Defect:

The Moretti 5 Fin and 11 Fin Oil Column Heaters were recalled following reports from a number of customers of oil having leaked and in some instances sprayed.

Hazard:

These heaters could rupture when turned on and allow hot oil to spray out, with the potential to cause scalding and burns.
