The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, along with boiler manufacturers U.S. Boiler Co., New Yorker Boiler Co. and Crown Boiler Co., announced voluntary recalls of boiler models due to carbon monoxide poisoning hazards. Consumers should stop using these products unless otherwise instructed. And be aware that it is illegal to resell or attempt to resell a recalled consumer product.
REASON: The air pressure switch can fail to shut down the burners when there is a blockage in the vent system, allowing the recalled boiler models to emit excessive amounts of carbon monoxide and posing a CO poisoning hazard to the consumer.
