Why does the circuit breaker trip when I turn on my Dimplex Indoor Fireplace?

  Paul BrownAug 20, 2025
  If the circuit breaker trips or a fuse blows when you turn on your Dimplex Indoor Fireplace, it could be due to a short in the unit's wiring, in which case you should trace the wiring. Another cause could be that additional appliances are exceeding the current rating of the circuit breaker or fuse. Try plugging the unit into another outlet or installing it on a dedicated 15 amp circuit.

  Joseph GrayAug 22, 2025
  If your Dimplex Indoor Fireplace turns on and off by itself, it might be due to a few reasons. The remote control may have a similar frequency to other remotes nearby, or there could be radio frequency disturbance from outside sources. In either case, try changing the frequency of the remote control. It's also possible that the Remote Control Receiver is defective, so consider replacing it and initializing the Remote Control and Receiver.
