ever light fireplace replacement
it appears that i am going to be replacing the fireplace under warranty, because the thermostat doesn't work. has anyone done this before? specifically, how does one remove the unit from the space it's in? thanks in advance.

Is it the type with a smooth glass cover on the front?
Lift straight up and it will pop off.
I think even the metal side covers will lift off.
There are a few screws that hold it into the wood framing.Steve- Inventory Manager at Tom Schaeffer's RV, Shoemakersville, PA www.tomschaeffers.com

yes, it is the curved front unit. i've tried lifting the metal frame straight up as you suggest, but it doesn't budge. i can't see where the metal frame is fastened. i'm perplexed....hhheeelllppp....thanks

I just wish GD would make a faceplate with OEM doors that would take the place of where the broken fireplaces used to be. I bet mine didn't last 5 days before it went caput.
We just heat with some small cube ceramic heaters, and seldom even use the furnace in the coldest of nights. I give up on electric fireplaces.

We still have our original fireplace working fine. Did replace the control board, forget how much but was cheap and easy to do. 5 years old now.

you gave me a good hint. i just had to figure out what exactly to pull up on. got it! there is a black trim piece surrounding the firebox in the shape of an upside down "U." put your finger tips in the two bottom corners and lift up. it slides right off, exposing the firebox retaining screws. easy-peasy. thanks

Fireplace
Thanks, if it was a few years ago that makes sense. I did call the number in the paperwork and spoke with GD but apparently that company is out of business. So we are buying a new one but the dimensions aren’t the same. When I saw your post, I was hoping you had located somewhere to buy the parts that I hadn’t discovered. Thanks for the response!
