It's not difficult to change the bulb. But lengthy to explain. If you no longer have your Owners Manual go the link below and click on "Flame does not illuminate properly" More than likely though, the bulb(s) have just come loose.

To replace the lightbulbs for the Amish rollaway heater, there is a metal panel in the front that goes all the way across the bottom. It is about four inches high. It is attached with screws OR with magnets at either end. If there are magnets, just wiggle the panel at one end and then the other until the magnets let go. From there it is very easy. There are two lightbulbs to replace. You will see one on each side. Then place the panel back onto the magnets, or screw it back on if there are screws, and you are done.

SOURCE: my amish heat surge heater

Sadly, the only thing that is Amish on your heater is the cabinet mantle. The electric fireplace is made in China. Never-the-less, from what you describe, it appears that the heater coil is not receiving power or it has burned out. If it's not receiving power, one of the resistors that controls the power to heater has gone bad (probably melted). The bulbs being burned out does not affect the heater. You must have had this unit for sometime for the bulbs to burn out. Normally these are LED Bulbs that have a tremendously long life. It may be that the bulbs have vibrated loose and need to be re-tighten.

If I recall correctly, these units were sold with a one year warranty and may have had an option of an extended warranty. If yours is still under that one year warranty, you're in business. If you purchased the extended warranty, that's even better.

In any event, contact their customer service dept @ 1-800-924-7964, as they may able to help you even more.

My heay surge stove will run for awhile and then shut down

The heater is thermostatically controlled, so once the room temperatures reaches the heater's preset temperature, the heater cycles off. This is normal.

However, If the heater goes off BEFORE the room reaches the preset temperature, suspect a high temperature safety switch that may be tripping. Does the heater come back on after it cools down?

Heat surge amish heater turns off and trips reset button

Do NOT use this unit as is!.
My experience is you have to pay to ship it for repairs and if out of warranty you should buy another heater. All electric heaters use the same power for the same heat unless its a heat pump, so save money and buy $30 WalMart heaters.

How do you change a light in an Amish surge heater?

To do it correctly you'll need to see a drawing or picture. It's not difficult and the bulb may only be loose. They do that sometimes from vibration.

For more information and a downloadable manual do to:

My amish heat surge heater has to bad bulbs in it. I found that the heater is not putting out heat. the fan works but it won't heat. Is it because the bulbs are burnned out?

Charmglow electric fireplace flame does not flicker. Bulbs ok. HEF33WDG

You will have to connect a 12v dc power supply to the flame motor. The controller on the board has fried. I built a regulated 12 v dc power supply and tapped it into the bulb circuit so it will power the motor when the bulbs come on. You may have to find an electrician or techie to rig this up safely.Good luck!
