Washington, D.C. — Kingsman gas fireplaces were voluntarily recalled for laceration hazards by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Kingsman Fireplaces. The CPSC announced the product recall on March 24, 2011.

The product recall was issued after discovering that the delayed ignition can cause the fireplace’s propane gas to explode and break or shatter the glass door, which poses a laceration hazard to consumers.

“This recall involves direct vent gas fireplaces sold under the name ‘Skyline Marquis collection.’ They run on propane gas. The following model numbers are being recalled. The model number is on the rating plate located on the bottom of the fireplace near the valve control,” reported the CPSC press release.

Model numbers included in this recall are as follows:

• MQRB3328LP

• MQRB3328LPE

• MQRB3328LPT

• MQRB3328LPTE

• MQRB4236LP

• MQRB4236LPE
