Product Details
This natural gas safety pilot valve kit by Dexen has a capacity of 82,000 BTU with a 175° hi limit switch. It features fuel-saving electronic ignition and uses a low capacity 3V battery. The assembly is 24" long and has an easily-accessible on/off switch that is located on the insulated shield front. The pilot automatically lights when the unit is turned on. Two D-cell batteries can power this unit for an entire year, and it can be operated with a separately purchased remote control, wall switch, or timer.
Please Note: This kit is ready for use with natural gas only. If you are using propane, you will need to purchase the EILPK kit separately.

Alan H.
from Canyon Lake, TX 78133 asked:
Will this kit work with a Flame-tec Firebug and allow flame height control?
The firebug could be used in place of a remote or on/off switch. It would take the place of the remote receiver in the wiring diagram supplied with the kit. To my knowledge, there is no way to modify this valve to control the flame height.

William H.
from Eden, Utah asked:
Where can I find the UL rating on this kit?
The gas log set burners and valves would carry ANSI or RADCO listings. Typically the valve and burner would have to be factory assembled to carry these listings.

Dexen MVK-EI Natural Gas Safety Pilot Valve Kit with Electronic Ignition
Yes, I would recommend this item.

Flip of the Switch Ambience
The valve kit was easy to install on our existing gas log. Saved thousands over having a fireplace company do the job. Anyone with mechanical/electrical skills could install it. Connections are well labeled, and some connectors are sized to prevent mistakes. One issue to be aware of is the positioning of the pilot assembly. This must be an inch or so from the actual burner flame to prevent heat damage to the wires. I used insulation from a car parts store to provide added heat protection for the wires between the control box and the valve.
Yes, I would recommend this item.

Natural Gas Safety Pilot Valve Kit with Electronic Ignition Review

Love the Dexen MVK-EI Pilot Valve Assembly
This came with more accessories than needed to make it work for any job. I was replacing a valve that had gone bad that used a Pilot light that was on full time and I wanted to have one with electric start. It took no time at all to install and with the fireplace already having power inside it for the fan, I was able to use the 3v Dexen power supply instead of batteries..
Cons
The manual is so short not a lot of question can be answered, like what adjustments can be done to the valve.
Yes, I would recommend this item.
