Castle Serenity - Comfortbilt WiFi Module

[brennyn21]

Just wanted to share something I’ve been using for a while now that I finally decided to make available to everyone. I originally built this for myself because I was trying to figure out a clean way to add Wi-Fi to my pellet stove so I could turn it on before leaving work, set on/off temperatures, and check the stove’s status without being home. One thing that always bugged me with both Castle Serenity and Comfortbilt stoves is that there’s no built-in Wi-Fi or app.
I know you can use a smart thermostat, but that setup ends up being multiple components and still doesn’t give full control of the stove (burn level, mode changes, timers, etc.). I really wanted one device and one app that talk directly to the stove.

Since Comfortbilt had plans for Wi-Fi, I knew it wouldn’t be too hard to build my own solution. I personally have a Castle Serenity, and even though Wi-Fi was never advertised for it, I found that both stoves use the same control head unit—which made this possible.

I’ve been running this setup for a while, and after friends and family kept asking if they could get one for their stoves too, I decided to turn it into a dedicated module with a proper app and make it available more broadly.

With This Module you can

• Turn the stove on or off from your phone
• Set temperatures so the house is warm when you get home
• Adjust burn level (1–5 in Manual mode)
• Switch operating modes (Manual, Temperature, Thermostat, Weekly)
• Set on/off timers (1–24 hours)
• Use temperature rules (off when it gets X° above setpoint, back on when it drops X° below)
• Check stove status and errors at a glance
• Switch between °F and °C

It is super simple to install as it just plugs into the back of the Head Unit
