My hot water heater is only 5 years old, we woke up the other day to cold water for a shower, I went out and checked the heater and found the pilot light off ( it can not blow out, no wind can get to it ) so i relit it and all was ok for the first batch of hot water, I went out again and pilot light was off ( I installed a new thermo couple ) relit it and it did the same thing ( first batch of hot water but wont relite for second batch ) I am wondering what could knock pilot light out ? the thermo couple end is glowing so i know I have it in a good flame, also milivolts are fine when i checked my meter. any thoughts ? Thanks !!
