Carrier Air Conditioner Recall
Product Safety Australia (PSA) has issued a recall coving eleven models of Carrier Ductless Hi-Wall and Cassette split system reverse cycle air conditioners. The recall, which was released on 9 October 2019, was prompted by a defect in the outdoor condensing unit. These air conditioning units were sold in Australia from 1 November 2013 to 30 June 2019 through authorised Carrier dealers.
The PSA recall states:
“If the fan motor in the outdoor condensing unit fails, a fire could result, which could cause property damage and/or personal injury.”
