Pilot Keeps Turning off
i bought a A.O. Smith water heater about 2 yrs ago and 6 months ago, my pilot kept turning off. So I called up the company that installed it, and they changed the thermalcouple and the gas valve. Problem still continued, then i took the little filter thing on the bottom of the tank and the problem went away. But now it has comeback, i called the company again and they said there is another filter inside the bottom of the tank. I don't want them to come here again and charge me another $100 an hr just to look at it, and not do anything for me. Does anyone have a solution to this problem? Or any troubleshooting on how to clean the filter inside?
Thank you, any suggestion is much appreciated.
