DuraVent is the worst. They have no idea what kind of issues they’re creating for the annual maintenance of these garbage fittings. 33 years in the industry and after numerous complaints and suggestions they still don’t listen to the pros out there (like me) using their products. I hate this manufacturer.

Do you still have your Black Olive?

Correct

Thanks for making this video. Duravent's installation instructions for the through-the-wall kit are awful. Just getting a sanity check on what the adapters do is extremely helpful.

Pilot gas valve only .Great info for sure .Pilot works but can,t get the main burner to operate at all .???

I need a 6” dbl to a ad 8”. To they make such part? If so, where can I buy one?

No it doesn't make sense, shouldn't the crimp be towards the up side or am I all backwards ?

Thanks, Nice, and how to restore the contact to spark generator, the light grey plastic on the top of the valve.

I have this same 820 SIT Valve. When I press in on PILOT, I get gas to the pilot, and to the main burner. Aside from that, it works normal. Of course this also means when you turn from ON to PILOT, it stays running. I don't care, because I'm happy to manually start and stop this only when I use it. I'm just unsure if there is a safety issue here? I'm starting to think this has a diaphragm in it that is ruptured, that could cause this?

Thank you so much for this video. I wanted to replace the ageing thermocouple on my FMI natural gas fireplace. The thermocouple was routed from the rear of the valve and made it very difficult to remove. After disassembling the thermocouple, I discovered a white plastic piece and a loose blue wire dangling from the rear of the valve. I had no idea where they came from or what their purpose was. I searched KZbin and came across your thorough presentation on the two possible thermocouple connections on the SIT 820 NOVA Gas Valve. You also answered what these two pieces were and how they contribute to the overall safety of the fireplace. In the end I opted for the t-connection in the front of the valve, making it a whole lot easier to access if I ever have to replace the t-connection again. Thanks again!

It needs separate ignitor?

You saved me $250!! Thank you !!!!!!

Best video ever

Does it need to be screwed to the flue collar??

Yesterday we visited some people at an airbnb. It had one of these fireplaces with the controller in this video except the fireplace was about half as wide. Nobody could get it to work so I decided to try. But I couldn't get it to respond either so I went to KZbin and learned there are buttons next to the power switch which did turn the fireplace on, but it was only cosmetic flames, the heat button didn't seem to do anything. The controller doesn't appear to have replaceable batteries. Is there a usb charge hole I didn't notice? What is going on here?

Very helpful video. Feel much more confident in my ability to service this unit. Ideally I will be supervising...thank you for this video.

Lol why was I recommended this, I don’t even own one? At least I watched it, so I know if I ever do get one I now know how to replace the S50 glass

❣️ promo sm

You save my life!! Thanksssa

Can you help me . When it goes in support box does it go on the outside lip or do I got to hammer that lip out some to fit inside it?

you spent way to much time on this video. What size is it. standard metric???

Do you need this to connect your DVL pipe to the stove collar? Thank You.

This video saved my day today . I had it into the rear of the valve . (Like the old valve ) the new one was set to the front option. Never knew . Great video !!! Thank you !

Do you have an adapter from rectangle to a circle

Yep, right here. I caught one. The "police" poored diet down it to. They left. A month late, The first responders said it was soot buildup. Or, a body... You'll never be able to tell if there's someone in the chimney. . I just saw the Kent fire on KZbin. I used to live there but I thought they took everything out. Or it's another body. Heidi's little sister. I think she tried to crawl in , and kill someone for drugs. . Or' they went for more diet soda, and didn't take the first body out. Who knows.

Hola, luego de ver tu video de una válvula parecida a la de mi caldera me surge hacerte una pregunta. Sabes si la válvula Elettrosit 810 s2 lleva también una pila, ya que enciende el piloto pero los quemadores no. Muchas gracias

What kind of battery?

My outer skin doesn't come off!!!! The inner skin doesn't come out!!!! Help please

The thermostat connection on mine randomly stops and I have to jiggle it for it to turn on. Not the wire the connection on the nova gas valve. Is there a way to fix that? I put a little force on it and it turns the gas stove on and stays on but it seems like it doesn’t connect for long and shuts off.

Hey there. Thank you for this video and for responding to comments. I just installed a brand new valve (replaced a Honeywell), but in the testing phase, whenever I turned from OFF to PILOT, it opened the valve to the pilot- allowing gas to flow even without manually depressing the pilot button. I've replaced a couple of these before and this has never happened. Thought maybe it was to do with having assumed I would run the thermocouple off the front valve outlet, and maybe it needs to run off the rear? Or maybe just a bad magnet? How is the thermo position determined? Or can one simply choose which port to use for the thermo, so long as the blue wire is also connected there? Thanks!

Thanks for this video. I have several of these valves and the low setting is now low enough. Is there a way to adjust the High/Low adjustment so the flow can be reduced more? Or do I have to add an external regulator and then increase the pilot flow?

Hi thanks for this video. Question on this exact valve. It’s started with pilot not staying on, after turning to on position. Have replaced thermocouple. No luck still pilot won’t stay on. And now for some reason, not getting any gas to pilot at all. Have taken the valve apart, clean it, still no gas at pilot. Your advice will be appreciated.

Hello, I watched your video on the SIT 820 Nova gas valve t-couple connection. My t-couple will not thread into either port. It is the t- couple that was in the Honeywell 8420 bad valve. It really looks like it should thread into the Nova but it won't. Do I need a special Nova t-couple? Thanks for any help.

Do you know what is wrong if I can’t use the Thermostat mode now. It was working fine and now it is not working so the fireplace now constantly stays on it won’t shut down when it’s reached the temp?

So many thanks ! You save my life !

Thank you! Very helpful!

will this fit on a jotul f400 wood stove? seems loose to me

Do you know what holds the blue wire to the plastic valve in order to make contact with the thermocouple? I lost the internal connection for the plastic valve and it doesn't make the connection anymore with the thermocouple.

How do you turn it on with out Remote ? Sofi stadium with no remotes

Can you help me figure out where to install the igniter wire?

I got one from Amazon in Australia, I absolutely love it, it’s winter here atm and this thing is lit, pellets are bit dear here that’s the only draw back I felt , but love the smokeless tech

what is the name of the white plastic that goes on the blue wire? I dropped mine where I can't retrieve it. And do you know where I can buy this part?

Can this run without the heat?

I have the Napoleon gx 70 an I changed batteries in both units syncing them up but I can’t adjust temp.

Thanks , hay- is there any way to test this valve with an ohm meter?

what is the difference between a "Vent Free" valve and a non vent free valve. Can a valve for a fireplace like the one here with just a thermocouple be used instead of of using a valve with a thermocouple and a pilot generator ? Thank you

Does the Firebug need to be more protected from the heat. A heat shield or anything else to keep it from getting too hot, or melt?

So helpful! thanks

Hi, where's the adjustment screw to adjust manifold gas pressure? Thanks

Thanks so much, you saved me!!!!
