What Super Radiator Coils does

Super Radiator Coils (SRC) is a U.S.-based custom manufacturer of HVAC coils, industrial heat exchangers, and nuclear-grade thermal products, operating since 1927. The company engineers application-specific coils and heat exchangers across at least 14 end-markets — with HVAC as its primary segment, and secondary exposure to power generation, gas compression, military, nuclear, data center and electronics cooling, semiconductor, food storage, refrigerated display, transit cooling, wind tunnel, ULT/cryogenic, and pollution control. Core technology rests on coil circuiting design (counter flow, cross flow, parallel flow, interlaced), refrigerant performance modeling, and corrosion-resistant material selection, supported by in-house R&D assets including a tube-side heat transfer laboratory and a wind tunnel test facility led by a PhD thermal engineering VP of R&D. The proprietary Enterprise web-based software lets customers size and rate coils themselves, embedding SRC's validated refrigerant performance models directly into the design workflow.

SRC is privately held by Norwest Equity Partners, with Rob Holt as President and CEO. The business operates three manufacturing divisions across Chaska, Minnesota; Chesterfield County, Virginia (the largest, occupying over 18 acres and currently expanding by an additional 50,000 sq ft of factory space); and Phoenix/Mesa, Arizona, where Mesa serves as corporate headquarters. Revenue is generated through one-time sales of quote-based, custom-engineered products priced FOB Factory with Net 30 terms; there is no distributor or reseller channel, and customers are served via direct enterprise field sales, the Enterprise software, and a 42-consecutive-year exhibition presence at the AHR Expo. Marketing is content-led through The Super Blog, the Doctor's Orders technical blog, podcasts, videos/webinars, and organic social, and the company holds ISO 9001 and CTPAT certifications to support industrial and government supply chain requirements.
