Lennox Hearth Products is recalling Lennox Superior brand vent-free gas log sets and fireplaces (models VFGL18, VFGL24, VFGL28, VF4000, VF5000, and VF6000) because the front burners can fail to ignite, allowing gas to escape. This poses a fire or explosion hazard to consumers. The recalled units include those with serial numbers starting with "6408C" through "6408M" or "6409," as well as any units that had burner assembly repairs between March 2008 and December 2009. The affected products consist of ceramic-fiber logs with dual gas burner systems designed for wood-burning fireplaces or ventless fireboxes, or complete ventless fireplaces with enclosed boxes and accessories.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled log sets and fireplaces. Consumers should contact Lennox for information about arranging a free inspection and repair.
