Boiler Design Defects
Boilers are used in many different environments, including homes, businesses, and industrial factories. These large chambers heat liquids such as water and are often used to produce steam to power various forms of machinery. While modern boilers are equipped with many safety features and checks, such features are often rendered useless when the boiler is poorly designed.
Poorly designed boilers may be prone to explosions. If you or someone you love suffered an injury because of an exploding boiler, contact the boiler design defect lawyers of Habush Habush & Rottier S.C. ® at 800-242-2874 to learn more about your legal rights.
Types of Boiler Defects
As with any product, boilers may be prone to design defects that make them dangerous. Potentially dangerous boiler defects include:
- Defective safety features
- Broken or faulty seals
- Improperly functioning heating mechanisms
- Gas leaks
- Broken thermostats
These defects may lead to a wide range of potential dangers, each of which could cause an explosion. Since boilers are responsible for heating liquids under high pressures, a boiler has no room for design defects.
Like other defective products, victims of injuries caused by defective boilers may be eligible to receive financial compensation for their losses. It is important to speak with an experienced boiler explosion attorney to help ensure that your legal rights are protected.
