Buying Guide: Fireplace Gas Valve Parts

Gas Valve Keys
Blue Flame gas valve keys turn the gas on and off at the valve. Universal keys suit 1/4 in. or 5/16 in. valve stems, and expandable keys extend to help reach a valve stem that sits deeper. Keys are available in several finishes to match your hearth decor.

Flange Kits and Covers
Flange kits and square flange covers with keys give the gas valve a square look. Many flanges are made of zinc and include a bushing that extends the length by up to 1.5 additional inches for a 1/2 in. valve. The bushing can be removed for a 3/4 in. valve.

Natural Gas Log Lighters
Blue Flame log lighters are for natural gas and increase heat in wood burning fireplaces, including when the power goes out. They mix air and gas for a safer light up. The angled model ensures a light up next to kindling and paper, and they can start even wet wood without kindling. Check the height and gas type before ordering.
