Questions people ask us
Do I need to run wire to the switch?
No. The wall transmitter runs on two 3-volt button cells and mounts to the wall with a base plate, anchors and screws. It can also sit on an existing non-metal electrical box.
Will it work with my fireplace?
The 1001D-A is made for millivolt gas valves, and Skytech also shows a hookup for electronic spark ignition through a 24VAC transformer. Send us the fireplace model and we will check.
Where does the receiver go?
Either in a standard plastic switch box on the wall, which Skytech prefers, or on or near the hearth. Keep it where it stays below 130 degrees F, since heat also shortens battery life.
Can I add a hand-held remote later?
The receiver can learn up to two more Skytech transmitters. Ask us which ones pair with it. For AFVK-SP valve kits, there is a separate wall switch transmitter.
