Honeywell Recalls Electric Baseboard and Fan Heater Thermostats

August 3, 2011 by ModernMom Staff Leave a Comment

Honeywell is recallng about 77,000 electric baseboard and fan heater thermostats because the thermostats can overheat, causing them to melt and smoke. This poses a burn hazard to the consumer.

Honeywell has received 16 reports of thermostats melting. There have been no reports of injuries.

The recalled thermostats are rectangular, white, programmable thermostats used to control electric baseboard and fan heaters. “Honeywell” or “Cadet” is printed on the front of the thermostats that come in various sizes. The model number and four-digit date code are printed on a label inside the front cover of the thermostat. The model numbers listed below are included in this recall. Only models with date codes beginning with 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05 or 06 are included.

Brand Name    Model Number
Honeywell        CT1950A1003
Honeywell        CT1950B1002
Honeywell        CT1957A1008
CADET            T4700B1030
CADET            T4700A1040
Honeywell        T4700B1014
Honeywell        T4700A1016

They were sold at home improvement stores, HVAC and electrical stores, and contractors from January 2000 to December 2007 for between $80 and $300.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled thermostats by setting the thermostats to 45 degrees or turning them off. Only models with a “B” in the model number have an off switch. Consumers should contact Honeywell for a free replacement installed by Honeywell.

For additional information, contact Honeywell toll-free at (888) 235-7363 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. CT. Monday through Friday or visit the firm’s website at http://www.yourhome.honeywell.com/T4700
