Trane has recalled approximately 100,600 XB300 and American Standard Silver SI split system outdoor cooling units. The grounding screws in these units may lack the necessary threading to provide proper grounding, which can lead to electrical issues. These gray units with black grated fronts were sold by independent distributors and dealers nationwide between February 2010 and March 2014. Consumers with affected units should immediately turn off the power at the main breaker and contact Trane for a free inspection and repair.
The ground screws used in these units do not have the required two threads for sufficient grounding, creating a pathway for electrical current to cause a shock to consumers. While no incidents have been reported, the defect poses a serious risk of electrical injury.
Consumers should immediately turn off the cooling unit via the main breaker switch and check the model information. Consumers with recalled air conditioning systems should contact Trane or their installer or service dealer for instructions on scheduling a free inspection and repair.
