MBB Baseboard Heater

February 15, 1996

In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Berko Electric of Peru, Indiana, is announcing the voluntary repair or replacement of approximately 1.5 million baseboard heaters. Wires inside the heaters may deteriorate, allowing electrical currents to flow to the outside steel air deflector cover. Arcing or sparking may occur, burning holes in the cover. As a result, a potential fire hazard exists. In addition, if the heaters are not properly grounded, an electrical shock could exist.
