Reported risk: The recall involves all Aprilaire Model 5000 Electronic Air Cleaners. The air cleaners are almond colored and are located near the heating and cooling equipment. An identification label on the access door reads "Aprilaire Model 5000." Hazards: The air cleaner's plastic inner housing and filter are not flame-resistant. If electrical arcing occurs in the cleaner, a fire can develop. This poses a risk of burn injuries and property damage.
