Sunster A2422 Remote Compatibility with 2409 and 2409Pro Heaters – Version Guide & Solutions

Sunster A2422 Remote Compatibility with 2409 and 2409Pro Heaters – Version Guide & Solutions

Introduction:
The A2422 remote underwent a significant upgrade after August 2025. The new A2422 is a temperature-sensing, wireless, two-way remote that allows full control of the heater just like the physical heater switch. It also includes CO monitoring to safely control heater on/off.

In contrast, the 2024 version of the A2422 only supports CO monitoring for heater on/off and does not have temperature sensing or two-way control features.

To use the new A2422’s remote functions, you must pair it with this year’s A2409Pro or A2409PW (WiFi version).

How to Identify the New A2409:

  1. Power cycle the heater (turn off then on).
  2. Check the version displayed:

Version ≥100 → This is the new 2409Pro (2025 release), supports the new A2422 remote.

Version 009 → Old version (2024), does not support temperature sensing two-way control and cannot perform OTA firmware updates via the app.


Common Matching Issues and Solutions for 2409, 2409Pro, and A2422:

Type 1: Using old 2409/2409Pro with new A2422

Situation: Customers with a 2409 (no “Pro” on the switch) or 2409Pro purchased before June 2025 (stock in Czech/Australia), bought a new A2422 and cannot connect. Most choose the WiFi version to solve this.

Solution:

  1. 2409 without FC/FD settings cannot connect to A2422.
  2. 2409Pro with FC/FD settings can connect to old and new A2422, but only as a sensor, not as a remote.
  3. Video Guide: Pairing new A2422 with last year’s 2409Pro works only as a sensor. During pairing, “SUC” will not appear; success is confirmed if the Bluetooth subdevice count increases in the 2409Pro configuration page.

 

Type 2: Old 2409 and A2422 purchased last year, now pairing fails

Situation: Both the heater and A2422 are from last year; pairing fails or the temperature control function is missing.

Solution:

  1. If using an old 2409 with automatic start/stop, temperature control is unavailable. Set ct=1 to enable channel functionality. 
  2. Video Guide: Old A2422 cannot connect to last year’s 2409. After performing this operation, re-add the A2422. Before operation: F number shows 01:01; after operation: it changes to 00:00.

 

Type 3: Old A2422 with new 2409PW

Situation: Customer wants to pair last year’s A2422 with this year’s 2409PW, fails.

Solution:

  1. 2409Pro and 2409PW do not support old A2422.
  2. Recommendation: Purchase the latest A2422 to ensure compatibility. We offer trade-in discounts for old units.

Do you have a wifi/ bluetooth controller compatable with the s-a2013sl

Stuart Alexander J Phillips

It’s great it warms up my 24/24 garage

I have purchsed the C02 unit and have the 2409PW controller, the C02 unit is absolute garbage, the co2 monitor is out by 15ppm even if I calibrate it, the Bluetooth loses connection every time the heater is turned off for long periods ie overnight, the thermostat is not accurate and is also not sensitive enough the whole unit does not do anything it’s designed to absolute garbage!

I Have version 011, I would like to update to the newest version so I can set the min/max variables on temperature control I can’t find a way to update the firmware/software

(Even better would be to have wireless)
