| My Heat-N-Glo 8000-TR pilot lights successfully and stays on. However, when I turn on the gas, it burns fine for less than a minute. There's a 'click' coming from the controller as it turns off. I checked the voltage from the thermopile, over 45 mV, so I think it's OK. Any suggestions?

| We had the exact same thing happen with our gas FP. We were told that little dust articles get in the line and cause a block. Carbon Monoxide builds up, and as a safety precaution the heat turns off. We were told to get a can of air like you would use for cleaning a keyboard. You will have to get it from an office supply place. We then blew the line with the can of air..and WALA! It worked. |

| Did you disconnect the line to do this? Where? |
