How Much Does a Gas Grill Valve Cost? [2026 Prices]

The gas valve is the part behind each control knob that meters gas to the burner. When a valve goes bad, the knob gets stiff or loose, the flame will not turn down, or you smell gas at the control panel. Valves are cheaper than most people expect, but they are also the one part on a grill where you should never cut corners.

What a grill valve costs by brand

Valve prices do not follow the usual rule that premium grills cost more for everything. A Lynx or Twin Eagles main valve costs about the same as a Summerset valve. The big jumps come from Fire Magic, AOG and DCS valves, and from manifolds.

Mass-market grills: about $23 to $175

Older and big-box grills use simple brass valves that clamp onto or thread into a gas manifold. Aftermarket brass valves for Char-Broil, Kenmore, Nexgrill and similar grills run about $23 to $37. A single brass valve for older Weber Genesis and Spirit 500 or 700 grills (2007 and earlier) is about $37 to $48.

Newer Weber grills are different. Weber does not sell single valves for current Spirit, Genesis and Genesis II models. You buy the full manifold with valves attached for about $100 to $175, or about $170 to $325 for a Summit. The upside is that everything comes pre-assembled and tested. Our Weber grill parts cost guide covers the rest of the grill.

Built-in grills: about $40 to $100 per valve

• Blaze main valves are about $40 to $45.
• Summerset main valves are about $43, with separate propane and natural gas versions.
• Lynx and Sedona main valves are about $46 to $58. Infrared burner valves run about $83, and the adjustable safety valve about $87.
• Twin Eagles main valves are about $59 to $62. The C-Series and B-Series use different valves.
• Alfresco main valves run about $55 to $70. Alfresco changed valve styles around 2011, so the serial number matters.
• Bull main valves are about $69.
• AOG and Fire Magic main valves are about $85 to $100.
• DCS control valves are about $90, and DCS safety valves about $125.

Fire Magic is a good example of why model details matter. Echelon and Aurora valves with push-to-light switches, Choice valves with an igniter built in, and older Regal and Custom valves without knobs are all different parts at similar prices. See the Fire Magic parts cost guide for more. Lynx valves also changed over the years, with and without micro switches for the ignition. The Lynx parts price guide explains the series letters.

Manifolds: about $190 to $540

A manifold is the gas pipe that feeds all the valves. On premium grills you rarely need one, but if the manifold is cracked, stripped or badly corroded, a new assembly with valves runs about $190 to $460 for Fire Magic, about $280 to $315 for Lynx, and about $270 to $540 for AOG. That is often the point where people start asking whether to fix or replace the grill. Our repair vs replace guide helps with that call.

Why you should buy OEM valves

For burners, grates and heat plates, good aftermarket parts are fine. For gas valves, buy OEM. The valve controls how much gas reaches the burner, and it has to seal perfectly at the stem and at the manifold. A valve that is close but not exact can leak, flow the wrong amount of gas, or let the knob turn past off.

Aftermarket valves do exist for some older AOG, Fire Magic and DCS grills, often at half the OEM price. They have their place on old grills where OEM parts are gone, but they need careful installation and a leak test. On any grill that still has OEM valves available, the extra $40 or $50 is cheap insurance.

Also match the gas type. Many valves are sold separately for propane and natural gas, or come with an orifice sized for one fuel. Putting a propane orifice on a natural gas grill, or the reverse, causes weak flames or dangerous flare-ups.

Signs a grill valve is failing

• The knob is very stiff, grinds, or spins freely without changing the flame.
• The flame will not go to low, or will not go out when the knob is off.
• You smell gas near the control panel even with the burners off.
• Soapy water bubbles at the valve stem or where the valve meets the manifold.
• One burner has a weak flame and the burner, orifice and venturi are clean.

A weak flame on every burner is usually not a valve problem. That points to the regulator, a tripped excess flow device on a propane tank, or a gas supply issue. Check our regulator and hose cost guide before buying valves.

If you smell gas strongly, shut off the gas at the tank or the supply valve, do not light anything or flip switches nearby, and call your gas utility or 911 from a safe distance.

Find your model and serial number first

Get the model and serial number off the rating plate before you order. On Weber and other cart grills it is a sticker on the frame, usually inside the cabinet door or under a side shelf. On built-in grills it is usually on a plate behind the drip tray, on the front frame, or on a pull-out tag. Also note whether the grill runs on propane or natural gas, and count the valves. Take a photo of the old valve and its label once you pull it.

DIY or hire a pro

Replacing a valve means taking off the control panel, disconnecting the igniter wiring on many built-ins, and opening the gas connections. It is not hard mechanically, but every fitting you open has to be sealed correctly and leak tested afterward. We recommend having a pro handle valve and manifold work, especially on built-in grills and natural gas lines.

Labor depends on the grill. Some front panels come off with a few screws, while others need the knobs, bezels, igniter module and lights removed first. A pro will also check gas pressure and the regulator, which can save you from replacing valves that were never the problem.

How Pro Grill and our network pros can help

Most service companies in our network are dealers or have dealer accounts, so they can usually get the right valve for your grill and install and leak test it in the same visit. Look for a grill repair company near you, or find a grill pro by ZIP code.

If you want the part yourself, Pro Grill can source OEM valves for most brands, including ones not listed in its store. Send Pro Grill your model and serial number and they will find it. You can also shop Summerset parts at the Pro Grill store or browse AOG parts at the Pro Grill store.
