But I also wanted to be able to have control over those Hi-Med-Lo settings, as doing that manually meant someone was constantly having to fiddle with that switch to keep the room within a comfortable range.
I also wanted to avoid ugly thermostat wires, which I could have also done with a simple wireless thermostat. I wanted to have automated and wireless control over starting that insert in the morning, which of course any thermostat could do.
The stove also has a manual switch that allows it to burn at a Hi-Med-Lo setting (just a simple DPDT with off in the middle - that tells the control board which of those three settings to run in based on the position of that manual switch. The stove can be turned on or off via a thermostat, which is just completing or breaking a circuit on the stove. We use a Quadrafire Santa Fe pellet stove fireplace insert in my wife's home office, which is part of the the finished, walk-out basement of our home.
