Oatsie Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 I have a Pelonis Superser Portable Propane heater that won't stay lit. Yes, the propane tank is full. Any recommendation for a propane repair person, preferably that speaks English and makes house calls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostlylost Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 99% of the time the problem is the thermocouple. It is a safety device. When the probe which is near or in the flame is hot it sends an electric current to keep the gas valve open. When it is cold it shuts the gas valve. It is a simple replacement (usually) but finding the exact one for this heater might be difficult. A couple of examples Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibarra Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 I would think that an electrician/plumber would be able to help you. Our electrician/plumber fixed a small heater for us several years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 At the corner of Felipe Angeles and Colon (mountain side in Ajijic) is a repair shop that keeps both of my propane heaters in tip top shape. It is not easy to get to and the parking is very limited which is why I get the heaters serviced when snowbirds are not here. I am not sure if he speaks English or not. He just does exceptional work imho. Refrigeration Camarena, Center, Ajijic (monitor.com.mx) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
