I hope someone here can get us in the right direction. When running the water heater on gas it can be fine for a while (even a day) then out of nowhere when trying to reignite it will keep clicking a few times and then we hear a loud POOF and flame shoots out of the vent.
We have cleaned the burner tube and the dealer has cleaned the burner tube. It is at a dealer (not who we bought it from) for the second time with this issue and they still can not find out what is causing it. Apparently it has not done it while there.
We usually turn it off the gas and end up using it on electric, but will need to run the A/C, coffee maker and other appliances on our upcoming trip.
All other appliances work well on gas (fridge and stove) with no issues.
Any idea what is causing this? What should the dealer (or us) be looking for? How can it be fixed?
Thanks
