Gas Water Heater Repair in River Forest, IL

A yellow burner flame indicates incomplete combustion from dirt in the burner ports. Melvin's Water Heater Service removes the burner assembly and cleans each port with a wire brush. The draft hood must maintain negative pressure to pull combustion gases up the vent. Technicians check for spillage with a smoke test. One paragraph covers the thermocouple and its position in the pilot flame.
After repairs the water temperature is verified at one hundred twenty degrees. Call (833) 774-1697.
