Central Fireplace Recalls Fireplaces Due to Laceration Hazard
Excess gas can accumulate in the firebox if the pilot light is not lit or has gone
out. When consumers relight the pilot light, the accumulated gas can ignite with force and shatter the glass fireplace
doors posing a serious laceration hazard.
Central Fireplace has received seven reports of the glass doors breaking when consumers were relighting the
fireplace’s pilot light. No injuries have been reported. The recall involves Central Fireplace model CF3036MV-LP and
CF3036MVB. The model number is located on the data plate behind the control panel door where the gas valve is
located.
