We've had a few windy days here and last night i noticed the house wasnt getting warm.
This morning went up and see that the pilot is out , and thought it was because of the wind , so i lit it , go back down and turn up the thermostat .. nothing !
So hubby goes up and relights it , and has me turn on the thermostat and he says as soon as i turn that on , the pilot light goes back out .
Could this be the thermocoupler ? Thermostat ?
how hard is that for a novice to replace ? I would try replacing thermocoupler first. Take notice to how it is installed,remove,measure and replace with same.
also sometimes they slip out of place,and are not in position to lite,but I don't think that is problem.
