GAF Energy Recalls Timberline Solar Energy Shingles Due to Fire Hazard (Recall Alert)

Recall Description

This recall involves TLS-1 jumper modules and TLS-1 energy shingles that were installed as part of a residential solar energy system. The energy shingles are roof mounted and measure about 64 inches by 17 inches by 1 inch. They weigh about 10 pounds.

Hazards Identified

  • The electrical components in the solar energy shingles can malfunction, posing a fire hazard.

Consumer Remedy

  • GAF Energy will replace all jumper modules and check the electrical components of each solar shingle for defects, and repair free of charge. GAF Energy has been remotely shutting off impacted systems until the remediation is complete and consumers will be compensated for monetary losses due to the loss of solar energy generation during that time.
