Flame-Tec iFlame 3V Firebug Bluetooth Control Module

Flame-Tec iFlame 3V Firebug Bluetooth Control Module

SKU:IF-BTSR

$129.97 USD

The award-winning FireBug is the smallest control system on the market.

The FireBug has changed the way millivolt and IPI fireplaces are controlled. Although compact in size, at roughly 1.5 inches square, ½ inch thick, and weighing in at only ½ oz., the Firebug is big on features such as a battery health monitor, multiple device control, and much more. A single coin cell battery powers the unit and it has a built-in battery health monitor.

The Firebug doesn’t detract from your flames. You can get the “picturesque” look with this versatile remote- buried or hidden in fire glass, stone, or your logs for ease of accessibility and clean appearance.

iFlame App

iFlame utilizes the convenience of your smartphone to control the operation of your fireplace. Our easy-to-use graphic app lets you access available features of your fireplace and even gives you feedback about its operation.

*Note: Features and controls will depend on the control system model.

iFlame Compatibility

IFlame is not a one size fits all. Our modules are designed to work specifically with the country's most popular fireplaces. If you use a simple wall switch or thermostat, we can make it smarter. Maybe you have a full function remote that controls fans, lights, flame height and more; we can make that smarter too! Choose the picture that most closely resembles your current switch or remote and we will show you the perfect way to increase your enjoyment of your fireplace.
