Richard C. from Nashua Iowa 50658 asked:
I have a Masterbuilt smoker, model #20072612, serial #AS131440. Why does the circuit breaker trip every time I set the timer? I've tried different outlets, and the problem persists. What could be the issue?

Hi Richard, We understand you're experiencing a frustrating issue with your Masterbuilt smoker, model #20072612, where the breaker trips every time you set the timer, even after trying different outlets. While we do not carry this specific smoker model, we can offer some general guidance regarding electric appliances and circuit breakers.Electric heating appliances like smokers often draw a significant amount of power, and it's recommended they be connected to a dedicated 120-volt electrical circuit to prevent overloading and tripping circuit breakers. Since you've tried different outlets and the problem persists, it suggests there might be an internal issue with the smoker itself causing it to draw too much current.We recommend checking the owner's manual for your smoker to confirm its specific power requirements and troubleshooting steps. For further assistance with this particular model, contacting the manufacturer directly would be your best course of action.
