Hello Everyone,
We have been faced with a dilemma which has delayed our opening of a brand new brewpub in the Northwest Territories Canada. We purchased a small direct fired 3.5BBL system manufactured in the U.S and it doesn't have its CSA certification. The manufacturer has supplied a couple breweries in British Columbia with similar systems without CSA either but their local inspectors approved everything just fine. I've asked our local guys to get in contact with the brewery owners and the inspectors in that area because it doesn't seem right that we are under such strict guidelines when there is literally the same system in operation a couple provinces over.
So i'm asking all Canadian breweries out there that know for sure their system doesn't have a CSA sticker on their brewhouse to come forward and help us. These NWT inspectors are abusing their power and I don't want to just roll over on this one…ITS JUST THE PRINCIPLE at this point.
Again any help from our other provinces would be great.
Cheers!
