HTP ELU Elite Ultra Wall Hung Gas-fired Boiler recalled due to risk of fire and carbon monoxide poisoning

Issue

The studs threaded into the aluminum housing on the front of the heat exchanger (used to secure the burner door) can become loose and increase the risk of a carbon monoxide leak, posing a risk of serious injury or death. As of April 24, 2025, the company has received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada or the United States.

What you should do

• Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled product and contact a licensed installer to schedule a repair. If the boiler must remain operational to avoid freezing, ONLY operate the boiler with the front cover installed, and ONLY if there is a functional carbon monoxide detector in the boiler room and in the living space.
• If you do not have a record of your installer, contact a local plumbing & heating contractor and have them contact HTP to obtain a free repair kit (HTP Part No. 4270278). The kit must be installed by a qualified technician.
