The Hazard
CLASS 1 WARNING: FIRE HAZARD
The DIY Sauna Heater Kits are being recalled due to a fire hazard. The electrical parts inside the heater can get too hot. This can cause a fire, leading to serious injury or even death. Stop using the heater immediately.
The firm has received 12 reports of units overheating. No fires or injuries have been reported.
Why This Happens: Technical Breakdown
The DIY Sauna Heater Kits have a problem with their electrical wiring. The wires and connectors inside the unit can overheat when the sauna is in use. This overheating happens because the parts may not be able to handle the amount of electricity flowing through them for extended periods.
When these electrical components overheat, they can melt, short circuit, or even ignite nearby materials. Since the sauna is often made of wood, this poses a significant fire risk. The risk is made worse by the enclosed space of the sauna, which can quickly fill with smoke and flames, endangering anyone inside.
