Fire Hazard Prompts Recall of Rheem Oil-Fired Furnaces
About 14,000 Rheem, Ruud and United Refrigeration Oil-Fired Furnaces are being recalled because if the furnace is not properly wired, the oil burner can continue to operate when the blower shuts off, posing a fire hazard to consumers.
So far, Rheem has received 1 report in which the furnace was incorrectly wired.
This recall involves models ROBF; ROPF; TZOUP; and TZODH, and with date codes ending in 0106 through 5206, 0107 through 5207, or 0108 through 4808.
These products were sold by contractors nationwide from January 2006 through December 2008 as part of installed systems for between $1,500 and $10,000.
