Excellent point. It could, for example, switch off gas lines at various checkpoints. I wonder how that might that affect appliances? For example, if a hot water heater is heating and the flame goes out, but then the gas comes back on is the heater smart enough to re-ignite the gas (or shut it off)?
- omegaworks 12y agoMost things with a pilot light make use of a thermocouple to keep the gas from leaking out when no flame is present.
