Job Checkin

Came out today to diagnose a hot water heater that is not operating properly. Upon arrival the homeowner stated that she had no hot water this morning. She called her neighbor a retired plumber and he told her there was an issue with the igniter and turned the gas off. I turned the gas back on to see if the system would ignite. The pilot ignited right away and the burners ignited. I let the system run until the water reached the proper temperature. I took a combustion analysis test and received the following readings, o2 is at 10% and the co levels are 9ppm. I turned the temperature dial up to see if the system would fire up again but the pilot went out. I tried to relight the pilot but it continues to fail. I turned the gas back off until the hot water heater can be replaced. The hot water heater did heat for some time before it failed. There is some hot water in the system at this time. Recommend replacing the hot water heater. See estimate.
