The “Wintergreen” and “Birch Sweet” essential oils contain a substance that is poisonous when swallowed, according to the CPSC.

The recall includes the essential oils sold in 0.5 fl. oz. (15 mL), 1 fl. oz. (30 mL), 2 fl. oz. (60 mL) and 4 fl. oz. (120 mL). They will be labeled as “Birch (Sweet),” “Betula lenta” or “Wintergreen.”

More than 350 gas fireplaces are being recalled because they pose burn and lacerations hazards.

The CPSC reports that the Valor H5 gas fireplace has a delayed ignition due to pilot degradation and can cause fire to accumulate prior to the burner ignition.

When the ignition takes place, the glass window on the fireplace can shatter and potentially injure the user.

The company who makes the fireplaces, Miles Industries, has received one report of delayed ignition, though no injuries have been reported.

The recall involves the following gas fireplaces:

  • Model 1150ILP with serial numbers ranging from 20001 through 20365
  • Model 1150JLP with serial numbers ranging from 20366 through 21502

Consumers should immediately stop using the fireplaces and contact their Valor fireplace retailer to schedule a free repair.
