The Pilot will not light

1 comments:

The Tropitone 401601RD pilot may not light due to one or more of the following reasons:

1. Gas not reaching the pilot: Ensure the gas valve is open and the gas line is properly connected. Wait 5 minutes for any residual gas to clear before retrying.

2. Improper lighting procedure: Hold the gas valve knob for 20 seconds, then use a lighter or match to light the pilot in front of the igniter box. If it fails, repeat the steps.

3. Air in the gas line: It may take multiple attempts to purge air from the line.

4. Wind or drafts: Lighting the pilot in windy conditions may prevent ignition.

5. Faulty components: The gas valve, igniter, or gas hose with regulator may be damaged or malfunctioning.

6. Clogged pilot orifice: Dirt or debris can block gas flow to the pilot.

Verify all procedures and connections as instructed. If the issue persists, inspect components or contact a qualified technician.
