We noticed no hot water this eve and went down to check. The trip light was flashing and I pushed it to reset. The unit came right back on and began running, but I am not sure if the pilot is still lit. Would it restart if the pilot would have gone out? Anyone have any ideas why a fairly new unit would suddenly shut off on it's own? If it restarted when I reset it, should that be OK or is there something more to be concerned with? Any ideas or knowledge would be appreciated! I have a Beckett oil fired water heater that was just put in new about a year ago. We noticed no hot water this eve and went down to check.
