Independent installers of Trane and American Standard equipment
sold these accessory heaters nationwide from October 1997 through May
1999 for between $250 and $400.
Consumers should remove any combustible material from around the
air handlers with recalled heaters. Consumers with one of these electric
heaters should call their local independent Trane or American Standard
dealer, listed in your local yellow pages, for a free inspection and
repair, if needed. For assistance in locating a local independent
dealer, contact Trane at (888) 556-0125 between 7 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. CDT
Monday through Friday. Consumers also can get information on finding a
local dealer online at http://www.trane.com/residential/personaltouch/recall.asp.
