Questions and answers
I have gas, I hear spark but the pilot light will not loght
If the pilot light will not light on a Suburban SW6D water heater despite gas and spark being present, possible issues include:
1. Air in gas lines: The first startup may require several ignition cycles to purge air.
2. Gas pressure problems: The main regulator may be set too high or the gas valve regulator may be faulty.
3. Blocked or pinched propane line: Especially if the water heater is in a slide-out, the propane line may be kinked or partially blocked.
4. Obstructed flue or burner: If the flue is not clear, ignition may fail.
5. ECO reset tripped: The ECO (energy cut-off) reset button may need to be pressed.
Each of these should be checked to identify the cause.
