REMOTE CONTROL (Optional)
An Alpine Remote Control Kit (08501) may be installed on
this fireplace. The remote control kit comes with a hand
held transmitter, a receiver, a wall mounting plate, and a
wall mounted transmitter cradle. The remote control is
thermostatically controlled so you can set the fireplace to
the desired room temperature, and have that temperature
maintained. The remote control is battery powered and will
require periodic maintenance to keep the system working
properly.
1. Choose a convenient location on the wall to install the
receiver unit. A standard electrical box may be used. Run
wires from the fireplace valve to the desired wall location.
See the millivolt lead table on page 14 of this manual for
maximum wire runs.
2. Connect the wires to the gas valve (see figure 45).
3. Follow the installation instructions included with the
remote control kit.

A wall thermostat may be installed if desired. Follow the
wire routing instructions on page 14 of this manual. Alpine
offers two types of wall mounted thermostats. One is a
basic heating type thermostat (part # 08260). The other is a
programmable model (part # 08261). See your Alpine
dealer for additional information on the thermostats.
NOTE: If a Wall Thermostat is desired, there is no
need to install a wall junction box. The thermostat wire
will simply need to be routed to the desired location of
the wall thermostat and made accessible through a
small hole in the drywall. Both types of thermostats are
surface mounted on the finished wall. They should not
be installed until painting is complete.
