The other night our neighbor and wife were watching TV with the electric fireplace on. All of a sudden flames shot out from behind the TV ( fireplace is below the TV). He ripped the TV off the wall and grabbed the fire extinguisher. It didn't work. He was able to put it out with water before it spread. While checking out the damage he found that it was the remote control unit for the fireplace that had caught on fire.
After telling our group of the problem at morning coffee one guy went back to check his remote control . He found that where the fireplace plugged into the remote control had melted the wires and fused the plug right to the box. He cut the plug off, replaced it and is still using the fireplace minus the remote.
If any of you folks have a remote control for your fireplace please check it.
Do you have any idea what model year these trailers are?
Have a Dimplex fireplace with remote in our 2013 tt.
