Stanbroil Natural Gas Pilot Assembly Replacement Part for HHT, Majestic, Monessen, Temco, and Vermont Castings Fireplaces and Stoves

Fixed my gas stove issues, installed with no problems.

Ordered in morning, arrived that evening. Comparable materials to stock parts, Direct fit, came as a complete assembly, installed easily, worked the first time I lit the pilot (which had a good "flower" on the pilot jet). Would definitely recommend for the price, (It fixed my fireplace for $45.00) and only took me an hour from rip-out to full install. Make sure to test fittings with soapy water to insure no leakage, (Safety first)!

Worked perfectly

My Majestic natural gas fireplace main flame would not come on. I had noticed it was not reliable last year but this year it would not light at all. I checked the thermopile with a multimeter and it was only producing about 200mV which wasn’t enough to open the main gas valve. Also, the pilot light seemed to not want to stay lit indicating the thermocouple wasn’t being heated properly. I checked the pilot flame and it was not engulfing the thermopile or the thermocouple. I tried adjusting the pilot flame by opening the pilot adjustment screw on the gas valve but it would not get stronger. I tried cleaning the pilot burner and thermopile with steel wool but that did not increase the pilot flame or the dc voltage from the thermopile. I decided the pilot burner must be corroded or otherwise blocked. I inserted a wire in the outlets but still no better. To test the thermopile , I used a flame lighter to heat the thermopile and achieved enough dc voltage to turn on the main gas valve. So, I decided to replace the pilot burner. I found this set that included the thermocouple, pilot burner, igniter, and thermopile already mounted in the bracket and decided to just replace all of them with this new set. This part was a direct fit for my fireplace. The removal of the old set and install of the new set as well as applying new high temperature red silicone (600 degree) around the thermopile wires, igniter wire, pilot gas and thermocouple line where they goes through a hole from the gas valve area to the burn box took about an hour. Once I had it installed, I lit the pilot and the flame was significantly stronger and it surrounded both the thermocouple and the thermopile in the flame. I let the pilot run a couple minutes then tested the dc voltage the thermopile was producing and it was close to 600mV which is more than enough to activate the main gas valve to light the main burner (usually >350mv). So, I flipped the wall switch and the gas valve opened and the main burner came on within a few seconds. To conserve gas used for the pilot I then adjusted the flame down until the thermopile was producing 450 mV consistently. That seemed to be where the gas valve opened and main burner came on with ease. Overall this was a fairly easy fix and now all the components are new again in my 22 yr old fireplace. This part was $40 and I had to buy some gas pdfe tape for the pilot burner gas line ($2) and a tube of quality, high temperature red silicone ($13 don’t scrimp on this for safety reasons). So for $55 and an hour of my time my fireplace is like new again.

First picture has gas feed above the plate , second picture is stanbroil, gas feed is below the plate. Feed line is too long to fit my stove . Looks like a good quality piece.
