A gas control valve includes a first element, a second element, a mediate element, a sleeve, a rod and a control element. The first element defines a first path. The second element defines a second path and a hole in communication with the second path. The mediate clement defines a passage. The mediate clement is sandwiched between the first and second elements so that the first path is in communication with the second path through the passage. The sleeve includes a first end and a second end. The first end of the sleeve is inserted into the hole. The rod includes a first and a second end. The rod is inserted into the sleeve so that the first end of the rod is inserted into the second path and that the second end of the rod is exposed through the second end of the sleeve. The control element is connected between the second end of the sleeve and the second end of rod. Normally, the control element keeps the rod in a first position wherein the first end of the rod opens the passage. When subjected to heat, the control element moves the rod to a second position wherein the first end of the rod closes the passage.
