CPSC, American Standard Companies Announce Recall of Gas-Electric Heating/Cooling Units

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

The hazard

A gas leak can occur if there is a crack in the gas valve body near the inlet pipe connection. A build-up of gas in the burner compartment of the unit could occur, which could be ignited by an internal spark.

What to do

Consumers with recalled units are being contacted by the independent dealers that installed them. Consumers who think they have recalled units and have not yet been contacted, should call their installer for more information. Using their model and serial numbers, consumers also can visit the firms' Web sites to confirm if their unit is included in the recall. Consumers with recalled units should contact their installer to arrange for a free inspection.
