Why does my ventless gas heater keep going out?

The heater won’t operate properly if the pilot flickers, is too weak or goes out, and the cause could also be blockages in the pilot tube. Another cause of a weak pilot is a faulty thermocouple. It’s a heat sensor placed next to the pilot flame that signals the gas valve to stay open when the flame is burning.

Once the gas is ignited on your cooktop, the flame is spread by the burner cap so that it comes out all the small holes in the burner head.
