The fan's wiring is not properly grounded, posing electric shock and fire hazards.
Ventamatic is recalling Cool Draft misting fans because their wiring isn't properly grounded, which can cause electric shock or fire. This affects fans that fit on coolers or water tanks and must be stopped using immediately.
The fans have wiring that isn't properly grounded, meaning electricity could flow through the fan's body to a person during use. This can cause electric shock or lead to a fire if the wiring overheats.
Owners of Cool Draft misting fans that fit on 15-gallon yellow/orange Igloo coolers or 40-gallon gray water tanks are affected. Anyone using these fans at home or outdoors is at risk of electric shock or fire.
Check for a 'Cool Draft' sticker on the fan's water tank and 'www.cooldraft.com' on the center sticker. These fans fit on top of 15-gallon yellow or orange round Igloo coolers or 40-gallon gray water tanks.
Unplug the fan and do not use it until a repair is completed.
