At A Glance

This Alert Affects:
Anyone who had problems with their SharkBite “Push-to-Connect” water heater hoses.
What’s Going On?
Class action lawsuits have been filed alleging that the rubber inside the hoses can deteriorate and cause a host of problems, including the appearance of black flakes in the hot water supply and low water pressure. Now, attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking to speak with property owners who had issues with the hoses in the hopes of getting their own case on file.
How a Class Action Lawsuit Can Help
A class action lawsuit could help property owners get back the money they spent replacing their water heater hoses and repairing damaged property. A successful case could also force a recall.
