The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with Brownie's Third Lung, announced a voluntary recall of the company's air compressors. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed. There are no reported injuries.

The air compressor's components can fail, which could cause a stoppage of air flow. This poses a risk of drowning to users. The recalled air compressors are used to provide air to divers.

The recalled products include the following models:
– Gas-powered direct drive hookah compressor assemblies F280X, F390X, C270, C390, CTD390 14421 – 15715
-Dual-head electric direct drive compressor assemblies E250, EC2 14344 – 15762

The serial number is printed on a metallic plate located on the compressor's base and on the storage case.

These products were sold at Brownie's Third Lung factory and various marine/diving products resellers nationwide from July 2007 through August 2008 for between $2000 and $3500.

Consumers should immediately stop using the air compressor and cont
act their dealer for a free inspection and repair, if necessary. Consumers
are being directly notified of this recall.
