Modify the design to be gravity feed. I had a gravity fed water heater in my boat that was 30 years old and still functionl when I got it. Usually its a pressure senssor that stops water fflow if pressure goes low. The idea being if low pressue results in low flow which would end up getting too hot then it shuts off water entirely. Change design so only high temp will shut off gas nd allow water flow regardless. Only downside is cold water if gas is shut off.
