- What was recalled
- This recall involves Goodman air handler models AWUF and ACNF (A = Air Handler; W = Wall Mount; C = Ceiling Mount; U = Unpainted; N = Uncased; F = Flowrater). The recalled air handlers are most often installed in apartment and condominium units and are used with heating and cooling systems to provide climate control. The AWUF model units are wall mounted, while ACNF model units are ceiling mounted. The recalled air handlers have serial numbers beginning with 1511, 1512, or 1601 through 1610. The serial number is located on the label found by removing the wall panel (for AWUF units) or ceiling panel (for ACNF units).
- The hazard
- The pull-out disconnects may not disable power to the air handler, posing an electrical shock hazard to individuals servicing the units.
- Injuries
- Goodman has received reports involving six units at two locations of the air handlers remaining powered when the disconnect handles were removed. No injuries have been reported.
- The remedy
- Consumers should immediately contact Goodman for a free inspection and free repair. Goodman is contacting all known commercial owners directly.
