Automatic Safety Pilot Kit - APK-10
Product Description
The Real Fyre APK-10 is an automatic safety pilot assembly designed for gas hearth and fire feature systems that call for a standing pilot and basic on/off control. This kit uses a continuous (standing) pilot for reliable ignition and includes an RR-1A on/off remote set, allowing the system to be started and shut down from inside the room.
The APK-10 is configured for natural gas and includes a propane orifice for conversion when the appliance setup requires LP.

Why Buy
Choose the APK-10 when you want a basic on/off control format, and your project calls for an automatic safety pilot with a standing pilot. It is a practical fit for installations where simple remote start/stop is preferred over variable flame control, and it supports either NG or LP setups when the appliance configuration allows conversion.
Expert Installation & Performance Notes
For island planning or fireplace planning, confirm your burner, log set, or fire feature system specifically calls for an APK-series safety pilot and verify the required fuel type before ordering. A standing pilot is designed to remain lit during the season, so plan for standard pilot use and follow the manufacturer’s lighting and shutdown procedures.
Fuel conversion should only be performed when the appliance and local code allow it, and a qualified installer should complete it. After installation, leak testing and a full safety check are essential before operation. If you want a wall-mounted control point instead of a handheld remote, plan for routing the optional WS-1 harness path before finishing surfaces.
