Wolf Steel is recalling about 600 Napoleon GD3200-P and GD3200B-P propane gas fireplaces because the glass front can shatter during ignition. The recall involves black fireplaces measuring approximately 33 inches tall by 31 inches wide with gold accent designs on the top and bottom. One incident in Canada resulted in cuts to a person's face and neck that required medical attention. These fireplaces were sold at specialty hearth stores nationwide between August 1992 and May 2001. Consumers should stop using the fireplaces immediately and arrange for a free repair kit through a local dealer.
The pressure created when the propane gas ignites can cause the glass front of the fireplace to break or shatter, potentially striking bystanders with glass fragments and causing severe cuts.
Consumers should stop using the recalled fireplaces and contact their local Napoleon Fireplace Hearth Dealer to arrange a service call to have a free upgrade kit installed on their fireplace. The upgrade kit must be installed by a qualified gas appliance technician.
