Why won't my HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace burner light using the igniter?
- M
  Matthew GreenAug 13, 2025
  There could be several reasons why your HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace burner won't light with the igniter. The LP gas tank valve might be closed (ensure the regulator is securely attached and the valve is open), the LP gas tank could be low or empty (exchange, refill, or replace the tank), or there could be an LP gas leak (close the valve, wait 5 minutes, and check for leaks). Also, the battery might need replacing, the electrode and burners may be wet (wipe them dry), or there may be an issue with the electrode, wiring, or igniter, requiring a replacement part.

What to do if there is a sudden drop in gas flow or reduced flame height in my HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace?

  Kelly GarciaAug 16, 2025
  If you notice a sudden drop in gas flow or reduced flame height in your HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace, the LP gas tank may be empty (exchange, refill, or replace it). Alternatively, the overfilling prevention device may have been activated. To resolve this, turn the control knob to “OFF,” wait 30 seconds, and relight. If the flames are still low, reset the overfilling prevention device by following these steps: 1. Turn control knob to “OFF”. 2. Turn LP gas tank valve to “CLOSED”. 3. Disconnect regulator. 4. Turn control knob to “ON”. 5. Wait one minute. 6. Turn control knob to “OFF”. 7. Reconnect regulator and leak check connections, being careful not to fully open valve. 8. Light outdoor fire table.

Why won't my HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace burner light with a match?

  Robert ClarkAug 21, 2025
  If your HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace burner won't light with a match, it could be due to several reasons. Check if the LP gas tank is empty and exchange, refill, or replace it if needed. Also, check for an LP gas leak (close the valve, wait 5 minutes, and check for leaks). Ensure the coupling nut and regulator are fully connected (tighten by hand only). Look for any obstructions in the gas flow (clear the burner/venturi tube and check for bent or kinked hoses). Make sure the burner is properly engaged with the valve. Finally, inspect the burner/venturi tube for spider webs or insect nests and clean the burner ports if they are clogged or blocked.

Why is the flame yellow or orange on my HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace?
- W
  Wesley WatsonAug 25, 2025
  A yellow or orange flame on your HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace could be due to a few reasons. If it's a new burner, it may have residual manufacturing oils (burn for 15 minutes and reinspect). Spider webs or insect nests in the burner/venturi tube can also cause this (clean the tube). Finally, check the alignment of the valve to the burner/venturi tube and ensure it's properly engaged.

What to do if the flame goes out on my HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace?
- D
  David IngramAug 28, 2025
  If the flame on your HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace keeps going out, it could be due to high or gusting winds (do not use in high winds). Another reason may be that the LP gas is low (exchange, refill, or replace the LP gas tank). Finally, the excess flow valve might have tripped (refer to “Sudden drop in gas flow or reduced flame height.”).

What causes an irregular flame pattern in my HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace?
- M
  Melanie ChambersAug 31, 2025
  An irregular flame pattern in your HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace, where the flame doesn't run the full length of the burner, is due to no gas flow. Exchange, refill, or replace the LP gas tank.

What causes a flashback (fire in venturi/ burner tube(s)) in my HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace?
- L
  Logan HortonSep 4, 2025
  A flashback (fire in venturi/ burner tube(s)) in your HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace is caused by a blockage in the burner and/or burner/venturi tube. Clean the burner and/or burner/venturi tube.

Why does the flame seem to lose heat when burning in cold weather on my HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace?
- M
  Misty RobertsonSep 8, 2025
  If the flame seems to lose heat in cold weather (below 50°F or 10°C) on your HAMPTON BAY Outdoor Fireplace, ice may have built up on the outside of the LP gas tank because the vaporization process is too slow. To resolve this: 1. Turn off the appliance. 2. Replace with a spare LP gas tank. 3. Reconnect the LP gas tank. 4. Check for leaks. 5. Light the fire table.
