Showerhead Hot Water Heaters
Publicado el 2 de diciembre de 2003
Resumen
CPSC registra el retiro 04044, publicado el 2 de diciembre de 2003. Empresa responsable: Sintex of Brazil, distributed by Barnett of the Caribbean, of Bayamon, Puerto Rico; Unidades reportadas: 17,400.
Qué peligro representa
The showerhead hot water heaters are attached to the shower's water supply piping and connected to a household's electrical supply source when central hot water is not available. Undersized wiring prevents this unit from being suitable in wet locations, the rotary switch is not waterproof and the installation instructions fail to recommend an electrical junction box, but instead recommend tape. Another hazard is the plastic enclosure, which poses an electrocution and fire hazard.
Qué hacer
Consumers should contact the retailer where the product was purchased or Barnett of the Caribbean for more information on returning the product for a refund.
