Precision Engineered Water and Water-Glycol Circulation Heaters for Industrial Applications
Water circulation heaters and water-glycol circulation heaters are critical for maintaining precise temperature control across a wide range of industrial processes. At Heat Exchange and Transfer, Inc. (HEAT), we specialize in designing and manufacturing circulation heaters tailored for heating both pure water and water-glycol mixtures—each requiring unique design considerations.
Whether you're managing chemical processes or temperature-sensitive pharmaceutical applications, our high-performance systems deliver consistent thermal control, efficiency, and reliability.
Over 50 Years of Expertise in Custom Circulation Heating Solutions
With over five decades of experience, HEAT is a trusted partner to engineers, facility managers, OEMs, and procurement professionals seeking custom water circulation heaters and custom water-glycol circulation heaters that meet exacting performance requirements. Our in-house engineering team collaborates directly with clients to design and build custom systems using high-quality materials, advanced heating elements, and precision control technologies.
We manufacture each system in the USA and conduct rigorous testing—including Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT)—before delivery to ensure safe, reliable operation.
UL Recognized Industrial Flanged Heaters
HEAT is now one of only a few manufacturers in North America with the ability to self-label our flanged heaters as UL Recognized components.
Our brand promise of delivering our customers Safe, Reliable Performance drove us to seek out this third party certification - we are dedicated to providing you with a heat transfer system that you can trust to run reliably for years to come
Key Features and Technical Specifications
Every HEAT circulation heater is built with durability and efficiency in mind. Our systems offer:
- Construction Materials: Industrial-grade carbon steel or stainless steel for corrosion resistance and longevity.
- Fluid Compatibility: Engineered specifically for either water or water-glycol mixtures to prevent fluid breakdown or heater damage.
- Temperature Range: Configurable for temperature outputs up to 400°F depending on fluid type and process requirements.
- Power Options: Available in a range of power ratings and voltages to meet application-specific demands.
- Safety & Compliance: Built to meet ASME, UL, and NEC standards with high-limit switches, pressure relief valves, and other protective features.
- Control Panels: Custom-designed control panels for precise thermal regulation, integration into plant systems, and remote monitoring capability.
Designed for Demanding Industrial Applications
Our water and water-glycol circulation heaters are deployed across industries that demand precision and reliability:
- Chemical Processing: Heat reactors, mixing tanks, and pipelines with exact temperature control.
- Food & Beverage: Sanitize process equipment and maintain thermal consistency during production.
- Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Meet hygienic requirements while achieving tight process temperature tolerances.
- Power Generation: Enhance cooling system efficiency and fluid heating for turbines and heat exchangers.
- Automotive: Support heat treatment and lubricant temperature management in production lines.
No matter the application, HEAT’s systems are engineered for maximum uptime, minimal maintenance, and seamless integration into your process.
Why Choose Water-Glycol Mixtures?
While pure water circulation heaters offer efficient thermal conductivity, water-glycol circulation heaters provide added benefits, especially in colder or more demanding environments:
- Lower Freezing Point: Prevents freezing in sub-zero ambient conditions, making them ideal for outdoor installations.
- Enhanced Corrosion Resistance: Inhibits scale and corrosion inside pipes and tanks, increasing system lifespan.
- Improved Heat Transfer: When formulated correctly, water-glycol mixtures deliver stable, uniform heating performance.
- Versatility: Suitable for both closed-loop and open-loop systems where freeze protection and longevity are critical.
We design our heaters with fluid compatibility in mind—ensuring optimal flow, temperature control, and heater efficiency.
