I was wondering if the "EASY Touch Control" will work with the Harman XXV and will the
EASY Touch Control be able to automatically turn on the stove using a preset schedule?

The reason: wife comes home to a very cold house. It would be nice if the stove turned on automatically 20 minutes before she arrived home.


How can we achieve this?
 
I have a normal programmable thermostat with a 7 day program that does this just fine. It must be one that's suitable for gas log type devices not one that needs a 24 volt transformer. Mine was on sale and cost 20 bucks. Been using it for 5 years now.

Yes,the Harman touch has a built in 7 day schedule.As railfan said,you can add a thermostat to older harmans,even programmable ones,some people even have WIFI t/stats.
