Pilot Light Installation in Argyle, TX

A standing pilot burns continuously, costing roughly $5-10 of gas a month, but it keeps working in a power outage and is simpler to service. Intermittent pilot ignition (IPI) only sparks when you call for flame, saving that fuel, but most IPI systems need power or a battery backup. If outage operation matters to you, standing pilot still wins.

One to two hours for a straightforward job. It runs longer if the gas valve has to be swapped to support the new ignition, or if the burner orifice and air shutter need re-tuning afterward. The starting price assumes an existing compatible valve.

The work is on the gas valve and live fuel line, and a miscalibrated pilot flame won't fully engulf the thermocouple tip, which causes random shut-offs or, worse, a valve that doesn't prove flame correctly. Most jurisdictions also require the work be done by a licensed fitter for the warranty and insurance to hold.

Sometimes, if a retrofit module is listed for your specific valve and appliance. Many older millivolt valves can't accept one and have to be replaced entirely, which changes the economics. A tech confirms the valve model and gas type (NG vs. LP) before quoting, since orifices differ.
