Aldi outdoor heater recalled over potential risk of serious injury
An outdoor gas heater sold by Aldi at stores in multiple states and territories has been recalled over a potential safety issue.
The supermarket giant is urging anyone who purchased its Coolabah outdoor area gas heater between May 7 and May 9 to cease using it immediately and return it to an Aldi store for a full refund.
A potential hazard is caused by excess gas which may ignite due to the ignition gas escaping from the cylinder compartment due to a lack of separation from the flame source.
