The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) recalled ECR International’s hot water boilers due to a risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. The recall was posted on July 13, 2023.
Why were the boilers recalled?
According to the CPSC, the recalled residential boilers could be missing the flue inspection cover plate. Flue gas is the emitted material produced when fossil fuels such as natural gas may contain pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, mercury, and carbon dioxide. Without the flue inspection cover plate, consumers can be exposed to combustion flue gases and get carbon monoxide poisoning.
Approximately 1,745 units were recalled.
