Approximately 70 VIQUA Solenoid Valve Kits included in residential and commercial UV water treatment systems are being recalled because the solenoid valve can leak electrical current. The recall affects valve kits sold nationwide through plumbing contractors and distributors from May 2018 through October 2019. No injuries have been reported, but consumers should stop using the valves and disconnect power to the water treatment system to receive a free replacement part.
The valve's green coil component can leak electrical current, posing a significant risk of electric shock to anyone who comes into contact with the device during operation or maintenance.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled valve kits, disconnect power to the UV water treatment system and visit VIQUA's website for help inspecting the green coil component attached to the solenoid valve for the production date codes included in the recall. Consumers with the recalled solenoid valve should contact the firm to receive free installation of a replacement coil.
