Why does my pilot light keep going out?
A bad thermocouple is the most common reason — it fails to sense the flame and shuts off the gas. Other causes include a dirty pilot orifice or a draft blowing out the flame.
Is it safe to relight the pilot myself?
If you have a manual pilot and follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, it's generally safe. However, if it won't stay lit, call a technician.
Can I still use my furnace if the pilot is out?
No — if the pilot is out, the furnace won't operate. The safety system prevents gas from flowing without a confirmed flame.
