: I have a 2 year old American water heater. The pilot keeps going out. Changed thermocouple, still keeps going out. : There are times that I watch it after lighting the pilot lite, main burner comes on, it runs for 15- to 30 minutes, and there will be a pop sound and the main burner and pilot just go out. Water will be just luke warm. Other times it will run as it should with hot water for a few days at a time. Contact American and give them the model number sounds like the gas controller is about to give up the ghost. : Why?
