How to fix a gas fireplace pilot light from going out?
Jackie their is dust inside the ODS chamber located directly behind the pilot. ODS means oxygen depletion system. It thinks their is not enough oxygen in the room and is shutting down. I use a marvelous product called rustbuster. Any HVAC store or ace hardware has it. It comes with a telescoping spout that makes it easy. I just flush the pilot out and let it dry. blow it out with some air and light it. The pilot flame should be Blue and 2 inches long and pretty. The thermo couple on these is expensive and will NOT fix the problem. I worked at an appliance parts store for 11 years. I know what I am talking about.
