    Why does the main burner go out but the pilot stays on in my Continental Fireplaces BCDV40-N Indoor Fireplace?
    • G
      gonzalezanthonySep 12, 2025
      If the main burner of your Continental Fireplaces Indoor Fireplace goes out while the pilot stays on, it might be due to several reasons. First, the pilot flame might not be large enough or not engulfing the thermopile, in which case you should turn up the pilot flame. Second, the thermopile connection to the valve may be shorting; try cleaning the connection and reconnecting it. It may also be necessary to replace the pilot assembly or the thermopile/valve.

    Why are the flames too large or too small on my Continental Fireplaces BCDV40-N?
    • O
      obrienjohnAug 21, 2025
      If the flames of your Continental Fireplaces Indoor Fireplace are consistently too large or too small, there could be several causes. You might be out of propane gas, so filling the tank is recommended. Another potential cause is an incorrect spark gap. The spark gap should be 0.150” to 0.175” (5/32” to 11/64” approx.) from the electrode tip and the pilot burner. Also, check that the manual valve is turned on to ensure there is gas at the pilot burner. Finally, the unit might be over-fired or under-fired, so check the pressure readings.

    What to do if the main burner and pilot light go out on my Continental Fireplaces Indoor Fireplace?
    • A
      Amanda ScottAug 23, 2025
      If the main burner and pilot light both go out on your Continental Fireplaces Indoor Fireplace, it could be due to a few reasons. The vent might be blocked, so you should check for any blockages. Alternatively, the vent could be re-circulating; in this case, check the joint seals and installation. Also, the flexible vent might have become disconnected from the appliance, so ensure it is re-attached. Finally, ensure that the cap was replaced.

    • T
      Tracy McdonaldAug 28, 2025
      If you notice carbon being deposited on the glass, logs, or combustion chamber surfaces of your Continental Fireplaces Indoor Fireplace, it could be due to a blocked air shutter. Make sure the air shutter opening is free of lint or other obstructions. Additionally, the flame might be impinging on the logs or combustion chamber, so check that the logs are correctly positioned.

      If the flames of your Continental Fireplaces Indoor Fireplace are very aggressive, it could be because the door is ajar. Make sure the door is tightly sealed. Another reason could be that the venting action is too great, so check to ensure the venting is properly sealed.
