Automated options are available on gas lanterns to ensure safe operation and in some cases improved energy efficiency.
Automatic Shut-Off Value
When installing The CopperSmith gas lanterns, we recommend using an Automatic Shut-Off Valve to safely shut off the flow of gas to the open flame burner if the flame is blown out. This feature is only available on CopperSmith gas lanterns.
Electronic Igniter
The Electronic Igniter from Primo does not automatically shut off the flow of gas, but will light the flame after detecting it has been blown out. This feature is only available on Primo Gas Lanterns.
