East Park chimney service from a local family company

In East Park, an official Orlando neighborhood, an electric fireplace that glows but does not warm the room has a likely explanation. The flame effect and the heater in most electric fireplaces are separate systems, so the flames can look perfect while the heat side has stopped working. Start with the simple checks the owner's manual lists.

Make sure the heat setting is on and not only the flame, that the thermostat is set above the room temperature and that the remote has fresh batteries. Many units have a thermal cutoff that switches the heater off if it overheats, often because dust has built up on the intake or outlet or because something is blocking the grille.

Unplug the unit, let it cool and look for anything in front of the openings, but do not take the unit apart. If the heat still does not come on, or it comes on briefly and stops, the problem may be the heating element, the fan, the thermostat or the control board. A burning smell, a tripping breaker or a unit that buzzes or clicks without starting are reasons to leave it unplugged until it is checked.

Manufacturers such as Dimplex publish troubleshooting steps and parts information for their models, and our technicians work from the documentation for your unit. Have the model and serial number ready if you can find them, usually on a label on the side, back or under a trim panel. We diagnose the fault, tell you whether a part is available and what it costs, and compare that with replacing the unit if the repair does not make sense.
