  A Dimplex Indoor Fireplace heater may emit an odor due to normal operation, particularly when initially turned on. This occurs as the heater burns off dust accumulated during manufacturing or operation. However, a defective heater assembly can also cause this issue, requiring a replacement.

  If the flame in your Dimplex Indoor Fireplace is not bright or not visible, it could be due to burnt light bulbs, so replace them. Loose wiring could also be the cause; check the wiring connections. A defective light harness might also be the problem, so replace the light harness if necessary.

Why does my Dimplex Indoor Fireplace unit turn on and off by itself?

  Carlos WilsonAug 29, 2025
  Your Dimplex Indoor Fireplace might be turning on and off by itself because the remote control has a similar frequency to other remotes in the area; try replacing the remote control. Radio frequency disturbance from outside sources could also be the reason; in this case, replace the remote control and the Remote Control Receiver Kit, where necessary. A defective Remote Control Receiver could also be the culprit; replace the Remote Control Receiver.

  If your Dimplex Indoor Fireplace is making excessive noise when the heater is on, it could be due to a dirty blower assembly. Make sure that the exterior intake louvers and firebox cavity are free of dirt and dust. Another potential cause is a defective heater motor, which would need to be replaced.

  The Dimplex Indoor Fireplace heater might be turning off after a couple of minutes due to a build-up of dirt/dust in the heater assembly. Ensure that exterior intake louvers and the firebox cavity are free of dirt and dust. Alternatively, the heater assembly could be defective. Replace the heater motor if it's not running when heat is activated, or replace the heater elements if the motor is running but heat isn't coming out.
