The product, in the report: Glen Simplex hydronic heater model EBHN500
My Glen Dimplex Americas heater leaked oil. ModelEBHN500. This is the second heater to fail. This time it is the warranty replacement heater that failed -again -both time the same manufacturing defect. I believe it is a fire hazard and an inhalation hazard from the vaporized oil. Their heaters need to be recalled.
