Just so everybody understands, yes the same factory that built Wood Doctor originally now builds Polar but what most people don't know is that the factory in Sperling, Manitoba did not build all the Wood Doctor boilers, you see I know because I barely survived through it all with my home and property, Arthur Turple and Dave McCullough were the distributors and owned the name, they also dictated the build that originally was a very well built unit. When things got very busy in sales Dave and Arthur moved some of the gasser builds to the US and that is when the crap hit the market/ fan, I personally had 4 customers with leaking boilers in about 18 months from rust in the firebox. Every single one of those units were built right here in the good old USA! Last year when I did the show in Halifax NS I drove right past Arthur Turples exit in Stewiacke, believe me it was a hard temptation to fight off having a little visit with him.
At this point aarmga, no I am not, I have 5 units here in the yard that we are in dispute over and I can't seem to get a straight answer from Jake to save me, it has been over 2 months! I ask you and Please feel free to check it out, I have those units floor planned ( another topic for later ) and was selling the hell out of them this year until I was the only one having the issues with the damper plates (as per Jake) now we are moving just the Polar brand because I'm concerned that the issue still isn't resolved and that when we took on Polar and WoodMaster, Jake pulled our name and contact info from his dealer locator in retaliation, he has 2 dealers in Massachusetts who stock or invest absolutely nothing and they are on the locator but I have $50,000 invested in just stock not to mention the paint that I used color matching my equipment to his colors and I'm pulled from the locator, we found this out from 3 separate potential customers trying to find us after hearing about us or seeing us at a show, I ask you, would you want to invest more money in a company that chastises you for simply trying to make a living and rewards a non investing fly by night guy or two, this is what I do for a living!
