How difficult is this to install?
1 Answer
The receiver box plugs into the gas valve on the TH and TP/TH pegs. You then install the batteries into the remote and receiver. Set the receiver to remote mode and you are ready to go.

My Skytech 1001-a remote turns on the fireplace, but the flames go out after a few seconds. I can manually turn the flame on using the receiver box but it still goes out, and when I use the manual switch on the fireplace the flame stays on. How do I fix this issue?
1 Answer
Have you replaced the batteries in the transmitter and the receiver? If not, please do so and follow the initial sync/learn procedure. If the remote is still not working, it may be dead.

Dave
from Boise, ID asked:
December 20, 2019
How many millivolts does this unit put out when turned on?
1 Answer
The remote control does not generate millivoltage, that is referring to the gas valve type to which this remote control can connect and operate. The millivolt gas valve uses a standing pilot light to generate the millivoltage to operate the burner. This remote kit contains a battery-operated transmitter and a battery-operated receiver and communicates with the millivolt gas valve to turn the burner on and off.

This works like a charm and easy to install. Hook it up and change the batteries (on occasion) it's set it and forget it.

Remote Control unit works great!
We purchased a SkyTech 101 remote control for use with our Dexen MVK-EI electronic ignition natural gas Safety Pilot Valve Kit. It was easy to install and has worked reliably. Its a great convenience to be able to start our gas log fire remotely - even from across the room.

Inexpensive Solution
This remote is simple and straightforward. We purchased it to replace the remote that came with our fireplace. It doesnt have a lot of features, but it works great for basic on/off control. It is easy to install, and the price was very cost effective.

No Luck
We read the instructions and thought we had done everything correctly, but somehow the transmitter and receiver were not communicating. The code did not work even after we tried all the troubleshooting suggestions.

Easy to Do-It-Yourself
We found this remote when looking for a replacement for our old one. It is much simpler to use because it doesnt have to be programmed. Just put it in and turn it on! It was so easy to install I could do it myself.

Good Product
I am very happy with this kit. It comes with a wall clip and works great for igniting fires. Unfortunately, I had to replace mine after leaving the battery in over the summer. Batteries tend to leak if left unused in a device for a long period of time. My mistake! I got a new one and it is working just fine.

Just What We Wanted
This is a great remote; it is easy to use, and simple to set up. It was just what we wanted! The funny thing is, I didn't need a new remote but I had to rule out all the pieces that could have been broken. Turns out I had a faulty thermocoupler. Oh, well! Its fixed now, and I love the new remote.
