Millivolt vs manual control- gas logs question

lsst
11 years ago

I am replacing a set of gas logs.
I have a choice of millivolt or manual control.
The millivolt is more expensive.
If I do not plan on ever adding a remote or wall switch should I save the money and get a manual control?
Is there any reason (other than adding a remote) that I should go with a millivolt control over a manual control?
Does the millivolt make the log set easier to light the pilot?

Thanks in advance!

    The only reason for a millivolt valve is to use a wall switch or remote, or to utilize additional safety features in pre built insert type units.
