Can you help me with a question about my remote control to my gas fireplace?

Asked by chyna (51324points) November 3rd, 2021 from iPhone

I just converted my wood burning fireplace to gas logs. There is a remote control to turn it on and off. The first night it was up and running, my receiver box, which is just outside the fireplace, started beeping. Every 4 seconds. I couldn’t get it to stop so I took the battery out. Read the instructions and they said if the remote was more than 20 feet away from receiver it would beep. Well it was only about 8 feet away, so I moved it closer. Now it’s about 5 feet away. There is nothing obstructing the line between the two. It was good for about 4 days and all of a sudden, it started beeping again at 2 in the morning. Nothing had changed.
What is happening?
I feel like I’m in an episode of Twilight Zone!
