R.W. Beckett is recalling about 18,000 Firomatic fusible safety valves used on fuel lines for oil-burning appliances. The valve stem can fail to properly seal or shut off the flow of fuel, which can cause fuel to leak. These valves were sold by HVAC distributors nationwide between September 2011 and September 2016 for approximately $40. Consumers should immediately contact the company for a free repair kit or a replacement valve and free installation.
The valve stem does not seal correctly, allowing fuel to leak out. This leakage poses a fire hazard if the fuel ignites.
Consumers should immediately contact R.W. Beckett for a free repair kit or a replacement valve and free installation.
