    The product, in the report: Raychem Rayclic Hot Water Amplifier

    Text of submitter’s email message dated July 05, 2018:

    We received a hot water amplifier from the [REDACTED] Fire Chief after it was involved in a fire at the school. They have approximately 120 devices installed in the school and 8 have burned so far. The Fire Department isn’t called to these fires and they found out after the fact. It sounds like the problem may also exist in Kennebunk, Maine. I have one of these devices in my office. The school was built in 2011. It sounds like no one wants to take responsibility for the failures. The device is a Raychem Rayclic.

    Is this something that you guys would like to investigate?
