Plain-English summary
Lithonia Lighting, a division of Acuity Brands Lighting, Inc., is recalling approximately 398,000 BLT series commercial luminaires. These low-profile, recessed LED light fixtures are intended for indoor commercial applications, such as office buildings, schools, and stores. The recalled units are non-sensor luminaires manufactured between October 2015 and August 2016. The fixtures are metal with a white finish and feature a rounded or square plastic lens.
The recall is being issued because the plastic lens on the luminaire can detach and fall unexpectedly, posing a risk of injury from impact. The company has received 107 reports of plastic lenses falling from the luminaire, but no injuries have been reported. The affected products were sold nationwide through lighting and electrical supply distributors and online retailers, including Amazon.com and Wayfair.com, for between $150 and $250.
Consumers should immediately remove the lens from the fixture and prevent people from entering the area directly under the fixture until the lens is removed or the unit is repaired. To obtain a free repair kit to secure the original lens, consumers should contact Lithonia Lighting toll-free at 844-675-2339 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday, or visit www.lithonia.com and click on "BLT Recall" for more information.
