BEV® technology in a star-shaped burner

The combustion process is fully automated and managed by a built-in microprocessor. Ethanol is kept in a sealed tank, separate from the flame.

When the fireplace is started, only the exact amount of fuel needed is transferred to the vapor generator, where it is gently heated until it turns into vapor. This vapor is then evenly distributed and burned inside the burner, meaning the flame never touches the liquid fuel directly.

The insulated tank, cooling fans, and combustion chamber keep the ethanol temperature low and secure at all times.

Multiple sensors continuously monitor the device, sending data to the microprocessor, which oversees the entire operation.

BEV® is complemented by advanced safety sensors including a Child Lock and Shut-Off Timer ensuring both comfort and peace of mind.

Control & Operation

Operation of the Pillar fireplace is intuitive and effortless. You can manage the flame height and settings with a handy remote control or a dedicated mobile app, while the integrated touch display gives you direct access to all functions. This combination ensures both convenience and precision in everyday use.

Automatic refilling system

Planika pioneered the use of an automatic refilling solution in bioethanol fireplaces. With the help of a dedicated pump, the tank can be filled quickly and without effort. Simply connect the pump to the control panel, place the hose into the fuel bottle, and press the button.

The pump automatically stops once the tank reaches the right level, preventing overfilling and eliminating the risk of spills. This ensures both user safety and reliable fireplace operation.
