Re: Important Safety Recall
I re-checked mine, did find two on the list, but no date code on them. Online fill in stuff won't accept without a date code; guess I'll have to call 'em.  :rolleyes:

Re: Important Safety Recall
As long as you have the model number and the serial number, you don't need the date code.

Re: Important Safety Recall
That's strange Reb  :scratch:

I just had to put in the models and serial numbers.... and it said that I'd be receiving replacements with information on what to do with the recalled ones.

Re: Important Safety Recall
We made sure they were empty & the salvage yard in Cohassett took them. It looks like the extinguishers we got on the earlier recall might be included in this 1. need to look closer.

They guy who services ours at work said to shoot them in the bottom third of the can as they are standing up.  Then the stuff is right where you hit it.

Re: Important Safety Recall
They sent me two more, got 'em yday....!!!! With steel brackets...Now I have four new ones to replace TWO old ones.....I requested new plastic straps, because they were broken. Instead they send two more extinguishers.  Now I have to send back the OTHER NEW ones they sent to replace the recalled ones  :doofus: I'm not sure if they even know what's going on, what a mess! Only good thing is the second batch of new ones are the Pro 1 model, bigger, heavy-duty, that is all steel and refillable....a big plus.

Re: Important Safety Recall
I see FA-110G is recalled, one of mine is a FA-110 but with no G on the end.  Must be ok.

Re: Important Safety Recall
Thanks Rebs.  I have 3 more that I am checking now.  White one FA5G, and another FA110G.  Glad you posted this.  3 of my 4 Extinguishers are bad ones.  I have one real nice one with metal bracket Amerex A417.  That is the only one of mine not recalled.
