Common Pilot Light Problems We Solve in Sedgefield Homes

Pilot light issues can stem from several causes. A dirty pilot burner is a common culprit, where dust and debris clog the small opening, disrupting the gas flow. A faulty thermocouple (the safety device that keeps the gas on when the pilot is lit) can also cause problems. Sometimes, it’s a simple case of a weak gas supply or a draught affecting the flame. Whatever the cause, our engineers are equipped to identify and rectify the problem efficiently.
