The valve system Flare ships with each indoor fireplace is equipped with a wall switch used to control the on and off functionality of the fireplace. To connect your Flare Fireplace to a new or existing home automation system you would remove the physical switch, using the cables connected to this switch to tie into your home automation hub.
The new Flare Fireplaces Home automation integration removes the need for a Wi-Fi adapter and improves reliability by implementing a direct cabled connection to your home automation hub, reducing complexity for integration. This integration will also allow you to use the already setup 3rd party applications your hub supports.
