We understand what downtime costs. Our highly trained fabricators perform shop and onsite repairs — from re-tubing to emergency field work — to get your process back online fast.
Harris Thermal offers a Test and Evaluate service for any heat exchanger or process equipment you have. Our NDE procedures let us diagnose the real problem and recommend the best repair — not just the fastest one.
Have an older vessel you'd like to repurpose? Our re-rate service can qualify existing equipment for a new duty, saving the cost of a new build.
We have all the tooling needed to repair or completely re-tube your existing shell and tube heat exchanger — restoring performance without replacing the unit.
Code-quality weld repairs by the same certified craftsmen who build our ASME-stamped equipment — in any of the alloys we fabricate.
Our experienced craftsmen manage the most difficult repairs onsite, minimizing your downtime when equipment can't come to us.
Call us directly and we'll help you assess the fastest path back to production — shop repair, field crew, or re-rate.
Repair is usually right when tube leaks are isolated, cleaning can restore performance, and the shell is structurally sound. Replacement makes sense when tube failure is widespread, corrosion threatens safety, the unit no longer meets code, or repair costs approach 60–70% of a new unit. Harris Thermal’s Test and Evaluate service with NDE diagnostics gives you a data-based answer before you commit either way.
Re-tubing replaces the tube bundle of an existing shell and tube exchanger while reusing the shell — restoring thermal performance at a fraction of replacement cost. Harris Thermal has all the tooling required: tube pullers, tube cutters, and tubesheet bevelers.
A re-rate re-qualifies an existing pressure vessel for different operating conditions — new pressure, temperature, or service — through engineering analysis and documentation under our ASME R stamp. It’s often the economical way to repurpose an older vessel for a new duty.
Yes. Our experienced craftsmen manage difficult repairs onsite to minimize downtime. Call 800-767-9507 and we’ll help you assess the fastest path back to production — shop repair, field crew, or re-rate.
Yes. Our R-stamp authorization covers repair and alteration of any manufacturer’s ASME pressure vessels, and our NDE capabilities (radiography, liquid penetrant, ultrasonic, helium leak testing) let us diagnose and repair equipment regardless of who built it.
Call 800-767-9507 or send us the details — we'll recommend the fastest path back to full production.
