MENSI Low Pressure LPG Propane Gas Fireplace Fire Pit Flame Failure Safety Control Valve Kit Review

After I installed the control valve I found that the thermocouple fitting is an M8 when the valve takes an M6 fitting. In otherwords the thermocouple is too big for the control valve. To check I used the old thermocouple to check the size and surprise it screwed in perfectly, then I compared the old and new thermocouples and found that the new one is bigger. How hard is it to put a parts together properly.

I used this for my firepit as the knob and thermocoupler were not working correctly. This part was an exact match to what I pulled out of my fire pit. I installed as directed and tightened all the connections appropriately. On the first use there was an overwhelming smell of propane while the pit was on. We have never had that experience before. The next day I removed all the connections, and reseated and tightened. Restarted the pit and the same.Someone mentioned that this has a larger…

THe only complaint about this valve is the KNOB. Its mark is opposite for the "OFF" position. SO i just used some white paint for reference. Not a big deal for what you need to do which is controlling gas flow.

So I have a 50,000 but propane fire pit. I have had for about 3 or 4 years. Valve assembly went bad. Used this as replacement. So far so good. We use it alot so time will tell.

This worked just fine to replace the rusted up one on my outdoor fire pit. Good quality materials and shipped fast. That's my review.
