Why is my furnace pilot light out?
A furnace pilot light can go out because of a draft, a dirty or blocked pilot assembly, a problem with the thermocouple or gas control, or a temporary interruption in the gas supply. Older furnaces may have a standing pilot light, while many newer models use electronic ignition and do not have a pilot light to relight.
Safety first: If you smell gas, do not attempt to relight the pilot or operate electrical switches. Leave the building and call your gas utility’s emergency line from a safe location; call 911 if there is immediate danger. If you do not smell gas, check the furnace manual for model-specific guidance. If the pilot will not stay lit or you are unsure what to do, turn the system off if it is safe and contact a qualified gas technician. Do not bypass safety devices.
