Heat Controller Inc.
Heat Controller, Inc. was founded in 1933 and was originally located in
Montpelier, Ohio following the formation of the Winger Furnace Company in
1907. The company was involved in the manufacture of coal-, oil-, and gas-fired
furnaces and moved to Manitou Beach, Michigan in 1949. In 1955, Heat Controller
was sold to the current owners and moved to the new plant in Jackson, Michigan.
The company shifted its production emphasis from furnaces in that year to room
air conditioners, central air conditioning, and dehumidifiers under the
Comfort-Aire® brand name.
