I'm wanting to put a gas stove in a pool shed that is detached from our house. I'm looking at a couple different models that have millivolt remote ready gas valves (Buck Stove Steel Series or Model 329). I found a wifi thermostat (LUX GEO) that doesn't require 24v for power as it uses onboard lithium batteries. It's literature says it can be used with millivolt systems. My question is, do I need to insert a relay in between the tstat and stove?
