Robertshaw 7000 Series Gas Control Valve

Published September 3, 2024 · Recall initiated: December 22, 2004

What's the hazard

Fire hazard. If the pilot light goes out, the gas valve could stick in an open position, permitting gas to continue to flow. This can result in a gas explosion and fire, which could result in severe personal injury or property damage.

What to do

Free repair or replacement if necessary. If you smell gas near the appliance or in the building, immediately leave the area and call your gas company or a certified gas technician to investigate the cause. If you do not smell gas, check the pilot lights on your gas appliances. If any pilot lights are out, do not attempt to relight. Have the appliance examined by a qualified technician. Have the date code of your 7000 series gas valve ready when you contact Robertshaw.
