  Eric BuchananJul 28, 2025
  If your Dura Heat Gas Heater stops running, it could be due to several reasons. The internal temperature might be too high, causing the limit switch to shut down. Ensure the heater's output isn't restricted by obstructions. Another potential cause is a damaged control valve, which would require replacement. Lastly, a buildup of dust or debris inside the heater can cause it to quit; cleaning the inside of the heater might resolve the issue.
