Focal Point Gas fire problems

[janner10]

Can anyone shine any light.

I have a focal point panoramic gas fire. The pilot is nice and strong and the valve holds in first time every time with no issue which suggests the t/c is ok although not got out the meter as yet.

When I turn the control knob from the pilot position to the low flame position the pilot just peters out immediately - there is no life from the burner at all.

This is now the 2nd focal point fire with this fault in the house - both with the same fault is perhaps too much of a co-incidence.

Any ideas?

Focal point are shyte.

But you won't get advice on this here.

If you're a registered gas man join the Combustion Chamber section.

As stated you need an RGI to diagnose and repair the fault.

But how old are the fires and when were they last serviced?
