Electric fireplace quits
Our Dimplex electric fireplace quits heating after 5-10 minutes. It won't heat thereafter unless we shut it down for awhile and then restart it where it will run for another few minutes and will stop...

Our dealer says they ran it up to 90 degrees inside and there is nothing wrong. Yet we run the unit and it won't run more than a few minutes. I think it has a faulty thermostat but the dealer says no it's fine. Ideas??

some random ideas in no particular order....
- assuming dealer is right maybe you're not setting t-stat high enough and unit is functioning properly. try setting t-stat for 95-deg or whatever highest setting is.
- if it always shuts down after 5-10 min then that can be duplicated in front of dealer or is this an interrmittent problem?
- find a different dealer
