This model comes in both DSI, (Direct Spark Ignition) and Manual pilot light models....
Actually NO........
SW6P (OPs model) is Pilot Flame---manual light
SW6PE.........is Pilot with electric heat element
SW6PR.......Pilot with Reigntor
SW6PER......Pilot with Reignitor and electric element
DSI Models do not have Pilot Flames...they use High Voltage/Spark Electrode to ignite the Main Flame Directly
Doesn't have the thermostat gas control like pilot models. They have gas valve with separate set of t-stat
Different model---different scheme---different controls
