ANOTHER hot water tank/heater problem!!??
Get one problem fixed and now another.
Ran out of hot water this PM...checked the hot water settings and the burner was off.
I went through the usual routine to light a gas pilot. The pilot lit with no problem....but would not stay lit to allow turn the control to on. I tried several more times holding the pilot light button down for 2-3 minutes (instaed of just one). Still the pilot would go out as soon as I let the button up to swithch the control to on.
Is my only resort to get a plumber in to check it.
The tank is going on 9 years old....I hate to think I have to replace one in such a short time.
Suggestions?
