My pilot goes out intermittently when the outdoor temp is below about 5 degrees F. My heating guy wants to replace the gas valve and has already replaced the thermocouple. It relights easily with a match.
1. Why would a gas valve turn off the pilot only on cold days?
2. Is it time to replace the boiler? Put the repair money towards a replacement instead.
I have a Burnham 208 165,000BTU out natural gas boiler manufactured in 1983 and put in service in 1986. It runs six zones and provides adequate heat.
