Pilot Light and Ignition Repair in El Paso, TX

A weak thermocouple fails to keep the gas valve open after the pilot flame is lit. Melvin's Water Heater Service measures millivolt output from the thermocouple under flame. Readings below thirty millivolts require replacement. Technicians clean the pilot orifice of spider webs that restrict gas flow. One paragraph describes the piezo igniter button and its spark gap.
After reassembly the flame sensor is positioned in the hottest part of the pilot. Call (833) 774-1697.

Pilot Light And Ignition Repair FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Pilot Light and Ignition Repair

Questions we hear most often about Pilot Light and Ignition Repair in El Paso, TX.

Talk to a real person
What does it cost to repair versus replace a water heater?
Repairing a water heater costs 200 to 800 dollars while replacement costs 1000 to 2500 dollars. A technician can inspect the unit to determine the better option.
What does a popping or rumbling noise mean?
Popping or rumbling noises indicate sediment buildup on the tank bottom. Flushing the tank removes the sediment and quiets the unit.
Why does the pilot light keep going out?
A pilot light that goes out points to a faulty thermocouple or gas supply problem. A technician at Melvin's Water Heater Service can replace the part.
What are the differences between tankless and tank water heaters?
Tankless units heat water on demand and save space while tank models store 40 to 50 gallons. Tankless models suit homes with high demand.
Is a leaking water heater an emergency?
A leaking water heater requires prompt attention to avoid water damage. Call (833) 774-1697 for same-day repair in El Paso, TX.
