  If the pilot sparks but doesn't light on your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace, first, ensure that the incoming gas line ball valve is open and that the inlet pressure is within acceptable limits (not exceeding 13” W.C. (32.3mb)). Also, check if you are out of propane gas and fill the tank if necessary. Finally, make sure the air shutter opening is free of any obstructions like lint.

  If the pilot light is on but the burner won't turn on in your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace, inspect all wires to ensure they have good, tight connections and are installed exactly as specified.

Why does the main burner go out but pilot stays on in Napoleon B36NTRE?
- K
  Kelly RayAug 26, 2025
  If the main burner goes out but the pilot stays on in your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace, first, try turning up the pilot flame, as it might not be large enough or engulfing the thermopile. If that doesn't work, consider replacing the pilot assembly. Also, check the thermopile connection to the valve, clean it, and reconnect it. If the problem persists, the thermopile or valve may need replacement.

How to fix a Napoleon Indoor Fireplace when the pilot will not light?

  Robin MartinAug 28, 2025
  If the pilot light will not light on your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace, verify the sensor and ignitor wires are correctly connected to the module, ensuring they are not reversed. Check for any loose connections, electrical shorts, or grounding to metal objects. If these steps don't resolve the issue, turn the ON/OFF switch to “OFF,” remove the igniter wire, and test the ignitor terminal for a spark. Also, ensure the spark gap is 1/8” (3.2mm) and that the transformer is correctly installed and providing between 6.2 and 7.0 volts A.C. If power is off, check the batteries. Remove and reinstall the wiring harness, troubleshoot with a simple ON/OFF switch, and ensure the valve and pilot assemblies are properly grounded.

Why does my Napoleon Indoor Fireplace spark and pilot lights, but main burner won't light?
- J
  Jennifer LeblancAug 31, 2025
  If your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace continues to spark and the pilot lights, but the main burner doesn't ignite, check for short or loose connections in the sensor rod, ensuring they are tight and not grounding out to any metal. Verify the flame is engulfing the sensor rod to increase flame rectification and that the correct pilot orifice is installed. Clean the sensor rod with a fine emery cloth or synthetic scrub pad to remove any contamination. Also, ensure good grounding between the pilot assembly and gas valve and verify the ceramic insulator around the sensor rod is intact.

Why is the main burner flame blue and lazy on my Napoleon B36NTRE Indoor Fireplace?
- D
  Donna JacksonSep 2, 2025
  If the main burner flame on your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace is blue, lazy, and transparent, it might be due to a blockage in the vent. Remove any blockage. In extreme conditions, ice buildup may occur and should be removed. To prevent recurrence, insulate vent lengths in unheated spaces with a mylar sleeve. Also, check the venting system parameters (seal, length, rise, etc.) for any compromises.

  If the flames on your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace are very aggressive, check if the door is ajar and tighten the door clamps if applicable. If the venting action is too great, restrict the vent exit with a restrictor plate. See the 'RESTRICTING VENTS' section for more details.

What causes white or grey film to form on my Napoleon B36NTRE Indoor Fireplace?
- C
  Cindy MurraySep 8, 2025
  If a white or grey film forms on your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace, it's likely sulphur from the fuel being deposited on the glass, logs, or combustion chamber surfaces. Clean the glass regularly, referring to the 'CARE OF GLASS' section, and remember not to clean the glass when it's hot, as deposits may permanently mark the glass if not cleaned off regularly.
