I'm considering installing a gas fireplace insert in my open masonry fireplace. Two different fireplace shops recommended that I get the Enviro E44. So far everything I read about it is positive, but there's one big issue. The remote thermostat that comes with it, as far as I can tell, is not programmable. I would be using the insert as a primary heat source for a portion of my house, so I need the ability to program it like a regular thermostat - set it to turn on automatically in the morning, lower when I leave for work, etc. Are there aftermarket remotes that are compatible with the E44 that can do this? Are there other inserts that come with remotes with this capability?

Thanks.
