Urgent News on CSST

The Subrogation and Recovery Law Blog has recently posted a report that a jury in Pennsylvania has found that corrugated stainless steel tubing, or CSST, is a defective product. The case arose from a claim that CSST does not properly disapate the energy from a direct or indirect lighting strike, resulting in serious fire fed by pressurized fuel gas. If you have CSST in your house, you should immediately contact the manufacturer to ask if they are considering replacement. You should also contact reputable licensed contractors for estimates on replacing any CSST in your home.
