I recently replaced the LPG meter on my home. After completing the installation, the gas cooktop and clothes dryer both work fine, but the water heater and space heater pilot lights won't light (no gas?). Do these appliances contain some sort of low-pressure shut-off that needs to be reset before restoring gas flow?

Help! (These cold showers are difficult to get used to)

Air may have entered the line while you were replacing the meter. Is the water heater and space heater father away from the meter than the stove? Purge the line by removing the drip leg cap or briefly opening the line close to the appliance. You can purge the air by just holding the pilot light button down but it will take some time..
