Hi,
My furnace, which is located in the attic, gets its pilot flame blown out every now and then (usually on windy days). I was wondering if there was a way to convert it to electronic ignition.
Thanks for any suggestions.

there is a device called a pilot relighter, a sparker that comes on when pilot flame sensor fails to detect flame.

How does it press the button that bypasses the thermocouple? :)
