About 20,000 gas fireplaces, stoves, inserts, and log sets sold under brands including Hearth and Home Technologies, Heat-N-Glo, Heatilator, Outdoor Lifestyles, and Quadra Fire are being recalled. The gas valve in these units can leak, creating a risk that the escaping gas could ignite. These products were sold at fireplace specialty stores nationwide between May 2014 and July 2014 for between $1,200 and $8,000. Consumers should stop using the units and turn off the gas supply immediately to arrange for a free inspection and repair.
A defect in the internal gas valve can cause fuel to leak into the surrounding area. This buildup of natural gas or propane poses a significant risk of fire or explosion if it comes into contact with an ignition source.
Consumers should immediately stop using the gas fireplaces, stoves, inserts and log sets, turn off the gas to the units and contact the fireplace store where the unit was purchased to arrange for a free inspection and, if necessary, valve replacement. The firm's dealers are contacting known purchasers.
