EconoHeat Heaters Fire

Rhonda Neighbourly Lead from Hastings Central

Hi there,
We have an Econoheat wall mounted heater have a slow burn at the switch part that we thankfully managed to catch just before it caught fire.
To be honest, we thought it was fire smell from outside as it was a cold night and all the chimney smoke is pretty strong.

Hi there,
We have an Econoheat wall mounted heater have a slow burn at the switch part that we thankfully managed to catch just before it caught fire.
To be honest, we thought it was fire smell from outside as it was a cold night and all the chimney smoke is pretty strong.
The next morning, it was really strong and it still took us ages to identify where the smell was coming from.
Thankfully we found it - it was the wall-mounted heater. It was at the switch port where the timer and thermostat is. I see a number of those panel wall heaters are being recalled. I have not found if the EconoHeat heaters are having problems but thought I should let people know. Now might be a good time if a Reporter wants to investigate and try to warn people!
Does anyone know who to report this to?
Thanks.

Un-bear-lievable! Check out the awesome set up that won the AMI Kind Neighbour a couple of weeks ago. Have you got a neighbour you'd like to recognise? Nominate them here!

“I would like to nominate and THANK our great neighbour's living at Viv Davie Martin Drive for their creativity and huge effort during lock down. They lifted all our spirits with their daily Teddy bear reenactment on how to keep busy. Each day people came to see what Teddy bear was up to. With keen interest kids in our neighbourhood even gave Teddy a proper name...meet Vincent LOL! It's through times like this that such acts of goodness should be acknowledged and the memories they hold forever treasured. A selected few photos of Vincent's daily lockdown activities "thanks Vincent :)"

Both radios and cassette decks work. Aerials long gone on one, but the old coat hanger trick works well. Disc player doesn’t work.
