If your having trouble getting it to fire up you could have a problem with a plugged burner, bad ignition or a bad valve.

How do you relight your hot water heater?

typically there is a pilot light underneath the base of the water heater. There should also be a latch or opening so you can light it. Look inside with a flash light so you get a better view before trying to light it. I recommend using long matches or a barbecue liter.

On Demand - Hot Water, Now!?

The stand-alone storage heater is the most common water heater in use today. It is typically powered by natural gas, liquid propane, or electricity, depending upon which of these energies is available and most economical. There is something nice to be said for 35 or 50 gallons of hot water being always at the ready for showers, baths, laundry, or dish washing. The downside of these heaters is exactly that which is so nice about them: 35 to 50 gallons of water which is always kept hot whether it will be used or not. In warm climates or ho weather, hot water usage can drop quite low. It seems counter-intuitive to be cooling the entire house while simultaneously heating water in the water heater. The tankless or on-demand style of water heater offers a viable option to the storage water heater. This type of heater can be used in a number of ways to meet a household’s hot water demands. As the name implies, there is no tank of hot water to be kept warm. Instead the water is heated as it passes through the heater. Only the water that is drawn through the unit is heated. When the hot water tap is turned off, the heater powers down either to off, if it has a piezo ignition system, or to a pilot light. Energy is primarily consumed doing the time of actual water usage. The best tankless heaters run on gas - either natural or liquid propane. The electric units available do not deliver high water volume and generally are relegated to sink and kitchen use. Gas units range from large volume household units (still very small in physical size) to lower volume units for smaller places. Several lower volume units can be located strategically around the home to provide close, on-demand supplies of hot water. This works best when planned into a new home so gas sources can be appropriately located. A tankless water heater can save a home owner 15% or more per year on hot water energy costs. This savings, along with the smaller size and lower carbon footprint, make tankless water heaters something to consider.

How efficient is a light bulb?

An incandescent bulb is 96% efficient as a heater, and 4% efficient as a source of light. A fluorescent bulb is only 60% efficient as a heater, and 40% efficient as a source of light. An LED bulb is only 10-20% efficient as a heater, and 80-90% efficient as a source of light (but that light is usually unidirectionally directed... harder to do diffuse lighting with them).

When the pilot light cut off from the water heater for 2 days do you have to run water for it to reheat?

If the pilot light is on, the heater should come on by itself. If the pilot light is off then it has to be lit. If it will not stay on, the thermocouple is bad.


How do you light the pilot on a 10 year old Teledyne Lars LLG pool heater with an electronic spark?

You don't. If the heater has an electronic spark, then it doesn't have a standing pilot to light. The spark lights the pilot when there is a call for heat, which in turn lights the burners. If the heater is on and the pump is RUNNING, the heater should light automatically when the water temperature is lower than the heat setting.

What is a diesel pre heater warning light mean?

Are you sure its a warning light, and not just and indicator that the pre-heater is on. Diesel engines don't have spark plugs, so in cold weather they should be preheated to acheive combustion. The light will usually GO OUT when the heater is finished heating the engine, and it is ready to start.
