Accessories for ethanol fireplaces, fire tables and fire pits
Accessories are the supporting pieces that help an ethanol fire feature work better in real life. In this category, that usually means covers, screens, wind guards, decorative media and related add-ons that improve protection, usability or overall finish.
They may not be the headline act, but they often determine whether the installation feels polished and practical once the fire feature is actually in use. That’s especially true outdoors, where wind, weather and downtime all have opinions.
Which accessories are actually worth adding?
Protective covers
Best for outdoor fireplaces, fire pit tables and portable fire features that need protection between uses. A good cover helps reduce moisture, debris and UV wear, especially in exposed patios and poolside spaces.
Glass screens and wind guards
Best when you want a steadier flame and an extra layer of separation around the fire. Glass barriers help manage wind and add a little insurance against curious hands getting too close.
Decorative media and finishing pieces
Best for softening the look of the burner and making the finished fire feature feel more intentional. Media like fire glass or decorative accents can shift the look from purely functional to properly finished.
Cover plates and surface conversion pieces
Best when you want the fire feature to stay useful when it is not lit. These pieces can turn part of a fire table back into usable surface area and make the installation more practical between burns.
What the right accessories change
The best accessories solve a specific problem. A cover protects against weather, a wind guard helps the flame behave in breezier settings and a cover plate gives a fire table more function when the burner is off.
That’s why this category matters more than it first appears. The right add-ons can extend the life of the piece, improve the way it fits into the space and make the fire feature feel more considered overall.
Pro tips: choosing fireplace and fire table accessories wisely
- Start with the accessories that solve real problems Covers, screens and wind protection usually matter more than decorative extras, especially on exposed patios and rooftops.
- Match the accessory to the exact fire feature The right screen, cover or plate depends on burner shape, table size and installation type. Close enough tends to be a fast path to annoyance.
- Think about the fire feature when it is off A cover plate or protective cover can make a big difference in how usable, tidy and weather-resistant the piece feels between uses.
- Use decorative media to finish, not distract A little texture around the flame can improve the overall look, but too much starts to feel like the design equivalent of over-seasoning.
- Keep compatibility in mind If an accessory interacts directly with the burner or flame area, make sure it is intended for that model and installation rather than assuming all ethanol fire features work the same way.
Current assortment and compatibility
Our current assortment in this category centers on accessories and compatible add-ons for ethanol fireplaces, fire tables and related fire features. That includes practical pieces that help protect, stabilize or visually finish the installation rather than changing how the fire feature fundamentally works.
As product ranges evolve, exact accessory types and compatible models may shift, so it is always worth checking fit before buying. Accessories are usually most useful when they are quietly correct, not creatively approximate.
Frequently Asked Questions – Fireplace and fire table accessories
Which accessory should I buy first?
Start with the accessory that solves the most obvious day-to-day issue. For outdoor pieces, that is often a protective cover. In breezier spaces, a glass screen or wind guard may matter more.
If the fire feature already works well but looks unfinished, decorative media or a cover plate may be the better next step. Prioritizing by actual use tends to work better than buying everything at once and hoping the pile becomes a strategy.
Are glass screens and wind guards mainly for safety or for looks?
Both, but their practical value comes first. A glass screen or wind guard can help stabilize the flame in breezier settings and add a protective barrier around the fire, especially in spaces where people naturally lean in or gather closely.
They also tend to make the whole installation look more polished, particularly on modern fire tables and open fireplace designs. So yes, they look good, but they are not just there to be pretty.
How do I know if an accessory is compatible with my fire feature?
The safest approach is to match the accessory to the specific fire table, fireplace or burner model it was designed for. Size, burner placement, table shape and clearance requirements can all affect whether an accessory fits properly and works as intended.
If the accessory sits near the flame or interacts with the burner area, compatibility matters even more. This is one of those moments where improvisation tends to become a story you did not want to have.
