For more than half a century Hurst Boiler & Welding Co., Inc., headquartered on a 50-acre campus in Coolidge, Georgia, has engineered and manufactured high-performance steam, hot-water and hybrid energy systems for industrial, institutional, and commercial users worldwide. Still privately owned and operated by the Hurst family, the company blends old-school craftsmanship with advanced computer-aided design, CNC fabrication, and rigorous ASME Section I & IV quality controls to deliver boilers that run longer, safer, and cleaner.
Comprehensive in-house capabilities. All pressure vessels, furnace tubes, refractory work, steel frames, and control panels are produced under one roof, allowing Hurst to guarantee material integrity, tight scheduling, and single-source accountability. A dedicated welding school, UL-certified panel shop, and 200,000 ft² of climate-controlled manufacturing space support projects from 10 HP skid packages to 250,000 lb/hr mu...

For more than half a century Hurst Boiler & Welding Co., Inc., headquartered on a 50-acre campus in Coolidge, Georgia, has engineered and manufactured high-performance steam, hot-water and hybrid energy systems for industrial, institutional, and commercial users worldwide.

Comprehensive in-house capabilities. All pressure vessels, furnace tubes, refractory work, steel frames, and control panels are produced under one roof, allowing Hurst to guarantee material integrity, tight scheduling, and single-source accountability. A dedicated welding school, UL-certified panel shop, and 200,000 ft² of climate-controlled manufacturing space support projects from 10 HP skid packages to 250,000 lb/hr multi-boiler plants.
Fuel-flexible engineering. Hurst pioneered the “Tri-Fuel” and “Oxy-Miser” lines and today offers true multi-fuel solutions—natural-gas, No. 2 & 6 oil, propane, bio-gas, landfill gas, syngas, wood chips, bark, sawdust, agricultural residue, and RDF. Its proven Hurst?Hybrid Biomass series can reduce fossil-fuel consumption up to 70 % and help facilities achieve aggressive carbon-reduction targets without process changes.
Turnkey approach. Beyond the pressure vessel, Hurst designs and fabricates deaerators, feed-water systems, blow-down separators, economizers, stack dampers, and PLC/HMI control panels. Fully integrated packaging speeds on-site installation and simplifies warranty coverage because every component is optimized as a single system.
Markets served. Food & beverage, poultry, lumber & paper, chemical processing, ethanol & biofuels, district heating, hospitals, universities, military bases, and municipal utilities rely on Hurst for steam generation, hydronic heat, and process hot-water support in capacities from 8 BHP to 1,600 BHP per unit. With more than 20,000 installations in 90+ countries—and a worldwide network of factory-trained reps—Hurst combines global reach with hometown responsiveness.
Efficiency & compliance leadership. High-efficiency fire-tube and Scotch-Marine designs routinely hit 84–87 % LHV without economizers; with Hurst’s optional “Rocket” integrated economizer, overall efficiencies can exceed 95 %. All packages are engineered to meet or exceed the latest EPA MACT and European MCPD emission limits, and every boiler ships with a full ASME “S”, “H”, and National Board “R” stamped data package.
Service after the sale. A 40,000 ft² parts distribution center and 24/7 technical support line keep critical operations online. Start-up supervision, annual inspection assistance, operator training, and retro-fit emission upgrades extend lifecycle value and ensure code compliance over decades of operation.
Sustainability commitment. In addition to biomass and hybrid technologies, Hurst runs a zero-discharge paint system, recycles 98 % of scrap steel, and powers part of its facility with roof-mounted solar PV—demonstrating environmental stewardship is more than a marketing slogan.
Vision. Whether reducing fuel spend, cutting carbon, or modernizing legacy plants, Hurst Boiler pairs proven engineering with personal service so customers “Deliver More Energy with Less Fuel—Every Shift, Every Day.
