Questions people ask us

What batteries does it use?

The transmitter takes one 12 volt A23 battery and the receiver takes four AA alkaline batteries. Skytech expects at least 12 months from a set.

Can I add a second remote?

Yes. The receiver can learn up to two additional Skytech transmitters. Set it to REMOTE, press LEARN, then press a button on the new transmitter and listen for the beeps.

How do I keep it off while I am away?

Slide the receiver switch to OFF. That disables the remote until you set it back to REMOTE. Skytech says an adult should be present whenever the fireplace is running.

Will it work with my fireplace?

It is made for millivolt gas valves, with an electronic spark ignition hookup through a 24VAC transformer shown in the instructions. Your fireplace manual has the final word, so send us the model and we will check.
