercial use while maintaining premium appearance
Perfect For
Commercial Properties & Hospitality Venues
Restaurants, hotels, and event spaces benefit from flame ambiance without propane logistics. The bio-ethanol system eliminates tank exchanges and vendor coordination while staff operates it with simple push-button controls.
Luxury Residential Installations
Homeowners get the same commercial-grade engineering that hospitality properties use worldwide. The dual-use design with aluminum lid keeps the piece functional year-round as either a fire feature or coffee table.
How the Bio-Ethanol System Eliminates Fire Feature Logistics
Traditional propane and wood-burning systems create operational friction. The Sydney's bio-ethanol burner removes these pain points through three integrated elements:
- Liquid fuel storage β Ethanol stores in compact containers that require no special ventilation or outdoor placement like propane tanks
- Clean combustion process β Burns completely with only water vapor and CO2 output so there's no smoke staining, no ash cleanup, no chimney requirements
- Self-contained system β No gas lines, no electrical connections, no permanent installation requirements means you position the table anywhere and relocate as needed
This combination means properties deploy fire ambiance in spaces where propane or wood options would require construction, permitting, or ongoing vendor relationships.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bio-Ethanol Fire Tables
Q: How does bio-ethanol compare to propane for heat output?
A: The Sydney delivers 27,000 BTUs, which provides comparable warmth to propane fire tables in the same size range. The difference is that bio-ethanol burns cleaner without producing smoke or requiring ventilation systems.
Q: Where do I source bio-ethanol fuel and how much does it cost?
A: Bio-ethanol is available through home improvement stores, specialty fireplace retailers, and online suppliers. The 15L capacity provides approximately 9 hours of burn time, and cost per hour is comparable to propane when accounting for the elimination of tank rental fees and delivery charges.
Q: Can this be used indoors safely?
A: Yes, the Sydney is CSA and CE certified for indoor use. Bio-ethanol produces only water vapor and CO2 during combustion, similar to burning candles. However, like any open flame, it requires adequate room ventilation and should not be operated in small enclosed spaces.
Q: How long does it take to refill and does it need to cool completely?
A: The owner's manual requires waiting 60 minutes after extinguishing before refilling to ensure the unit is at room temperature. Refilling through the dedicated fill point takes approximately 2-3 minutes using the included funnel.
Q: What maintenance does the concrete body require?
A: The glass-fiber reinforced concrete is hand-finished and requires no special maintenance. Wipe spills immediately if bio-ethanol contacts the surface. The material naturally develops minor variations in texture and small surface imperfections that are characteristic of cast concrete and do not affect performance.

What's Covered
Elementi warranties protect against defects in parts and workmanship under normal use. If a covered defect occurs during the warranty period, Elementi will repair or replace the affected product at their discretion.
Important: Replacement parts are provided at no charge, but return shipping to your original place of purchase is the customer's responsibility. Freight, removal, and reinstallation costs are not covered.
Critical Installation Requirement
All gas lines must be installed by a licensed gas fitter. This is non-negotiable - improper gas installation voids the warranty entirely and creates serious safety risks.
What's Not Covered
This warranty doesn't cover:
- Shipping damage - Inspect your delivery carefully and note any damage immediately
- Normal wear and weathering - Fading, dings, dents, scratches from regular outdoor use
- Decorative rock - Lava rock and other decorative media aren't covered
- Improper installation or modifications - Any repairs or changes not performed by Elementi
- Abuse or misuse - Damage from accidents, neglect, or use beyond normal parameters
- Minor surface imperfections - Small chips, non-structural hairline cracks, water staining
- Consequential damages - Liability is limited to the original purchase price
Understanding Handcrafted Concrete (GFRC)
Elementi fire features use glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC), which is hand-cast and hand-finished. This means every piece is unique - and certain characteristics are normal, not defects:
Color Variation: Each unit may vary up to 15% in color from display photos or between pieces. This is inherent to the casting process.
Texture Differences: Uneven texture or pattern across the surface is typical of hand-finished concrete.
Surface Characteristics: Small holes or pits caused by air or water bubbles during casting are normal traits of cast concrete.
Natural Weathering: Over time, outdoor exposure will cause gradual color changes and patina development. This is expected and not covered under warranty.
Think of these characteristics like natural stone - the variations are part of what makes each piece authentic, not mass-produced.
