I have a Rheem Power Vent water heater tank. I don't see the flame anymore. Is there a way to re-ignite the flam again? Any help is appreciated.

Power vents are tricky for a DIY. There are sensors like a pressure switch on the blower, etc. Do you have the factory trouble shooting and repair manual?

In fact, is your blower running? If it is, then the pressure switch is one possiblity. Does your model water heater have diagnositic lights on a control panel?
