CPSC, Brookdale International Systems Inc. Announce Recall of Emergency Escape Smoke Hoods

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The hazard

The smoke hood is a one-time emergency use personal safety device, that provides quick temporary protection from smoke in the event of a fire. In some instances, consumers purchased the smoke hoods for protection from tear gas or chemical warfare agents, but the smoke hoods should be used only to provide protection from smoke caused by fires.

What to do

Consumers who purchased the EVAC-U8 emergency escape smoke hood for protection from tear gas and chemical warfare agents may return the product to Brookdale International Systems, Inc. 1-8755 Ash Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6T 6P3, for a refund, including the cost of postage.
