pilot light does not stay lit
my luxaire furnace pilot light does not stay lit when i release the pliot button. how do i trouble shoot?
|
There are basically two reasons
Pilot flame not strong enough to engulf the thermocopler to heat it .. Just need to clean the pilot assy OR The thermocople is weak and needs to be replaced..Most likely |
Or both. I very rarely clean non aerated pilot burners as the orifice is so tiny it can get distorted/damaged and then we get callbacks. They can warp also and get a distorted flame. A new Q314 and thermocouple is the best bet.
