Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Emerson Air Comfort Products is recalling about 2,800 Tommy Bahama "The Copa Breeze" 52-inch outdoor ceiling fans because the blade brackets can break. If these brackets fail, the heavy fan blades can fall and strike people below. The recall includes distressed bronze fans with model number TB311DBZ and specific three-letter date codes, sold at lighting stores, Amazon.com, and EmersonFans.com between April 2010 and July 2012 for about $350. Consumers should stop using these fans immediately and contact the company for a free in-home repair or a do-it-yourself repair kit.

Risk

The metal brackets holding the fan blades can fatigue and snap, causing the blades to detach and fall while the fan is in operation. Emerson has received three reports of blades falling, including one incident where a consumer suffered a head laceration after being hit by a falling blade.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using the recalled Tommy Bahama outdoor ceiling fans and turn off the power to the unit.
  2. Check the fan for the model number TB311DBZ on the motor housing and look for the Tommy Bahama brand name embossed on the lower motor housing.
  3. Locate the identification label on top of the motor housing and check the three-letter date code in the lower right corner. Affected codes are: AJL, BAA, BAB, BAC, BAD, BAE, BAF, BAG, BAH, BAI, BAJ, BAK, BAL, BBA, BBB, BBC, BBD, BBE, BBF, BBG, BBH, BBI, BBJ, BBK, BBL, BCA, BCB, BCC, and BCD.
