A camp stove has been recalled after a defect was spotted which can pose a fire hazard. 

The propane hose connection can cause a fuel leak on Red Mount Valley Camp Stoves, Health Canada said.

That could lead to the risk of fire or burning.

It was caused by a manufacturing defect on the cast iron stoves. 

Consumers have been advised to stop using the stoves and to ask Princess Auto Ltd for a refund. 

Both single and double burner stoves are included in the recall. 

Health Canada said the products are not labelled with brand or model information. 

As of Aug. 16, there has been one report of a fuel leak but no reports of injury.

About 1,356 of the stoves were sold at Princess Auto store across Canada.

They were sold between April 25 and July 26.

The products were made in China.
