Lennox Hearth Products is recalling about 11,500 Lennox and Superior brand natural gas and propane fireplaces. Defective gas connectors within the units can leak fuel, creating a serious fire risk. There have been eight reports of leaking gas connectors, though no injuries have been reported yet. These fireplaces were sold at fireplace stores and HVAC retailers nationwide between April 2012 and December 2012 for prices ranging from $1,200 to $9,000. Lennox is offering a free inspection and replacement of the faulty connector.
The internal fireplace gas connectors are defective and can leak gas into the home environment. This buildup of gas poses a significant fire hazard and risk of explosion if ignited.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled gas fireplaces, turn off the gas to the fireplace and contact Lennox Hearth Products for a free inspection and replacement of the leaking gas connector. Lennox Hearth Products and its distributors are contacting purchasers directly.
