What happened

Miles Industries is recalling Valor H5 gas fireplaces because the trim around the fireplaces can leak hot exhaust air, creating a burn hazard. The recalled fireplaces were sold in six different trim options and use either natural gas or propane gas. They are fully enclosed rectangular sheet metal boxes with a shatter-resistant glass front and come with a mesh barrier screen installed in front of the glass, with exhaust vented outside through a ventilation duct. The affected models are the 1100 and 1150 series in both natural and propane gas versions, with specific serial number ranges detailed in the recall.

Consumers can identify affected fireplaces by checking the model number and serial number on a rating sheet located behind the trim. According to the recall, affected consumers should immediately stop using the fireplaces and contact Miles Industries to schedule a free repair.
