  1. This actually leads into an integration request i planned on posting for a remote dealer / programmer

    I had a Napolean LN62 fireplace during my recent renovation. The original C4 dealer originally agreed upon handling the integration, but in the end said it could not be done. 

    The Napolean model i purchased utilizes a Proflame 2 transmitter, after a little digging i found a potential way of making it work (I'm sure there are more elegant ways of accomplishing this, but i am an end user that is technologically challenged to put it mildly). This particular controller uses a 315 mhz signal, so i purchased a Broadlink Pro+ learning remote transmitter. Used the proflame 2 remote that came with the unit & 'learned' the on / off and + / - functions to the app. The app it uses is called ihc - now i have the ability to control the unit through my phone, but i am hoping to have a remote dealer incorporate this function into the actual Control4 program my house runs. It is also nice to have the +/- control. From my understanding the communication goes APP -> Wifi -> broadlink -> RF -> Fireplace. It's tucked into a nearby cabinet, so i was not left with any eyesores either 

    Also, there are a few transmitters that use a dedicated app & bluetooth that some manufacturers are using now. I do not know much about it though 

    Good luck with the fireplace - let me know how you end up solving the integration
