A little help is greatly appreciated. I am installing a Lennox Merit Plus fireplace. To the best of my ability to interpret the instructions here is what I have. The gas valve has two low voltage wires coming off it. I am installing a remote control for temperatures. I am also installing a blower kit.

I figure I am supposed to install 120v to the plug in the back right corner of the unit. The blower will plug into the variable speed control and the variable speed control will plug into the 120V plug. I figure the two low voltage wires from the millivolt gas valve can be inserted into the Skytech remote. The remote has two wires coming out of it but I am wondering if I can just remove those and insert the ones attached to the gas valve? The remote required 4 AA batteries. Will this affect the millivolt gas valve.

I was also thinking about installing a on/off switch in between the remote and gas valve.

There it is! Please comment as necessary.

Thank you in advance.

After looking at the instructions, seems not too clear.

I suggest you contact Lennox and ask them:
