Delta Recall

I have one of the Delta units in my home. Triange Tube sent me a notice 2 months ago and has sent me a free repair kit. I think that anyone who has registered their heaters with Triangle Tube has received notice. Triangle Tube is on top of this and is very responsive to, and supportive of, their customers.
