    Hussmann Door

    First time I have ever seen this. The door heater shorted out in the corner and the outside pane of glass actually exploded out, sending glass everywhere. Luckily, no-one was close by at the time.

    I've seen dozens of the Hussmann glass doors shatter.

    NEver seen one shatter from a short, though.

    Cool.

    That's a new one for me too. Shocking...

    It reminds me of a past thread about exploding defrost heaters:

    Yes I've seen that before. If it's the inovator door, the shattering glass is just one of its many talents.

    just noticed the tag in the case, the ones i seen were from that same customer,probably the same line on regards date to case make haha, that's probably an older one as that chain has been using non heated doors for a while!
