Boiler pilot light wont ignite - Water Heaters

TAKE A SHPO VAC AND CLEAN AREA. MAKE SURE YOU PAY SPECIAL ATT. TO THE PILOT LIGHT. FIND BUTTON HOLD IN AND IGNITE DONT LET GO WHEN IT LIGHTS FOR AT LEAST FIFTEEN SEC.. YOU MIGHT ALSO HAVE TO TURN THE THERMASTAT OR KNOB TO PILOT FIRST. AFTER IT HAS LIT TURN UP FLAME

The plumbers repair should be guaranteed, give him a call back.
It sounds to me that the pilot flame needs to be adjusted or the thermocouple is not aligned properly or there is a draft that is blowing out the pilot.
Good luck...

I would suggest that you check all wiring connections to gas valve, ignitor induced drarft motor if so equipped, flame sensor and thermostat . It sounds to me like you probably need a new ignitor. As for the leak see if you can isolate where it is coming from. You may have to remove some of the casing to find it. It may just be a loose fitting that can be removed taped with teflon tape or coated with pipe thread compound and reinstalled. It is nearly impossible to tell how hard the repair will be until you know the source. Hope this helps. Thanks
