Walk into a room with elegant overstuffed furniture and gleaming, polished dark wood in the side tables and book cases. Now envision right in the middle of that room a freestanding fireplace, the fire itself encased in a huge hurricane lamp. The base of the fireplace is a stone hearth. People are standing around the room in clusters talking, holding cocktail glasses. There is only one word for such a room: elegant and memorable. Just being in the room makes the occupants feel welcomed.

How can a freestanding fireplace not have a chimney? Why isn't the air smoky and irritating to the throat and lungs? You'll be surprised to know that the flame is from biofuel and the air is pollution-free. The fireplace adds enormously to the atmosphere of this room. Think how boring it would be without that dazzling fireplace centerpiece.

Now envision what you can do with one of these fireplaces in your home. If you don't lean toward a center-of-the-room placement, how about on a wall? The development of ventless bio-fuel fireplaces has transformed room décor. The ability to get the fire out of the stationary traditional fireplace with its chimney and hearth and into other parts of the room or other rooms of the house opens up all kinds of possibilities.

You know how much a fireplace enhances an atmosphere. You also know how messy a wood fireplace can be and how much smoke can escape into the air you must breathe in the room with the fire even if the hamper is tightly closed.

The designs on these new-fangled fireplaces are beautiful, and there's a very wide range. If you want formal, there are many designs. If you want casual or rustic, you can find those also. This is truly a new era in home decorating.

If you desire the look of the old-fashioned fireplace, no problem. You can either install a burner in an existing one or if you don't have one, this is a good time to create one with a beautiful mantel and hearth. These are also available in just about every design you can envision. For example, picture a custom-designed Italian marble mantel with intricate carving. Or how about a modern, sleek stone look? Remember dark carved wood mantels you've seen in courtly old houses? You can recreate that in your own home if you wish. And the place you choose to put it is up to you.

Do you want your fireplace in your living room? How about in the dining room? Nothing adds elegance and warmth when you have guests for dinner like a fireplace with a glowing fire licking around logs (artificial, of course).

The new ventless bio-fuel fireplaces have opened up many opportunities for enhancing your lifestyle and the beauty and appeal of your home. Just go online and google "biofuel fireplaces" and you'll be surprised at what you'll find.
