Well Marty, he called me yesterday and will be holding off until he speaks with Wally again to see how they will be handling the situation, I sincerely hope they do right by him!

Lol. Called a disgruntled ex employee of the company. Sounds like a conspiracy.

No conspiracy about it Jonathan, not funny either! He searched me out because the rest of you dealers and HeatMaster couldn’t or wouldn’t answer his questions. The model he has is before yours so I wouldn’t expect you to know anything about it but the Yoders certainly do and I do. It was junk before they built it, lousy design!

--Shepard Boy--
Please read this entire thread.   You will see your answers to "dealer" and "clout" .  You will also see if you read everything why I started this post. 

Also let me set this straight!!!  There is no conspiracy.  This post was started to find the "Cause" and the "Solution".   I would say the thread has brought out a more possible cause then the letter to me stated. 

To all of you experienced and top rated authors I appreciate your input and wisdom.  My father always said if you learn one thing everyday it was a good day.  I have learned much from all of the posts on this forum and I hope others have as well.  That to me is great considering I have been burning outdoor boiler's for over 25 years.  Having been through and around several manufacture's some in business some out to be able to learn more from this forum is great!

Sounds like a conspiracy

Lastly your "Conspiracy" theory is BS.  I did reach out to slijim in 2016 when I was installing this unit just to run some ideas by him.  He was great answered the questions and helped with the set up over the phone.  He lives in colder then me country and knew what the heck he was talking about with no BS.  He also spoke very highly of the Steeltech product at that time too.   What happened to him and the companies relationship between now and then I don't know and don't CARE.   So yes, I reached out to him from an old number recently to find out more info. Why?  Well if you read through this whole thread his statements as to the possible cause make perfect sense.

With out bashing your response I would like to clarify two things in your response.
  1. You speak of all the factory modifications necessary on the furnace I have.  What modifications?   How come no one showed up to do any of these modifications to my furnace?   I registered the warranty even had the dealer check on the warranty before I picked the unit up in his yard.  So I guess the unit is different or they didn't get the mods done on this unit.
  2. You stated that "you and Marty" about ash build up and acid deterioration.  My only statement on the metal deterioration is the years it sat with out being used.  It was opened and closed the boiler was able to take in moisture causing the metal to start deterioration before it was even fired.  We all know that SS will rust we are aware if there is chips or filings they will start the surface rust too.  So my reason to clarify this part of your statement is it comes off to the reader that I let ash building sit there with out heat causing the deterioration.  If you read the post and look at the pictures we take pretty darn good care of everything around this farm.  Unless the acid is building in the ash bed while it is burning I don't see how acid got in there while not hot. Cleaned and oiled every season.

The photo attached shows our farm and wood shed buildings home etc.  As you can see I work hard to keep an organized and neat farm.  I am just upset that I was accused by the factory of doing something to cause this deterioration that I did not do and never happened.  That is the root of the problem.  I could type for days on other small issues from doing my own warranty work at my expense to everything else.  I won't I will just chock that up to one of my learning experiences in life.

Well then Shepard boy, I’m thinking that you owe me an apology! No it wasn’t a conspiracy on my part but it sure seems that when the customer needed help, you gents thought it best to bash the one guy actually helping your customer determine what the actual problem was. Perhaps the conspiracy that you and Jonathan speak of is on the part of the HeatMaster boys on here that do everything they can to squash any comments or complaints against the HeatMaster name. Again I will say that perhaps for the good of the forum we need a completely impartial moderator. Thank you Ticapa for bringing this issue to light, Talk to Jake or Ryan before this goes further and Please report back of the outcome.



Who’s the fool now David?

How about you Marty, if you are truly impartial, how about speaking to those calling me names and talking conspiracy, perhaps a warning is in order here?

I generally try to avoid people who talk to themselves on forums. Don’t want to catch what they could have.

I left the FB groups for the same BS that's going on here.
You guys seem to enjoy badgering each other and it's tiresome. Can you get past your differences and actually try to help the Original Posting Member since at least 2 of you are HM dealers and should be of more help than what you're doing here.
