Why it was recalled
The recalled portable heaters' operating instructions can cause consumers to incorrectly depress the start button too quickly and prevent the fan from starting, causing the heaters to overheat, posing fire and burn hazards.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled heaters and contact Enerco to request new instructions and a warning sticker describing how to start the heater using the power button. The new instructions and warning sticker are also available via Enerco's website at https://www.enercogroupinc.com/recall. Enerco and Lowe's are contacting all known purchasers directly.
