CPSC, Weil-McLain Announce Recall of Ultra 155 & 230 Gas Boilers
03540 · Recalled 2003-05-13 · CPSC page
Description
The Ultra 155 & Ultra 230 Gas Boilers are condensing high-efficient gas-fired boilers for space heating. They have 93% operating efficiency and use a cast aluminum, mono block heat exchanger packaged in a glossy silver/flat black jacket.
Hazards
Weil-McLain has determined that the gas valve mounting screws on the recalled boilers may have not been fully tightened during the assembly process and may have come loose in transportation. Weil-McLain is concerned that loose gas fittings could result in leaking gas, fire and/or explosions, that could cause bodily injuries or property damage.
Reported injuries
None reported.
Remedy
Weil-McLain is providing distributors and installers with a "Safety Notice" package for each boiler containing instructions, replacement screws and a reimbursement form. Installers are also asked to tighten the gas valve union. Installers will be reimbursed $50 for each boiler they inspect.
