Hi folks! The pilot light on my portable Calor gas heater fails to remain on a free ignition. Could be a “thermo couple” or just blocked with dust? Does anyone repair or service them? TIA.

Could also be a build up of Carbon Monoxide!

Is the area well ventilated?

Try cleaning the gas pilot light with a toothbrush first …it may take a couple of goes . If you have a row of “ heads” brush them as well.
