The product name and model number can be found on the boiler rating plate located on the left side of the white boiler cover.

Reason for Recall
The boiler can overheat and emit flue gases into the venting system and carbon monoxide can leak throughout the residence, posing a fire and carbon monoxide hazard to consumers.
Remedy
