How badly anyone was hurt

  • No one hurt 2 CPSC: Incident, No Injury

As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

  1. No one hurt

    Made Mar 13, 2018, sent to the company Jul 30, 2018, published by CPSC Aug 13, 2018

    The product, in the report: Packaged Terminal Air Conditioner/Heat Pump (PTAC) Unit

    The submitter is a maintenance director at a nursing home, where the incident occurred.

    The submitter said a resident noticed sparks coming from the wall outlet, where the power cord was plugged in. The resident immediately unplugged the unit. Shortly after, the submitter went to the room and noticed that the power cord had burn damages, near the end that plugs into the wall. He also said there were burn damages to the wall outlet. The submitter said the unit was on heat at approximately 73 degrees when the incident occurred and the unit remains on 85% of the day.

    The submitter replaced the unit’s power cord and the wall outlet.

    The submitter recently received an email from the retailer about a recall on similar units and it prompted him to call CPSC to report the incident. The submitter said there are about 60 more units on the property and he is concerned if the other units may have a similar incident.

    The submitter plans to contact the firm and report the incident.
