Gas Fireplace Shuts Off After 20 Minutes

We have a gas fireplace in our living room.

Gas fireplace shuts off after 20 minutes.

After that you should turn the key a half turn. The pilot lamp was blue. Gas fireplace shuts off and pilot goes out. Always worked fine for the 8 years we ve been here.

Today i turn it on and after a few minutes the fireplace went out all by itself. The pilot gets great contact with the thermocouple when the fireplace is off and its just the pilot lit but when i turn on the fireplace the pilot light gets a little smaller still a strong blue and does. Problem started after gas to the house had been turned off for the day. Any air in the line should be looooong gone.

15 20 minutes and other times an hour or two. If any one component fails then the gas flow will shut off until that failure is rectified. After it goes out and i attempt to relight it the burners will only stay lit for about 5 mins. The fireplace does not have an automatic tempature shut off.

You need to remember to turn it counterclockwise. I have a heatilator dls 18 gas fireplace installed in 1993. After doing some research however i now have basic knowledge about gas fires and have successfully fixed my gas fire. It shuts down after 20 30 minutes of operation pilot goes off we moved into a new place and we started the fireplace today.

So guessing it s not a heat sensor. It should say on until i manually turn it off i found that when i first light it the burners stay lit for maybe 15 20 mins. That was a month ago. I reach in to th.

The latter kept going out after about half an hour even when the dial showed it as on. It seemed to work a few times but now it will last for maybe 20 minutes and shut off. Heat n glo fireplace fire goes out after a while after 20 min or sometimes up to 1 hour but pilot stays on. To make sure the key is in the right position you can jingle it a little until the lock slid into its place in the keyhole.

After about 20 minutes the flame extinguished. Though i don t worry too much about carbon monoxide poisoning i figured there must be some safety device to shut off the gas valve. This action will start the gas flow into the fireplace logs.
