    Turn off the gas. Call the gas company or the fire department. My fire dept. is literally five minutes away. Employees will check out your gas line, pressure, and valves. They don’t want any explosions so they should make sure you are familiar with all the parts, have a convenient extinguisher, and that you know how to troubleshoot the next time. Most plumbers can also work with gas lines, but not all. Be safe! Jewell
  • When was it last checked by a proper chimney sweep or plumber? Should be inspected at least annually in the late summer to early fall prior to use. Call your gas company, the Fire Department, a licensed chimney sweep or plumber licensed to do this work asap. No point in taking chances with your family or your home.

    Could be the thermocouple or gas valve. Call the gas company. They can check it out and usually for free.
