SOURCE: Can I replace the pilot light on a Vulcan

Hello...how old is the unit? Today it is very common for gas appliances to have electric igniters instead of a pilot light. Unless you are familiar with gas controll/regulator valves I would not recommend trying this yourself. I believe it is more likely a faulty or dirty thermo-couple. Again , unless you are familiar with the opperation of gas supplies ,controls ,etc. DO NOT ATTEMP to do this yourself!!! Gas is very dangerous for the less than well informed! Call a service pro or speak to and ask for the assistance of a knowledgable friend.

Vulcan freeloader 260 suddenly turns off after heating to temperature. Control unit was just replaced but still doing the same. I was told by another person it is the thermo couple but the fitter said

The thermocouple makes sense, if it does not send enough electricity to the control unit it will shut off. The thermocouple was probably moved when a new control unit was installed. Check to be sure the pilot flame touches the thermocouple, if not realign it else replace it.

Can't light pilot light on hot water service. Gas to property is connected as the gas stove works.

There should be a trouble shoot guide on the hot water tank. I have had to do this many times. You just need to read the trouble shooting guide & be very careful. I hope this works for you.

We are getting a brown colour in our hot water from our Vulcan freeloader (assume this is where its from anyway). Is this a fixable problem or will we need to look at a new unit? The current unit is about...

unfortunately there is no fix other than replacing the tank, it has a lot of rust buildup inside over 18 years, which is a very long time for a hot water tank today.
