Answer:

You need a safety pilot control- which should be avaialble at and Hearth Dealer - around $150.—-  Then a plumber will have to install it. This will allow you to turn a knob and have the logs come on. If you want a wall switch or remote control option, this will cost quite a bit more (different type of valve) - say $300 - $450.
