Reply To: Hot water pilot going out

Kirby: The Poof that follows the heating cycle of your water heater, is caused by to lean a fuel mixture to the main burner. Try closing the air shutter at the venturi of the main burner, this should help. If your gas valve has a pilot adjustment, turn it up a hair and see what happens. Lots of luck….Bud..
