Pilot Light and Ignition Repair in Lincoln, NE

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 Lincoln, NE.

Talk to a real person
Why is there no hot water?
No hot water often results from a failed heating element, tripped breaker, or empty pilot light. A service call to (833) 774-1697 resolves the issue quickly in Lincoln, NE.
Why is my water heater leaking from the bottom?
A leak from the bottom usually signals tank corrosion or a failed drain valve. Replacement is required once the tank corrodes.
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.
How often should sediment be flushed from a water heater?
Flush sediment from a tank water heater once per year. This step extends the life of the unit.
