There is now an app for the fireplace thanks to the Escea DX1500. The Escea DX1500 is a new home hearth that can be controlled via an iPhone or Android app. The fireplace is gas powered and connects to your phone using built-in WiFi.
The Escea DX1500 has a modern, rectangular design that complements any contemporary home. Using the app to control this luxe fireplace seems to be a cinch, with controls for timers, temperatures and fans being only a finger swipe away. The Escea DX1500 may be the first fireplace of its kind, but don't be shocked if future fireplaces and maybe even air conditioners implement some type of wireless smartphone control system. If it's one thing people hate, it's getting off the couch.
