Product Recalls

/in /by

At Zimmerman Plumbing, Heating, and Air Conditioning we strive to support our customers to the best of our ability, especially when a manufacturer’s product fails. Many of the parts and products we use today have been tested for years by our technicians and proven to last. Although when a part does fail, we take it upon ourselves to let our distributors know when this happens to ensure changes are made.  We have severed ties with those who have chosen to not support us under such circumstances.

Below are some products that have been recalled in recent years where action is highly recommended to be taken.  Please let us know if we can provide assistance with finding out any more information on any of these or how to have them replaced.  We will do our best to continue to provide you with the most up-to-date information about future product recalls.
