American Flame Recalls Fireplaces to Replace Gas Valves Due to Fire and Explosion Hazards
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
Gas can continue to flow into the fireplace pilot light area after the switch has been turned "off," posing a fire or explosion hazard to consumers.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled fireplaces and contact their dealer for a free repair. The repair involves replacing the fireplace's valve if it leaks gas in the "off" position when tested by a qualified service technician.
