Hazard

The water heater may have been fitted with incorrectly made flue gas baffles. These baffles may affect fuel combustion, resulting in excessive carbon monoxide emissions, which can cause serious injuries and death.

Remedy

Consumers who purchased one of these water heaters should immediately contact their installing contractor or call Bradford White Technical Support. Bradford White will confirm the status of the product. If involved, Bradford White will arrange for inspection (and replacement if necessary) of the flue baffle at no cost to the consumer.
