I've got a gas fireplace that runs with a switch, and i'm hoping to control it remotely with a smart thermostat upstairs,, ideally over wifi without running new wires . I want to use it to keep the upstairs from freezing while I'm away, without using the furnace. Is that possible?

Just wire it in parallel with the existing switch, then pair it with a smart thermostat upstairs like an Ecobee with remote sensors and you can automate it based on room temp...no new wires neededI've got a gas fireplace that runs with a switch, and i'm hoping to control it remotely with a smart thermostat upstairs,, ideally over wifi without running new wires .
