The product, in the report: 1500 watt, 4 element infrared quartz heater
On March 6, 2015 I purchased a 4 element infrared quartz heater manufactured by “lifepro” trademark of lifecorp products from Menards (Model #LS1002HH, Serial #MM281405981). The product was moderately used to supplement my whole house furnace in a dining room where my parrot resides. I would estimate that I used the heater less than 100 hours since purchasing at a modest temperature of 72 degrees. The unit can be set as high as 90 degrees. On March 27, 2015 I powered off the heater which appeared to be operating fine. It had been running throughout the night with no issues. This particular heater has a blower that remains on 90 seconds after powering down to cool the unit off. The heater was in that cycle when I walked away from it. At that time I was loading up the car for work and walked back inside to discover an overpowering smell of burning plastic. The smell was coming from the heater that displayed an error message of “E1” on the LCD screen. I immediately pulled the plug and had to take it outside as the smell was still permeating from the unit. Upon removal I noticed that the metal grill/grate where the heat blows out had blistered paint and the plastic surface above the grill was significantly melted. This damage was not on the heater prior to the incident. The plastic appeared to be borderline of getting hot enough to start dripping onto the floor. This heater clearly has defective parts and its very alarming to think that the heating elements weren’t even operating when it started to burn. I’m thankful that I was home at the time of the incident. Who knows how much further this could have gone if I hadn’t been there to pull the plug. I hope that you investigate the matter further.
