Gas boilers. About 1,200 gas boilers, made in the U.S. by PB Heat LLC, because a defect could allow the boilers to produce high levels of carbon monoxide, posing a risk of carbon-monoxide poisoning to consumers. No incidents or injuries have been reported. The recall includes the DE and PSC II Gas Fired Cast Iron Boilers with the Endura Plastics Model ES2035 pressure switch used for home heating and domestic hot-water heating.
