Why is My Gas Water Heater Pilot Light Out? Common Causes & Quick Checks

Several factors can cause a pilot light to extinguish. A common culprit is a simple draught, but other reasons include a faulty thermocouple (a safety device that cuts off the gas supply if the pilot light goes out), a blocked pilot light orifice, or even a problem with the gas supply itself. While some basic troubleshooting is possible, working with gas appliances demands caution. It's always best to leave repairs to the experts to ensure your safety and compliance with gas regulations. Before calling us, make sure your gas supply is turned on at the meter and check other gas appliances to confirm the supply is consistent.
