Best Answer

Most likely one or two of the burner orifices near the pilot light are clogged making the gas travel a distance before lighting. Pull the burner tray and clean it completely. And check for spider webs and other debris in the burners. Check for other gas leaks, and don't use flex lines, flanges, valves, or other fittings inside the heater. On the Series One, check the sidewalls to make sure they are intact.

231,000 joules is an amount of energy, while watts are a measure of how fast energy is used or converted. 231,000 joules could be used by 1 watt running for 231,000 seconds, or 231 watts running for 1000 seconds, etc. Energy = power x time, so 1000 watts for 231 seconds is an amount of energy equal to 231,000 joules.
