Plain-English summary

Enerco Group, Inc. is recalling certain Enerco and Mr. Heater propane regulators with model numbers 73766 and 73836(G). The recall affects equipment used in recreational vehicles and trailers. The defect involves the LP regulator that controls gas pressure, which may fail and allow excessive gas pressure to build up.

This failure can cause the appliance flame to increase in size. Excessive gas pressure and a larger than intended flame can increase the risk of a fire. No specific number of affected units is provided in the source text, but owners are advised to check the attached model listing for all affected part numbers.

Enerco will notify retailers and replace the affected propane regulators with high-capacity regulators free of charge. Notification letters were mailed on August 27, 2021. Owners may contact Enerco Group customer service at 1-800-964-4328 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
