Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Leads to Recall of 60,000 Boilers

While carbon monoxide (CO) detectors are becoming more common in households, the fear of falling victim to carbon monoxide poisoning remains. The odorless but lethal gas claims roughly 1,000 lives every year, according to the National Institute of Health. That’s why anyone with a Triangle Tube boiler should be aware of a recent recall impacting some of the company’s gas boilers. The recall concerns a defect that may cause the boilers to release carbon monoxide. Read on to learn which boilers are impacted and how to stay safe if you have one of the affected products.

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission brief on the recall, some of Triangle Tube’s Prestige Solo, Prestige Excellence, and Aerco Esteem condensing gas boilers manufactured between December 2011 and April 2019 are part of this recall.

Why Are These Boilers Being Recalled?

These boilers are being recalled because, due to delayed ignitions or component damage, the boilers can release carbon monoxide, “posing a risk of serious injury or death,” according to the recall brief.

Triangle Tube reports that two people have died due to CO poisoning associated with these boilers and there are 25 reports of CO leaks from the recalled boilers, which is why it’s imperative you take action immediately if you have one of the impacted boilers.

What To Do If You Have a Recalled Triangle Tube Boiler

If you own one of the recalled boilers, you should immediately contact Triangle Tube to schedule an inspection, and if applicable, they will install a brand new boiler free of charge.

Since there may be a delay before your inspection and/or repair, Triangle Tube urges anyone who is using one of the recalled boilers to ensure they have functioning CO detectors “on each level of their homes and outside sleeping areas.” If you do not have a CO detector, Triangle Tube will ship you one free of charge.

To contact Triangle Tube’s customer service to schedule an inspection or request a CO detector, you can call them at 877-574-5036 or email them at [email protected].
