Controlling fire with X-10 is a bad idea. Unless you have a manually
operated off device like a valve bad things could happen. Such a valve
would defeat the whole purpose of X-10 except for the wow factor.

In my experience X-10 is over 95% reliable. That is not enough to
control an open flame in my house.

But that is me. I am not comfortable with an RF remote in this
application...
