Censorship Before Sleeping Fires could be exhibited in Kansas, the Kansas Board of Review required the removal of the love and breakfast scenes between Bryce and secretary, and to replace the intertitle "The new housekeeper," with "Several months later, through the influence of his money, Bryce has obtained a divorce and remarried."
Preservation Sleeping Fires is currently presumed lost. In February of 2021, the film was cited by the National Film Preservation Board on their Lost U.S. Silent Feature Films list.
