BEV® TECHNOLOGY – GAME-CHANGING INNOVATION IN PREMIUM PROJECTS
What is a fireplace BEV Technology?
BEV Technology – Burning Ethanol Vapours is an advanced and patented ethanol vapour combustion technology developed for modern fireplaces by Planika’s team of international engineers.
Fireplaces with BEV technology are a perfect solution for projects with real fire, without the need for chimney installation or air supply. They do not require the venting of exhaust gases, which allows for arrangement freedom. They do not generate smoke, soot, or ash, and can be placed almost anywhere, including media walls under the TV, room divider in glazed or unglazed option. We recently created the world’s first outdoor models with BEV technology. Planika has been taking projects with fire to the next level for years.
Thanks to the complete combustion process, fireplaces with BEV technology do not release any harmful substances into the environment it is therefore possible to have a fire line in passive houses, in ecological estates and in cities with restrictions.
no ash
BEV fireplaces in modern interior design
Fireplaces with BEV Technology adapt to the project, not the project to the technology, so check out the BEV configurator now and tailor it to your needs. Have a real fire on a higher floor or even on a yacht.

BEV® TECHNOLOGY – HOW DOES IT WORK?
BEV Automatic fireplaces with fully controlled burning process
The entire combustion process is automated and controlled by a microprocessor. The cool fuel is contained in a hermetically sealed tank. When switched on, the device draws only a small, necessary portion of fuel from this tank and transports it to the vapour generator. There, a small amount of biofuel is heated until it reaches a temperature where it turns into vapour, which is distributed throughout the burner and then burned.
The fire has no direct contact with the liquid fuel. Thanks to the insulated fuel tank, cooling fans and combustion chamber, the ethanol fuel temperature is always low and safe.
A microprocessor communicates with a number of sensors inside the fireplace and controls its entire operation. The fireplace informs you of any activity with an audible signal and a message on the mobile app. Convenient remote control of the fireplace eliminates any risk of human error.
MULTIPLE SAFETY SENSORS AND ALERTS
We developed our fireplaces based on a technology and structure which provide the highest level of safety for its users. This meant considering every possibility of a human error that could occur during the heating or refilling process.
To make sure our fireplaces are safe to use in every conditions, we equipped them with multiple safety sensors. This way, any possible malfunctions can be effectively identified. In case an error is detected, the sensors send a signal to the microprocessor to turn off the device. The user is additionally warned with a sound signals and an information sent out to their mobile app.
- seismic activity and tilts sensor
- 3 temperature sensors
- 3 spillage sensors
- fuel level sensor
- 2 overfill sensors
- device lock
- internal pump time protection
- watchdog system in the microprocessor
- limit switch in the dc socket
AUTOMATIC REFILL SYSTEM
HOW TO REFILL PLANIKA BEV FIREPLACE?
The Automatic Refill System, makes the refuelling effortless and efficient, eliminating any problem which may occur during manual refilling. The dedicated pump – when connected – automatically fills up the tank with a bioethanol fuel. Once the tank is completely filled, the sensor alerts the microprocessor to stop the process. The level of fuel can be checked in the mobile app at any moment. This way, the risk of overfilling and fuel spillage have been successfully eliminated.
