Gas Fireplace Remote Control
Fireplace comfort at your fingertips
No pressure. No surprise fees. A clear price before any work starts.
A remote control turns your gas fireplace into a one-touch comfort appliance: no kneeling at the valve, no fumbling with wall switches. Quick Chimney technicians add remote operation to fireplaces that never had it and replace receivers, transmitters, and wall controls that have stopped responding. Every installation is handled with a safety-first approach and wired to work correctly with your existing gas valve and pilot system, in line with local codes.

Frequently asked questions
Can a remote be added to an older gas fireplace?
Often, yes. Many older fireplaces with millivolt valves and standing pilots accept aftermarket remote receivers. A technician confirms your valve type on site, recommends a compatible system, and installs it so ignition, flame adjustment, and shutoff all work the way the manufacturer intended.
Is a fireplace remote control safe to use?
When matched to the right valve and installed correctly, remote systems include the same safety functions as manual operation, including pilot supervision that shuts off gas if the flame goes out. We treat every gas connection with a safety-first approach and follow local codes on each installation.
Why did my fireplace remote stop working?
The most common causes are dead batteries in the remote or receiver, a receiver that has failed from heat exposure, a lost pairing between transmitter and receiver, or a deeper issue with the pilot or thermopile. We diagnose the actual cause before replacing anything, so you only get the parts you need.
