How to Replace the Bulbs in an Electric Fireplace
- 1). Turn off your electric fireplace. Wait for at least 10 minutes for the bulbs and fireplace to cool.
- 2). Unscrew the screws securing the doors to the fireplace to remove the cover or doors. Some free-standing models require turning the entire unit around and removing a back access panel. Read the user's manual to determine how to access the bulb assembly.
- 3). Lift the logs and grate out of the fireplace. You may need to remove the fireplace trim before you can take the logs out of the fireplace.
- 4). Rotate the burnt-out bulb counterclockwise to remove it.
- 5). Install the new bulb by turning it clockwise.
- 6). Reassemble your fireplace. Reverse steps 1 through 3.
