We recently had a Heat-N-Glo DV3732 fireplace installed. We like it. We got the fancier RCT-MLT remote.

We have not been using the timer function. However, we've noticed that the fireplace turns off on its own after riunning for some time. I haven't tested to see if this is 9 hours.

I checked both the fireplace and the remote manual and couldn't find anything about "automatic chit off" but I'm wondering if there might be an undocumented 9-hr maximum run time "for safety" reasons that I just can't find.

Can anyone confirm?

There is a documented Auto shut off:

"
Auto Shutdown
This remote control has an Auto Shutdown feature incorporated
into its system. When the transmitter MODE is
in the ON position the fireplace will continuously operate
for 9 hours. After 9 hours, the fireplace will shut down.
To relight the fireplace:
1. Press the MODE button. The fireplace will operate
continuously for up to 9 hours before Auto Shutdown
repeats cycle. The Auto Shutdown signal comes from
the transmitter. The transmitter must be positioned
within a 20 foot operating range for the Auto Shutdown
feature to operate."
