Power Boiler and Heat Exchanger Manufacturing
NAICS 332410 · United States · 2022 edition
This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing power boilers and heat exchangers. Establishments in this industry may perform installation in addition to manufacturing power boilers and heat exchangers.
Start the review with products liability.
For Power Boiler and Heat Exchanger Manufacturing, the saved research highlights products liability, completed operations, employee injuries. Confirm how these arise in the actual operation, what controls are used and whether additional services change the proposed coverage.
Questions to ask
- What are the primary end-use sectors for the boilers and heat exchangers produced — power generation, petrochemical, food processing, HVAC, or other?
- Does the operation hold any ASME code stamps (e.g., S, U, R stamps), and are those certifications current?
- What percentage of revenue comes from field installation and commissioning versus manufacturing only?
- Are there any prior products liability or completed-operations claims, particularly involving pressure-vessel failures?
- Are any products destined for nuclear, offshore, or similarly high-hazard applications?
- For Power Boiler and Heat Exchanger Manufacturing, what should the underwriter know about manufacturing for nuclear, offshore oil and gas, or other extreme-hazard end-use sectors?
- For Power Boiler and Heat Exchanger Manufacturing, what should the underwriter know about prior products or completed-operations claims involving pressure-vessel failures, explosions, or significant property damage?
- For Power Boiler and Heat Exchanger Manufacturing, what should the underwriter know about significant field installation revenue as a percentage of total operations, particularly at complex industrial sites?

Power boiler and heat exchanger manufacturers fabricate large, pressure-containing metal assemblies — boilers used to generate steam or hot water for industrial or power-generation processes, and heat exchangers used to transfer thermal energy between fluids. Operations typically involve heavy steel cutting, welding, forming, and pressure testing, often to ASME code standards. Some facilities also perform field installation, startup, and commissioning at client industrial sites.
