Why flame won't stay burning in gas fireplace?
Just a guess- but most have a sensor known as a thermocouple. This detects the heat of the flame of the pilot light, and keeps gas from flowing if the pilot light is not lit. check that your pilot light (a very small flame) is burning, and that the flame heats a small metal tube- about as big as a wooden match. If pilot is out, get it lit, and let burn for 5 minutes, and try lighting fireplace. If it still will not stay lit, the thermocouple may need replacement- they DO wear out. Check with your local gas appliance repair service. While they are fixing it, have them show you correct lighting process.
Mercury emitted from burning coal can stay airborne for how long?
That will be 2 years. (textbook)
What gas is it that we need to stay alive. it is also needed for burning.a burning splint will burn brightly in this gas?
Oxygen
How hot is the yellow flame?
yes, they are. here are the flame colors in order from hottest to coolest. white - hottest blue - hotter yellow - hot orange - cooler than yellow red - cooler than all of above
What does a candle need to stay lit?
Make sure you are not close to any wind!!!!!! In addition, oxygen and the wick are needed to continue the flame. If the wick runs out, or if the candle is put in an oxygen-free environment the candle will burn out.

How do you relight the pilot-light of the home heating furnace?
Turn the knob on the top of the gas valve to "Pilot" and hold it down. Put your match or lighter near the pilot and it should light. Continue holding the knob down for about 30 seconds then release, and the pilot should stay lit. If it goes out then you may need to replace the thermocouple (the gold color rod that the pilot flame burns on) or have the pilot cleaned if it has a yellow flame.
What is the flame that continuously stay lit in the older model gas stoves?
It is called a pilot light.
Why is it important to prove the pilot flame is lit on a gas furnace before turning on the main gas burner?
The pilot has a thermocouple that generates an electric current when heated to hold open the control valve. If it is not hot enough there won't be enough current and the control valve won't stay open. Thus, gas will not flow to the burner.
What do you do if the pilot of your wall heater wont stay lit?
The flame detector on the pilot assembly is probably defective. If you do not know how to fix this, call you gas supplier and have it repaired.
Why does the flame stay burning during the olympic games?
It is a practice continued from ancient games and represents purity and endeaver for perfection
Why does my Calor Gas heater not stay on the pilot light burns like its in a draft?
I need to replace the pilot light on a superserve calor gas fire as the flame is blue on the bottom and yellow at the top
Your LP gas valve fails to stay lit?
Check that the temperature sensor is properly located (generally right above the pilot flame). If it doesn't stay lit after holding the pilot button down (per the instructions), have a repair person correct the problem.
How do you know if the thermo coupling on your gas furnace is bad?
The thermocouple tells the gas valve to supply gas to the burners. If the thermocouple is bad then the furnace will not work or the pilot will not stay lit. A properly working one will have a reading of at least 12 milliamps.
Pilot lite on teledyne laars mini therm 2 wont stay lit?
Replacing the thermocouple that the pilot flame touches when it is lit will fix the problem 90% of the time. A thermocouple costs about ten dollars and allows the gas to the pilot and main tube to flow by generating millivolts from the heat of the pilot flame. The thermocouple is a copper wire attached by a small nut to the main gas valve near the pilot tube coming out of the gas valve.
How does air help in burning?
When something burns, it needs oxygen to stay alight. There is oxygen in the air, and that lets a flame keep burning. If you were to put a glass over a flame, a candle for example, the fire would go out once it had used all of the oxygen inside and turned it into carbon dioxide.
How do keep the pilot on in my gas heater?
Depress pilot valve, hold in while lighting, hold in for 2 minutes while lit. Continue to hold pilot valve in while rotating the gas control to the "on" position. If the pilot flame doesn't stay lit, it may be due to a bad thermocouple, a device that looks like a thick, solid copper wire whose tip is in the pilot flame and whose other end is screwed into the gas valve. You would need to get a replacement thermocouple from a hardware store or have a handyman install a replacement thermocouple for you. Thermocouples typically last 6-8 years if the pilot flame burns continuously.
