Electric showerhead hot water heaters
Published September 12, 2025 · Recall initiated: May 7, 2002
What's the hazard
The nozzle can be easily unscrewed, exposing the uninsulated heater coil. The heater coil's grounding screw does not sufficiently reduce the current through the water, posing an electrocution and shock hazard to the bather.
What to do
Consumers should stop using these showerhead hot water heaters immediately and return them to the store where purchased, for a refund.
