Health Canada is recalling a brand of tankless water heaters over carbon monoxide poisoning risks.

The Vesta brand’s VRP and VRS model water heaters are said to have an exhaust duct that can crack, according to an Oct. 16 Health Canada notice. This can allow gases to escape and get into the home, posing a carbon monoxide poisoning risk.
