Recall of seven brands of low lead ball valves for gas lines due to cracking risks. Fire and explosion hazards if gas leaks. Consumers must stop using and get professional replacement.
The valves can crack and cause gas to leak. This poses fire and explosion hazards.
Fu San Machinery is recalling seven brands of low lead ball valves used in gas lines because they can crack and leak gas, causing fire or explosion risks. Affected consumers must stop using the valves and get a professional replacement to prevent serious injury.
The valves can crack, allowing gas to leak. If gas leaks, it can ignite and cause fire or explosion. This is especially dangerous in gas lines where leaks can quickly lead to serious injury or death.
Homeowners and businesses with gas lines using the recalled valves are affected. Those with valves marked with date codes 1103 to 1112 (YYMM format) are most at risk.
Check for valves with date codes 1103 to 1112 (YYMM format) under the handle. Look for the brand name and model number listed in the recall. The valves are brass shut-off valves for gas lines, marked with 'Taiwan' as country of origin.
Turn off the gas supply immediately and do not use the valves until a professional replacement is installed.
Reach out to Danville Sales for $300 reimbursement to cover costs of removing, returning, and installing a replacement valve.
Send the recalled valve with a photo showing it in the gas line and the date code, along with your address and installation location details to Danville Sales.
Consumers should turn off the gas supply until a replacement gas valve has been professionally installed. Consumers should contact Danville Sales which, on behalf of Fu San Machinery, will provide compensation of $300 to reimburse customers for costs incurred to remove and return the valve and for purchasing and installing a replacement valve. The affected valve should be returned to the Danville Sales Office for Fu San Machinery with a photo depicting the valve in the gas line before removal and showing the date code on the valve, along with the address and details of the location where the valve was installed. The requested information, the recalled valve, and the consumer name and address should be sent to the address in the Consumer Contact paragraph. Upon receipt, Fu San will reimburse customers in the amount of $300.
The affected valves include Aqualine BBV-075-LF, AY McDonald 72032S, FNW FNWX410AF, Hodes Co. 40-642, Legend T1002NL, Leonard Valve 83503, and Mueller 107-844NL.
Check for valves with date codes 1103 to 1112 (YYMM format) under the handle. The valves are brass shut-off valves for gas lines marked with 'Taiwan' as country of origin.
