Never connect the receiver to house power.Skytech warns against wiring the receiver directly to 110 to 120VAC and says the system is for attended use only, so set it to OFF when no adult is home. Keep the receiver case below 120 degrees F for the best battery life and operation.

Questions people ask us

Will it work with my valve?

It is made for valves with a 6VDC HI/LO servo motor or solenoid that support on/off and high/low flame control. Send us the fireplace or valve model and we will check.

What if HI and LO work backward?

Skytech says to reverse the two wires at the receiver or at the valve control so the buttons match the flame.

How does the thermostat work?

Set a temperature between 45 and 99 degrees F. The transmitter reads the room every two minutes and cycles the fireplace about 2 degrees either side of your setting, which usually means 2 to 4 cycles an hour.

How do I turn on the child lockout?

Press ON/HI and MODE together for 5 seconds. Do the same to turn it off.
