    Mine had same issue...if you take the front off and look at the gas line that feeds the pilot light just down from where the pilot is is a hole...mine had dust in it...that was causing the issue for me.

Yes,pilot should be adjustable, but problem may be dirty accumulation on pilot fixture. With gas SUPPLY off, remove the grill and clean the pilot orifice and anything that might block air getting to the flame.
Check the hole where gas comes out of the pilot for accumulation of deposits. DON'T enlarge this hole beyond its original size.
On adjusting, you look at the gas valve and find a cap or screw that is identified PILOT adj.The actual adjustment screw is sometimes under the top cap or screw. If you're not sure, call someone who is knowledgeable.
Turning this slightly will adjust flame. don-ohio

SOURCE: Pilot adjustment on Williams wall heater

The insert sounds like the cap covering the adjustment screw. Pin hole is for cap removal. Wondering why flame is so high?! Shouldn't have orange flame. If heater doesn't light with lower flame... thermocouple (thing that the flame heats up) may be bad.

SOURCE: kozy world propane wall heater. The pilot light will work

Sounds like you have a common problem with infrared heaters. They are very dust sensitive and they will light and then go out when they are dusty. If you have already tried to blow it out at home you need to take the heater to your propane dealer who will take the heater apart and blow it out correctly. They will then hook it up to their gas line and make sure that the problem is fixed. I hope that you haven't blown up into the bottom of the heater where the gas line is connected. There is a diaphragm up in there and if you blow into it you risk messing it up to where it won't work at all.

SOURCE: Kozy World propane wall heater

The ceramic "bricks" need to be heated evenly. Since 3 are good, I would have to assume the other two have a restriction. Maybe a spider in the orifices, If  you can access the "jet" where gas comes out, try using a paper clip or something similar to clear any blockage. If that wont do it, pull the burner, remove each orifice and clear. Good Luck

Testimonial: "Thank you very much for the info. There was some trash around the opening of the 2 jets. I cleaned them out with a tip cleaner and now it works fine."

My kozy world gsn 3011 keeps going out , blows out pilot light

It sounds like there may be an issue with your Kozy World GSN 3011 gas heater. A common cause of the pilot light going out is a problem with the thermocouple, a safety device that senses when the pilot light is lit and sends a signal to the gas valve to allow gas to flow to the main burner. Another possible cause could be a blockage in the gas line or a malfunctioning gas valve.
It is important to have a qualified technician check and repair your heater to ensure safe operation. Attempting to repair a gas heater without proper knowledge and training can be dangerous and may result in injury or damage to the unit.

Pilot light is to high and all burner are red but the center and it burnes blue on a list world knw321 what could be problem and how do I adjust the pilot light it is to high

You've got a red flame then you need to shut down the unit IMMEDIATELY!!!!! This due to incomplete combustion and could be due to a lack of fresh oxygen entering into the unit, or the units exhaust is block somewhere in the line. Shut it down now and call an expert!!!!! Gas Flames Yellow vs Blue Gas Flame Colour Temperature

Kozy world heater

sounds like you need to get the heater serviced. they should pull pilot assembly out and clean pilot orfice and clean any dust etc out of unit .have them make sure gas pressure is correct also with a manometer . also make sure vent is clear and no rust holes between combustion air and exhaust passage . pulling in exhaust in combustion air will make pilot go out lack of oxygen. or weak thermocoupler or pilot generator also possible.

My pilot light on my five burner kozy world heater comes on and burns full and blue but itermittently sputters and shuts down when burners kick on.

From what you have described there appears to be dust, dirt or pet hair in the pilot or the pilot tubing, as well as the Oxygen Depletion Sensor (ODS). OR your heater may be the wrong gas type. In other words, you have Propane Gas and the heater is a Natural Gas heater (or vise versa). Look for the manufacturers tag on the side or back of the heater. It will tell you the model number, serial number and gas type. Even with this, on rare occasions, the manufacturer's plate may be incorrect. The only way to be sure is to remove the front cover of the heater and look at the control valve. It should be marked LPG or NG.

I just bought a brand new Kozy World blue flame heater and the pilot light will not stay lit and when it is lit, it goes out as soon as I turn up the nob.

The thermocouple is bad or not aligned properly. It is the metal bar in front of the pilot light. This bar senses the heat put off by the pilot light. If it does not get hot it will not allow the gas to flow. You either need to align it so that it is in front of the pilot light and receives enough heat to allow the gas valve to operate or possibly the thermocouple has gone bad and needs replacing.

It could also be that you are not waiting long enough. The thermocouple must sense the heat for at least one minute or more before it will let the gas valve turn on. Turn everything to off for at least five minutes. Re-light the pilot light and let it burn for at least one minute and then try turning the knob to on.
