DENVER, CO — Radiant heating hose manufactured by the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. was found faulty in a court case recently in Colorado. Vista Resorts, developer of the Beaver Creek vacation homes, filed a lawsuit against Goodyear claiming that its radiant heating hose, Entran II, cracked and leaked fluids under the homes. The repair process was extensive, requiring expensive floors to be ripped up in order to get to the radiant hose.
According to attorneys for Vista Resorts, the faulty hose was also responsible for damages to the ceilings, basements, and driveways of some of the homes.
