A gas heater uses a spark to ignite the gas and create a flame. Once the gas is ignited, it continues to burn and produce heat without the need for a continuous spark. Therefore, after the initial spark, there is no need for it to remain lit as long as the gas is burning. This is why you may only see a spark when the gas heater is turned on, and not a continuous flame. **
