CPSC campaign 04128
Hazard
The gas water heater controls can gradually open instead of snapping open to full flow, which can cause soot to build up on the water heater burner, presenting a fire hazard.
Remedy
Contact White-Rodgers to arrange for a qualified service technician to replace the recalled control, free of charge.
