Talk about how to replace the armored thermocouple in the water heater

Armoured thermocouple is an important part of water heater, but perhaps because of a long time of use, or failure, we have to learn to replace the armoured thermocouple of water heater, the process is as follows:

1. First of all, turn off the gas and ensure that the gas controller must be in the closed position.

2. Disconnect the armored thermocouple and two gas pipes from the valve, and the burner should be easy enough to come out, because it is not tightly connected, or under the clamp inside the combustion chamber, in order to disconnect the armored thermocouple and gas pipe link, be sure to remove the three nuts connecting them to the valve.

3, connected to the end of the pilot gas supply pipe, at the other end, can be pulled out from the slide into the direction of the component.

4, repeat 2-3 process to plant new armoured thermocouple, slide back to guide components, armoured thermocouple with a clip from the title received guide gas source, and then put back in place, the burner must use open end wrench or is adjustable wrench, in order to lead and gas pipe from the title received the burner, and will guide gas tube and the valve from the beginning.

5, turn on the gas and reproduce the light, be sure to clarify the device, understand the light, pay attention to any gas leakage, put the soap on the joint, because if you see any bubbles when the main burner is opened, this is a very serious problem.

The above is the process of replacing the armored thermocouple of water heater. If there are other problems, we must find professional technical personnel for on-site guidance and supervision to avoid problems.
