UK Product Regulator Calls for Safety Checks on Haier Tumble Dryers

10:51 AM EST, 12/10/2025 (MT Newswires) -- The UK's Office for Product Safety and Standards on Wednesday asked owners of Haier (690D.F) integrated heat pump tumble dryers to check if their machines are affected by a fire risk issue. The British regulator added that affected customers must arrange an urgent safety repair with the manufacturer. Concerned brands include Baumatic, Candy, Caple, Haier, Hoover, Lamona, Iberna, and Montpellier. The government's callout followed the resumption of Haier's repair program, which was previously halted by the UK watchdog over concerns that the initial modification was still unsafe.
