I have a gas fireplace insert. The unit is operated by flipping what appears to be a standard wall switch at the base of the insert. I would like to replace this with a smart switch that I can control with my iPhone. I don't understand the mechanism of the existing switch. I know that if functions to turn on the fireplace even when all electricity is off, so it does not require a live connection to house current.
I've been looking at the Aqara Dual Relay Module. The descriptions seem to indicate that this would work to allow me to use Apple Home kit and other apps to operate the fireplace remotely. It apparently can be used in a switch box to convert a standard wall switch to a smart switch.
I would appreciate any suggestions on this proposed DIY project.
