Common Culprits Behind Pilot Light Problems: A Consett Perspective
Pilot lights can fail for a number of reasons, and understanding the potential causes can help you explain the issue to our engineers. Common problems we see in Consett homes include:
- Blocked Pilot Jet: Dust and debris can clog the small jet that feeds gas to the pilot light.
- Faulty Thermocouple: This safety device senses the pilot light flame and allows the main gas valve to open. If it's failing, it will shut off the gas supply.
- Drafts: Strong drafts can blow out the pilot light, especially in older properties.
- Gas Supply Issues: Low gas pressure or a problem with the gas valve can prevent the pilot light from staying lit.
- Age and Wear: Over time, components in the pilot light assembly can simply wear out.
