CPSC, Robertshaw Controls Company Announce Recall of TS-11 Thermal Safety Control Gas Valves

CPSC · 05031 · published 2004-11-01

CPSC campaign 05031

Hazard

If the pilot light goes out, the gas valve can stick in an open position, permitting gas to continue to flow. This can result in a gas explosion and fire, which could result in severe personal injury or property damage.

Remedy

Free repair or replacement (if necessary). Robertshaw Controls Company will arrange for free repair or replacement of the recalled gas valves. If you smell gas near the appliance or in the building, immediately leave the area and call your gas company or a certified gas technician to investigate the cause. If you do not smell gas, check the pilot lights on your gas appliances. If any pilot lights are out, do not attempt to relight. Have the appliance examined by the gas company or a qualified technician. Have the date-code of your TS-11 gas valve ready when you contact Robertshaw.
