Question
Last week when I went to turn on the heat it blew only cold air. I called in a technician and they lit the pilot and stated that everything was fine. Now the pilot is out again and the fan is working properly and I would like to avoid the 75 dollar service charge but I am unsure of where the pilot is located.There is no owners manual for my Old westinghouse FGAU 100 AB that I can find online. Any assistance that you can provide would be appreciated!!
Answer
I did a simple search and found this...

The thing to worry about is the fact it went out. A pilot that went out can be a sign of other problems with the furnace, or ventilation in the room where the furnace is located. If you have to keep relighting, then there is a problem that will have to be addressed.
