Mar Cor Purification Reverse Osmosis Systems Recalled for Fire Risk

Plain-English summary

Mar Cor Purification is recalling 130 units of the CWP Reverse Osmosis System, specifically Models 101, 102, 104, and 106. The recall is due to a potential defect in the crimp connection at the pump head assembly. The reverse osmosis pump head wiring could build resistance, resulting in resistive heating of the surrounding components.

If this heating occurs, the plastic components of the pump head assembly may melt, potentially creating smoke or fire and causing the unit to shut down. The affected units were distributed nationwide in the United States, with no distribution outside the US. Specific serial numbers for the affected units are listed in the official recall documentation.

Consumers who own these specific models should stop using the product immediately. They should contact Mar Cor Purification for instructions on how to obtain a refund or replacement, as per standard recall procedures for this agency classification.
