CPSC, Weil-McLain Announce Recall of Ultra 155 & 230 Gas Boilers
Weil-McLain has determined that the gas valve mounting screws on the recalled boilers may have not been fully tightened during the assembly process and may have come loose in transportation. Weil-McLain is concerned that loose gas fittings could result in leaking gas, fire and/or explosions, that could cause bodily injuries or property damage.
