- If you have no hot water to your gas hot water system, you may find that the pilot light has gone out. This video gives slow clear instructions on how to re light the gas pilot light on your gas storage hot water system.
If this does not work then may be more wrong than just the pilot light gone out.
You will need to contact your gas technician or Moyle Plumbing & Gasfitting for more advice.

Same haha
Same
As a single mother who has no idea how to be a handyman and suffered with no hot water for 2 days this video saved me!!! Thank youuuu !!!!!
Wow, we love hearing stories like this. So happy that we helped you get hot water. Merry Christmas 🎄
Im a single mum also.
Gas man came and replaced the meter and my hot water went out!!!
I only realised a day later.
No customer service to offer to ignite your gas services after they switch off your gas.
So im out in the freezing cold pitch black and its been over 10 years since I had last ignited the hot water myself.
This video refreshed me and helped me ignite it on my 3rd attempt.
Thankyou. Feeling happy now.
I called my ex husband but did not need him. He can stay away😅
I am an age pensioner (widowed), and I thank you for this information. I had been trying for ages to relight my hot water service, but didn't know I had to depress the big button. Thankyou, thankyou!
Thank you! This helped me greatly. 😀👌🏻After having my gas lines refitted with new ones, I had gas to the heater/oven elements in the home but no hot water 🙁Calling up my local gas company, I thought there would be delays or worse me having to fork out costs to get it repaired! Luckily I came across your video( TH-cam to the rescue again😂)All is restored now and no out of pocket expenses💵💵 😃🙌
Bloody heck mate, I spent 15 minutes trying to start it, didn’t realise you needed to twist it cheers bloke!
That’s great. Thanks for your reply. We set lots of positive responses from this TH-cam video. Glad to have been able to help 👍

Thank you
You Beauty, that saves me $120.00 in a few seconds. Last time it happened to me, that’s how much I got charged in Sydney Australia. Good bless you and thank you.
That’s great, thanks for your comment. Pleased to help
Practical video. Useful.
Thank you for your positive feedback
Perfect instructor. Fixed it in 1min .
Life saver thanks heaps
Never would have thought someone would call my instructions perfect, but I will take this compliment. Really happy that we helped you to get hot water 👍
2 in the morning.. ain't no way I was calling someone out ahaha. The shield piece didn't even have the instructions on it 😮 thanks for the video
Thank you - just reignited the hot water system following watching your video. It wasn’t nice to return home after a week away to no hot water! Many thanks!
Thanks for your reply. Glad we could help
Glad we got you hot water quickly. Thanks for your reply
Really appreciate it, thank you very much mate 🙏
Your welcome 🙏
On that same Rheem system (Model 311170N0) do you have video on replacing the Piezo Igniter as mine is not clicking, thus not starting. The part no is 890202 but I'm buggered if I can figure out how to remove the old one. I presume the top housing come off ??? Cheers (Edit: Don't worry, I found the screw on the top cover under the 15 years of dust / detritus and fixed the igniter)
Thankyou helped me heaps🥰
Thankyou very much for your help😊
It was very helpful 🙏👍👏
Thank you for this video. We havent had running hot water for two days. Do I ever have to turn it off? Or do we just let it keep burning continuously?
Thanks very useful video 😊
thanks mate your a legend, I was about to call someone as I was having no luck, then your video came along and you gave me all the know how I needed, I owe you a beer
That’s great mate, happy to have helped although I won’t say no to a beer one day 👌
Does this affect the acrtual heating system too. I have hot water but my heating is the issue where the blower wont turn in and was wondering if theres a conmection between the two.
Thanks Mate! You’re the lifesaver just fixed mine 🍺🍺
Thank you bro appreciate your video it help me out
That’s great & thanks for letting me know
Lifesaver. Thank you!
Please to have helped. Thanks for the feedback
Thanks so much it’s helps a lot
Brilliant it did the trick thank you
Thanks for help mate
Legend! I was trying the exact same thing just couldn't see the flame so I used my camera phone to get a better view and bam all sorted!
How good 👍 Thanks for letting me know that my help was successful 👌
Thank you so much for your tutorial. How long the gas light on? It will turn of by itself or we have to turn it off
thanks so much, but I have a question should it turn off it self automatic after finishing using hot water !
Thanks mate… appreciate this💖
That’s great & appreciate that you gave positive feedback & letting us know.
Hi, quick question, do I need to turn the gas valve to off before lighting? Thankyou
@@mahreenrana9048 yes
Yay I fixed it myself. Make sure you turn it around onto 5 after you have depressed the ignition and *
Thank you so much for this video!! Saved me from calling a plumber for help. It's getting cold now and I need my hot shower
This was super useful. I was following the instructions ont he back panel, but couldn't get it to go properly. this did the job perfectly
Thanks for letting us know. Really pleased to have helped & hopefully save you a Gas Fitter call out 👌
Thankyou I got the same system
Thank you, very appreciative of this video. I needed to find out how to locate the pilot light as it was difficult to find in my Thermann system. It enabled me to know whether my system was still working or not. If I was in Qld I'd certainly call Moyle!
Thank you for your comment, it is very encouraging to know we have been able to help people without the cost of a gas fitter attending. If your system continues to go out, you may have a component starting to fail in which you will then need to contact your local guy.
@@Cheryl63100 much thanks!
Thank you so much. You're an absolute champion.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Pleased we were able to help.
On the instruction it says turn the knob to the "dot" position and wait for 5 min (to release left over gas??) before ignite the spark?
Hey Mate, The water temperature is quite low in our aquamax hot water system. I roateted that levels from 4 to 5 but no significant difference.. is there any DIY steps that can be done before calling someone? I read one method of getting tank empty to remove sediments but don't know how to do it. Can you make a video about that if that's DIY possible?
Cheers mate, live saver
Does it have to be on max number or 1 is fine?
Thank you so much.
Hi can you tell me if I need the duraflo on or off
Thanks Mate. Strangely the place looked exactly my place where the heater is located😅
Can you do a video on how to fix 3:02 hot water pipes hammering please
Thank you good man
Ahh you Legend!! thanks mate
Thank you kind sir
Very useful thanks
Thanks Tim for your positive comment. Glad we were able to help
Can you help me figure out how to adjust the heat??
A Child can install this unit. Great quality!!
Life saver thankyou
Pleased to have helped
Hi… do I leave the light on at all times or it is good to turn it off when I don’t need the hot water to save the energy?
I just took a 🚿 shower without hot water 🙃 thanks mate for your instruction, saved my life
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Pleased we were able to help.
You saved me 🙏
Thanks for your reply. Glad we could help
Thank you so much
You’re very welcome. Thank you for your comment
After fixing, just let the fire burn like that and close the gate? We dont need to turn off anything? Thanks
Good man 👍🏻
