SH-Y Control Kit for Gas Fireplace with Millivolt Valve, IPI Electronic Ignition Control Module, Works with Any Smart Plug Outlet (Included) (Control Kit Only)

Can NOT turn on fireplace? Check your pilot fire and thermopile first.

All models are NOT power supply. They do NOT output voltage or current to gas valve. They only process the millivolt voltage generating from thermopile if the pilot fire is on.

Therefore, you can NOT turn on the fireplace fire / gas if the pilot fire is OFF or the thermopile is out of operation (no millivolt voltage generated when heated). This is a safety protection from gas leakage. Please check before return.

Shut off the pilot fire, gas supply, wall switch, and any power if your house is unattended for long time.

Do they fit my fireplace? How to tell?

To find a remote control that is compatible with your gas fireplace, the first thing you'll need to find is what type of gas valve your fireplace uses. This information can be found most easily in your fireplace installation & operation manual, the relevant information is usually located under the "Wiring Diagram". If you don't have your fireplace owner's manual, you can also find the model # on the rating plate located somewhere inside / behind your fireplace, and search online with words "model # + manual".

You can also identify the valve type by taking a look at it directly in your fireplace. Our remote control models are all compatible with Millivolt valve, which has TH, TH/TP terminals for connection.

Smart Home or RF Remote?

1. Looking for controlling and integrating your gas fireplace in your smartphone APP, and voice-control with hubs such as Echo, Google Assistant speakers, we recommend theSmart Home (SH) WiFi seriesfor you.

2. Looking for a traditional, direct, simple remote control solution by holding a transmitter handset in hand, then the RF type remote control kits are the best fit your needs.

3. Looking for using your smartphone to replace the transmitter handset, and there is no WiFi for internet connection, well, a Bluetooth remote control might be your favorite.

Choose No Leak AA, AAA batteries.

For battery-powered devices, we strongly recommend the Energizer AA & AAA Lithium Batteries, of listing ASIN: B00EAKP8S0 or equal quality batteries which are Leak-Proof.

ATTENTION: Any corrosion caused by batteries leak will damage remote control devices. This issue will be regarded as improper use by user.

(a) Connect to Millivolt Valve

Adding an optional remote receiver by connecting the TH/TP + TH on Millivolt valve. These terminals are originally designed for a room thermostat.

*Field wired, in series.

(b) Replace On/Off Switch or Thermostat

Replacing an existing wall / manual On/Off switch or room thermostat with remote receiver.

(c) Connect to Electrical Outlet Box

Adding an optional remote receiver at the 24VAC power (output) of electrical outlet box.

*Field wired, in series.

(d) Switches In-Series or In-parallel

Adding remote receiver into an existing wall / manual On/Off switch or room thermostat with remote receiver. Results: Wiring IN SERIES with existing wall switch:

1. Wall switch ON + remote control ON = Fireplace ON;
2. Wall switch ON + remote control OFF = Fireplace OFF;
3. Wall switch OFF + remote control ON = Fireplace OFF;
4. Wall switch OFF + remote control OFF = Fireplace OFF.

Wiring IN PARALLEL with existing wall switch:

1. Wall switch ON + remote control ON = Fireplace ON;
2. Wall switch ON + remote control OFF = Fireplace ON;
3. Wall switch OFF + remote control ON = Fireplace ON;
4. Wall switch OFF + remote control OFF = Fireplace OFF.
