What happened

A wiring malfunction in these units can cause the burners to fail to shut off, creating a fire hazard. You can identify a recalled furnace by locating the Carlin burner inside the furnace behind the grate, or on boilers, by finding the Carlin burner attached to the outside of the boiler enclosure with "Carlin" printed in white letters on the burner nameplate. The installation date can be found on a label on the outside of the furnace or boiler.

Consumers with affected furnaces or boilers should immediately contact Carlin to arrange for a free repair.
