Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this pilot assembly include the gas injector?
A: No, this part is supplied without the injector. You will need to reuse the one from your old assembly or purchase a new one separately.
Q: My fryer's pilot light keeps going out. Will this fix it?
A: A faulty pilot assembly is a very common cause for this issue. If other components like the thermocouple are fine, this part should resolve the problem.
Q: Can I fit this part myself?
A: For your safety and to comply with regulations, all work on gas appliances must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
