One Stop Gardens 15,000 and 30,000 BTU Tank Top Propane Recalled for Burn Hazard
Hazard
In windy weather, the flame can be directed to the rear of the unit, which can melt the "tip switch" safety shut off feature at the rear of the heater. This poses a risk that the heater will not turn off if it tips over and poses a burn hazard to consumers.
