What is Bioethanol Fireplace Decoration?
We at bioethanol-fireplace.co.uk carry several types of decoration articles that can be used in all bio ethanol fires. In general, it is necessary to classify them into two categories. The first category is fireplace ornaments, or decorations, which are supposed to make the bioethanol fire visually more beautiful. The second type of decoration is intended to improve the indoor climate.
The first category includes any products such as lights, candles, wood, or stones. These are, as mentioned above, suitable to visually embellish the fireplace to give it a nice design or look.
Products belonging to the second category are any waxes and oils. These are heated and give off a beautiful and natural smell, which helps improve the air in the room.
The decoration can be used for a freestanding bio ethanol fireplace, built-in fireplaces, and others – it only depends on how big the decoration is and how much space there is around the burner in the fireplace. Many wall mounted bio ethanol fireplaces are too small for ceramic decoration, but then you can use the fragrances instead.
For the gas and electric fireplaces there are specific decorations, so if you want decoration for a gas or electric fireplace, then contact us. We can help you find the right decoration for your gas or electric fireplace.

Bioethanol Fireplace - Decorative Wax
Scented wax is, as the name suggests, a small block of wax that gives off a beautiful scent once heated in the bioethanol fireplace. The blocks are available in many different scents and are relatively inexpensive. The range of available fragrances is wide and there is something for every taste. On average a block of 6 cubes costs about £5.
To apply the scented wax, you first have to break off one cube from the block. If you know beforehand that you do not want the fireplace to burn for a long time, you can also simply break off half a piece of the block. This way you can enjoy the fragrant wax for longer.
Once you have broken off some of the wax, the piece must be placed on the burner so that the scent can spread throughout the room. It is important not to place the piece on the biofire when it is already warm, but to let the ethanol fire and wax warm up at the same time. This is achieved by placing the wax on the bioethanol burner before lighting the biofuel fireplace. It is also important that the wax is not placed on the edge of the fireplace or on the fireplace console!
When the bioethanol fire is turned off and cooled down, any excess wax can be easily removed with a cloth and hot water.
Bioethanol Fireplace - Decorative Oil
The second category in the non-visual bioethanol fireplace decoration are the oils. These work similar to wax. When the oil is heated, it releases a beautiful fragrance, which quickly fills the whole room.
Since the scented oil is not in solid form, it cannot simply be placed on the ethanol fireplace. We recommend a fireproof bowl in which the oil can be drizzled. Only a little oil is needed and the whole room will be filled with a beautiful fragrance. Excess oil or oil that has not evaporated can easily be disposed of. There is no danger of burning after cooling down. Another option is to add a few drops of the fragrance directly into the ethanol, and let it burn – then you cannot see the fragrances but only get the nice aroma.
A Large Variety of Scents to Choose From
For both categories, both wax and oil, there are different fragrances. These should, of course, be selected primarily according to individual taste and preference.
Nevertheless, we at bioethanol-fireplace.co.uk have made sure that there are also seasonal scents so that there is something beautiful for you all year round. For example, we recommend a pleasant cinnamon scent for the holiday season. This warms you up immediately and suit the season perfectly. For the summer we recommend a pleasant light lavender scent. It smells immediately like summer and makes you dream of a warm summer day and fresh flowers.
As already mentioned, you and your taste decide which fragrance suits you best. If you need help in making your choice or would like to find out more about the available varieties, we will be happy to provide you with information and helpful tips – so feel free to ask us.
Bought Inferior Ethanol? No Problem, We Have the Solution!
Some fireplaces and open fires can cause bad odour. It is therefore important to consider the degree of purity of the bioethanol fuel before purchasing. The fuel is basically alcohol, produced from biological materials such as corn or sugar cane. The alcohol content of this fuel should ideally be 96.6% to ensure clean burning and minimal odour from the bio ethanol. Odour from an open fire, especially in the living room, can quickly become unpleasant.
Scented waxes and oils are the perfect solution to cover and even neutralise unpleasant odour from the bio ethanol fires.
It is important to note that when using inferior quality fuel, it must not be diluted! If you do so, there is no increased risk of fire from your ethanol fireplace, but the burning or burning behaviour of the deco fireplace will deteriorate immensely.
