Consumers who do not have a carbon monoxide alarm can contact Triangle Tube to have one shipped to them free of charge.
The firm has received one report of a death from carbon monoxide poisoning associated with the recalled boilers in 2016 following a repair where the adapter was not reattached. The firm has also received two other reports of vent tube adapter separation from the recalled boilers.
