What to do if the Insignia NS-PFT30BK03 Outdoor Fireplace burner won't light using a match?

  If your Insignia Outdoor Fireplace burner isn't lighting with a match, it could be due to several reasons. First, check that the propane tank valve is open and the regulator is securely attached. Also, the propane tank might be low or empty, so try replacing it. If there's a propane tank leak, close the valve, wait five minutes for the gas to clear. Additionally, ensure the coupling nut and regulator are securely connected, tightening by hand only. There might also be an obstruction in the gas flow, so clear the burner/valve and check for any bent or kinked hoses. Finally, a frosted propane tank (wait until it warms up), or the control knob not being in the ON position (turn the knob to ON) could be the reason.

  A sudden drop in gas flow or flame height in your Insignia Outdoor Fireplace indicates that the overfill prevention device on the propane tank may have been activated. To resolve this: 1. Turn the control knob to OFF. 2. Wait 30 seconds, then relight your fire table. 3. If the flames remain low, reset the overfill prevention device: * Turn the control knob OFF. * Turn the LP gas tank valve to CLOSED. * Disconnect the regulator. * Turn the control knob to HIGH. * Wait one minute. * Turn the control knob to OFF. * Reconnect the regulator, ensuring connections are secure, but do not fully open the valve. * Light your fire table.

Why is the burner flame low on my Insignia NS-PFT30BK03 Outdoor Fireplace?

  A low burner flame on your Insignia Outdoor Fireplace can be caused by a few things. The gas pressure might be low, in which case you should turn the tank valve OFF and replace the tank. If the outdoor temperature is below 40º F (4º C) and the tank is less than 1/4 full, using a full tank may solve the issue. Also, make sure the control knob is fully ON by pushing it in and rotating it to your desired heat level.

  A gas odor accompanied by a yellow or orange flame in your Insignia Outdoor Fireplace could stem from a few causes. If it's a new burner, there might be residual oil or solvent from manufacturing; try burning it for 15 minutes. Another cause could be spider webs or insect nests in the burner/valve, so clean the burner/valve. Lastly, ensure the burner/valve is properly aligned, as poor alignment of valve to burner/valve tube can also cause this issue.

  The flame on your Insignia Outdoor Fireplace might be extinguished due to high or gusting winds; avoid using the fire table in such conditions. Another reason could be that you're low on LP gas, so exchange, refill, or replace the propane tank. Also, the excess flow valve might have tripped; refer to the troubleshooting steps for a sudden drop in gas flow or reduced flame height.
