What was recalled

The Ultra 155 & Ultra 230 Gas Boilers are condensing high-efficient gas-fired boilers for space heating. They have 93% operating efficiency and use a cast aluminum, mono block heat exchanger packaged in a glossy silver/flat black jacket.

Hazard

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.

Injuries

None reported.
