Important Product Safety Notification:
Supco SCM 150 and SCM 60 Surge Protectors

Priority One is reaching out to our customers to advise them of a possible malfunction associated with surge protectors installed on HVAC systems between 2010 and 2015. Although Priority One has disconnected and removed a great number of these units, we believe there may be units that have not been addressed.

It has come to our attention that certain Supco SCM150 and Supco SCM60 surge protector models supplied by our distributors do not meet the advertised product specifications. We believe that the use of this surge protector can potentially lead to overheating, and if left unresolved, could create a potential fire hazard over time.

The safety of our customers is our highest priority. Accordingly, while there is currently no government recall of these surge protectors, Priority One is encouraging its customers to promptly inspect their HVAC system to determine if a Supco surge protector was installed at their residence. We have included a visual guide to assist you in determining whether your HVAC system includes a Supco SCM150 and Supco SCM60 surge protector.

In the event you cannot inspect your HVAC system, or if you remain uncertain about the location or brand of surge protector installed on your system, please contact us to schedule a time for us to inspect your HVAC system.
