Paramount Trident Series 2 (UV II) Ultraviolet Sanitation Systems for pools
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Paramount is recalling all Trident Series 2 (UV II) ultraviolet sanitation systems for pools due to a fire hazard. These units are gray tubes 32 inches high by 11 inches in diameter that are plumbed into a pool's water circulation system and use ultraviolet lamps to sanitize water as a secondary system alongside chemical sanitizers. The hazard is that electrical arcing inside the units can cause them to catch fire.
If you own one of these units, you should immediately unplug it from the outlet or, if it is hard-wired, disconnect the power source or turn it off at the circuit breaker. Paramount will provide a free replacement unit and free installation. You can identify the recalled units by a black label on the front reading "Trident UV II" or "Series 2 Trident Ultraviolet Corporation UV Sanitation System," and a silver sticker with a date code of 9/9/2013 or later; if your date code consists of letters, you should visit www.1paramount.com to confirm whether your unit is included in the recall.
