Published May 23, 2014 · Recall initiated: March 27, 2009

What's the hazard

Excess gas can accumulate in the firebox if the pilot light is not lit or has gone out. When consumers relight the pilot light, the accumulated gas can ignite with force and shatter the glass fireplace doors posing a serious laceration hazard.

Consumers should stop using the recalled fireplaces immediately, shut off the gas supply to the fireplace, and contact Central Fireplace to arrange for a free replacement kit.
