Customer Testimonials - Reviews For Portland Plumbing Plus

Miracle From a Plumber

Rachel G.
Portland, OR 
I've lost count of how many times our kitchen drain clogged and how many times we invited a plumber over for same issue. We been having this same problem for forever. It's an old house (over 100 yrs) The plumber from Portland Plumbing Plus spent some time to trace the drain pipes, then found that our kitchen sink has been draining into the sump pump in our basement. That's the problem. We called Portland  Plumbing Plus to repair a clogged kitchen sink and it turned out to be a miracle. Who would have thought that the problem we been having for years is as a result of wrong plumbing. All we needed was a repipe. P3 installed the lines properly and the clogging problem disappeared. We used to call a plumber frequently for clog issues but not anymore. We just celebrated 9 months of no clog. Wow! this is like a miracle!

Question: My Water Heater Pilot Light Wont Stay Lit

Question
Yesterday my water heater went out and didn't come on, so I replace the thermocouple and the gas valve and the pilot now wont stay lit, but the old thermocouple was shorter than the new one, been the new thermocouple longer than the old one could that be why the pilot doesn't stay on?

Answer
The length of the thermocouple has nothing to do with the problem you're having. The longer thermocouple is the universal type with longer lead. Just uncoil as much lead as you need for the installation, then roll the excess in a tight roll and tuck it behind your gas tube.

I suspect that you didn't install the thermocouple properly. There are other possibilities though but if you didn't install the thermocouple properly against the pilot, it wont heat and open gas control valve.

I suggest that you do the following:
1. Make sure that the end of the thermocouple is raised at least 1/4 inch above pilot lit to heat properly.  Use a pair of pliers to bend pilot and thermocouple 1/4 closer to each other
2. While igniting the pilot, press down and hold the pilot button for 30 seconds. Pressing down and holding the button on gas control valve for 30 seconds allows the gas to enter pilot to heat thermocouple.

Other Common Problems Why Pilot Wont Stay Lit

  • No gas
  • Low gas pressure
  • Blocked pilot line
  • Faulty thermocouple - note that some thermocouples may have factory faults. So the one you just bought could be faulty.
  • Faulty thermostat
  • Air in gas line
  • Moth and dirt in gas line...
