About This Product

Residential wall-mounted gas boilers heat water on demand for homeuse. These units are typically integrated into a home's heating and hot-water system and may be installed in kitchens, utility rooms, or garages.

Why This Is Dangerous

A cracked exhaust duct may allow exhaust gases to enter living spaces. Carbon monoxide exposure can be fatal or cause serious harm without immediate action.

Industry Context

This recall is not described as part of a broader industry pattern in the notice.

Real-World Impact

Homeowners with affected units face the need to stop using the unit and arrange a repair. The process may take weeks and requires access to a certified technician. Alarm installation is advised if the unit remains in service while awaiting repair.

Practical Guidance

How to identify if yours is affected

  1. Locate the boiler and inspect the side label for the model number.
  2. Compare the model number to the affected list: VRS-150, VRS-199, VRP-150, VRP-199, VRS Plus-150, VRS Plus-199, VRP Plus-150, VRP Plus-199, VTS-150, VTS-199, VTP-150, VTP-199.

Where to find product info

What timeline to expect

Repair scheduling and completion typically takes 4-8 weeks from contact to full remedy.

If the manufacturer is unresponsive

  • Document every contact attempt.
  • Consider filing a report with the Consumer Product Safety Commission if the company is unresponsive.

How to prevent similar issues

  • Install and maintain working CO alarms and smoke alarms in the home.
  • Schedule regular maintenance on gas appliances to catch venting issues early.
  • Check recall status before purchasing new gas boilers.
