060-500 ROBERTSHAW VALVE NG – Natural Gas – Millivolt
✔ In stock — Usually ships in 1–2 business days
In a millivolt system, the valve is operated by low voltage generated by the pilot assembly thermopile and allows gas flow only when the safety circuit is properly established.
Not sure if this is the right part?
Before ordering, check the following:
- Locate your model number (typically behind the lower louver or inside the control compartment)
- Confirm your unit uses a millivolt (standing pilot) system
- Confirm your gas type is natural gas
- Compare your existing valve to the images provided

This is a millivolt (standing pilot) system pilot assembly for propane fireplaces. Standing Pilot systems require manually lighting the pilot, usually with a push button piezo, and the pilot will stay lit through the season. It includes:
• Thermocouple (keeps the pilot gas valve open)
• Thermopile (generates voltage to power the gas valve)
• Igniter Electrode (manual spark ignition)
• Pilot Tube (delivers gas from the valve to the pilot assembly)
These systems do not require external power, making them reliable and commonly used in many direct vent fireplaces.
Common Problems This Valve Fixes
If your fireplace uses a millivolt (standing pilot) system, the gas valve is the control center. When it begins to fail, it can cause a range of frustrating and sometimes confusing issues.
Replacing the valve often resolves the following problems:
- Pilot stays lit but burner will not turn on
The valve is not opening when it receives voltage from the thermopile. - Fireplace turns on intermittently or unpredictably
Internal valve components can wear out, causing inconsistent operation. - No response from wall switch or remote
Even with a good thermopile, a faulty valve may not react to the signal. - Burner shuts off unexpectedly
The valve may be failing internally and dropping out under load. - Weak or unstable burner flame
Improper gas regulation inside the valve can affect flame performance. - Gas flow issues, low flame, or no flame
A failing valve can restrict or inconsistently supply gas to the burner. - Clicking or switching sounds but no burner ignition
The system is calling for heat, but the valve is not opening. - Valve knob feels loose, stuck, or does not function properly
Mechanical wear or internal damage to the valve body may prevent proper operation.
Important Note
Many of these symptoms can also be caused by a weak thermopile, thermocouple failure, dirty pilot assembly, switch wiring issues, or improper gas pressure. Proper diagnosis is strongly recommended before replacing the valve.
Warranty Information
This product includes a 12-month warranty from the date of purchase. This warranty covers defects in materials or workmanship under normal operating conditions.
Fireplace components must be properly installed and matched to the correct system (millivolt vs IPI, natural gas vs propane).
This warranty does NOT cover:
• Improper installation or incorrect application
• Use with the wrong gas type (NG vs LP)
• Misdiagnosis of the issue
• Damage caused by other failing components
• Normal wear and tear
• Labor, service, or diagnostic time
Because many fireplace issues can be caused by multiple components, we strongly recommend confirming the diagnosis before replacing parts.
We are happy to assist with this. Proof of purchase is required for all warranty claims. Please contact us prior to removal or replacement of the part so we can help verify the issue and guide the warranty process.
How do I know if my valve is bad?
Common signs of a failing gas valve include the pilot staying lit but the burner not turning on, no response from a wall switch or remote, intermittent operation, or the burner shutting off unexpectedly.
In some cases, the valve may fail to open and allow gas to flow, even though the system is calling for heat. You may also notice inconsistent flame behavior or complete loss of burner function.
Before replacing the valve, it is important to verify that other components such as the thermopile, thermocouple, ignition module, or wiring are functioning properly, as these can cause similar symptoms.
How difficult is this part to replace?
Replacing a gas valve is considered a moderate to advanced repair because it involves working with gas lines and critical safety components.
The process typically requires shutting off the gas supply, disconnecting and reconnecting fittings, and ensuring all connections are properly sealed and leak-free. In many cases, adjustments or system checks are also needed after installation.
For safety and proper operation, installation is recommended to be performed by a qualified technician.
Is this a safe DIY repair?
Gas valve replacement involves working with gas lines and safety-critical components, so it is generally not recommended as a DIY repair for most homeowners.
Improper installation can result in gas leaks, unsafe operation, or damage to the fireplace system. Correct procedures, proper tools, and leak testing are essential to ensure safe operation.
For safety and reliability, installation is recommended to be performed by a qualified technician.
Do I need any special tools to install this?
Gas valve replacement typically requires standard hand tools such as wrenches and screwdrivers, along with gas-rated thread sealant or tape for proper sealing of fittings.
A manometer may also be needed to verify proper gas pressure after installation, and leak detection solution is required to ensure all connections are safe and secure.
Because proper setup and testing are critical for safe operation, installation is recommended to be performed by a qualified technician.
