Carlin is recalling about 110 Williamson and Thermoflo furnaces and boilers equipped with Carlin oil burners. A wiring malfunction can cause the burners to fail to shut off, posing a serious fire hazard. One incident of a burner failing to shut off has been reported, though no injuries have occurred. These units were sold and installed by contractors nationwide between April 2015 and November 2015.
A wiring defect in the burner assembly can prevent the unit from shutting down properly. This continuous operation can lead to overheating and poses a fire hazard to the home.
Consumers should immediately contact Carlin to arrange for a free repair. Consumers who cannot locate their installation date label can also contact Carlin. Carlin is contacting installers directly to make repairs on furnaces that were installed in consumer's homes.
