Hi,
I have a H & G 6000glx-ipi fireplace with the wsk300-hng wall
thermostat. While this thermostat does a lot, including temp control,
turn aux stuff off/on, countdown timer, etc, it can not be programmed
to come on/off at time of day. Thinking of putting in a programmable
thermostat in series with the 'power' or 'control' wire to the
thermostat.
It would essentially power off the existing therm until a certain time
of day. May lose some of its settings, but perhaps i can live wth the
default that it comes up in after power on. It has 3 wires: R/G/W. Has
anyone tried this? Which wire could be switched?
Thanks,
John

Hi,
R is source of control voltage, 24V AC. Ypou'll se this voltage between
R and common line. W controls heat, G controls fan. You decide what to do.
