    Water heater pilot lite
    I have lit the pilot on my water heater 3 days in a row, it keeps going out,it stays lit a while then I find it out again. What could it be?

    Hi Mberto

    It sounds like the thermocouple needs to be replaced. Go to YouTube and type in "replace water heater thermocouple"... pretty easy job for most people!
