HUTCHINSON, KAN., (Aug. 14, 2024) – Central Christian School of Hutchinson, Kansas, is pleased to announce an important partnership with Superior Boiler of Hutchinson. This partnership will see Superior Boiler providing financial support for the construction of a new child care facility at Central Christian School, marking a pivotal development in the school’s commitment to expanding early childhood education in the community.

The new child care facility, which will be on Central Christian School’s campus, aims to offer a nurturing and innovative learning environment for young children. This expansion will double the capacity of its current center, while providing services to the growing needs of local residents in Reno County.

“We are incredibly grateful for Superior Boiler’s generous support,” said Dr. John Walker, Superintendent of Central Christian School. “This partnership assists us in meeting our financial and strategic goals toward a new child care center and reflects the deeply impactful support the Lord has provided.” The new facility will provide child care services to children ages six weeks old through school age. Central Christian School has operated a preschool and child care facility since 1980, a total of 44 years, making it one of the longest-tenured child care centers in Reno County.

Superior Boiler, a leading provider of industrial boiler solutions with deep roots in the Hutchinson community, is excited to invest in the future of local families through this initiative and support its own employees who need access to child care. “Supporting education and community development is at the heart of our values,” stated Doug Wright, Chairman of Superior Boiler, LLC. “We are honored to contribute to Central Christian School’s mission and to be part of this meaningful project that will benefit countless children and families.”

The new child care center is set to include modern classrooms, creative indoor and outdoor play areas, and spaces designed to provide a safe and engaging learning experience for young children. Construction is expected to commence in August 2024, with the facility anticipated to open its doors in the spring of 2025.

Central Christian School and Superior Boiler are eager to see this project come to fruition and to continue their shared commitment to enhancing the community’s educational landscape.

Superior Boiler announced today that it has been granted a U.S. patent for engineering advancements that significantly improve the company’s watertube boiler designs. Characteristics of the company’s newly patented DFW design include:

• A smaller overall footprint compared to current designs, while maintaining overall capacity throughput.
• Utilization of a lower fan horsepower to create the same steam flow as a conventional boiler design, resulting in lower overall cost of operations to end users.
• Lower overall operating emissions, resulting in cleaner overall boiler operating systems that are more environmentally friendly.
• Reduced requirements for purchased materials and subcomponents, providing end customers a more cost-competitive offering compared to existing systems.

“We are thrilled to move the boiler industry a step further in technology advancement with the DFW system,” said Superior President & CEO Doug Wright. “Our engineering team, headed by Vice President of Engineering Sundeep Bodapati, clearly thought beyond traditional parameters. Sundeep pushed himself and his team to work through the engineering details needed to bring this innovative design to life and obtain a patent.”

The DFW system can be applied to all of the company’s existing watertube boiler offerings. It already has been proven out on several of Superior’s O-type (Ottawa) rental trailer units and fixed-location boilers.

“This technology is a real industry game changer,” said Don Whitman, vice president & general manager – watertube division. “We believe the DFW design, coupled with Superior’s long history of delivering quality boiler equipment, will only enhance the offerings available from our portfolio of products to end customers. We continuously strive to improve our processes, and being granted this patent is a visible reward for our team on this particular objective.”

HUTCHINSON, Kan. (Sept. 2, 2021) – At a grand opening/ribbon-cutting event yesterday, Superior Boiler showcased “Plant 3,” its third and newest Hutchinson manufacturing facility. The 75,000-sq.-ft. building was renovated to house Superior’s watertube division, which the company relocated from Richmond, Virginia. Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly, other state and local dignitaries, boiler industry partners and all Superior employees attended the grand opening.

A state-of-the art facility, Plant 3 contains several newer-generation cranes, high ceilings, a paint booth with a new collection and filtration system and, for colder months, floors with radiant heating powered by a Superior hot water boiler. The first watertube boilers manufactured at Plant 3 will be completed by the end of September. The facility is located on 18 acres, allowing for further expansion as needed.

“By relocating our watertube manufacturing to Hutchinson, more customers will benefit from our great central U.S. location, which streamlines shipping anywhere in North America and also offers nearby rail access to move products requiring ocean shipping,” said Doug Wright, Superior’s CEO. “Plant 3 positions us for future growth and allows us to leverage equipment and personnel from current operations to maximize efficiency and provide better overall collaboration across our expertise and our teams.”

The grand opening and ribbon-cutting was punctuated by an introduction of Superior’s newest boiler model, the Cheyenne. The hot water condensing boiler is designed for applications in large hospitals, schools, universities and office buildings, among others.

The event also kicked off the company’s annual Superior Boiler Shootout golf outing, being held today. The tournament benefits the Hutchinson Community College Presidential Leadership Scholarship Program and the American Boiler Manufacturers Association’s Randy Rawson Scholarship Program. Funds raised through local business partners, key industry suppliers and Superior’s authorized sales representatives are evenly divided between the two scholarship programs.

HUTCHINSON, Kan. (August 3, 2021) – Superior Boiler has been awarded patents from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for two game-changing products created for advanced hot water heating in the company’s watertube boilers.

The company’s high-temperature fluid generator, protected by U.S Patent number 11,047,596, provides greater flexibility on the temperature differential of heating, enabling a swing of 160 degrees to 450 degrees. Because of its ability to scale, the fluid generator is designed for industrial applications with large heating loads. Invented by Sundeep Bodapati, Superior’s vice president of engineering watertube division, the generator’s membrane-style construction uses a simplified design that makes it easier and less expensive to fabricate. Its components can be built separately and assembled quickly and, because they are more accessible from the outside than comparative units are, the generator is less costly to use and friendlier from an inspection and maintenance standpoint.

The second patent, number 11,060,717, protects Superior’s multiple pass flexible water tube boiler and its method of use. Invented by Bodapati and retired former employee John R. English, it allows a 75-degree heating differential and uses a tangent tube construction for low-load, smaller building applications. Its unique design, using a reduced number of tubes and bends, decreases its cost and time to build. Placement of the product’s headers all on one side eases access to the unit.

“Creation of the high-temperature fluid generator and multiple pass flexible water tube boiler represent Superior’s commitment to innovative customer solutions,” said Superior’s CEO, Doug Wright. “If Superior is unable to satisfy a customer request with existing products, we invest in research and development to customize or create products that efficiently and cost-effectively meet the need. As the new patents demonstrate, we do not just take the conventional road, but learn from and improve upon conventions.”

“Superior focuses on meeting the needs of the application with optimized production and operating costs that are appealing to the customer,” Bodapati said. “In the case of the high-temperature fluid generator, for example, we were asked to meet a customer’s need for a large-load capacity. The most commonly used competing product is complicated to build and comes in multiple pieces, increasing installation costs. Superior’s boiler is easy to build, easy to maintain and installs as a single component.”

Superior also holds a steam application patent for its watertube boilers, issued in July 2020.

“Superior Boiler has enjoyed great success in the southern California market under James’ leadership and market development over the past 15 years,” Wright said. “He has worked tirelessly toward building the Superior Boiler brand in southern California. We deeply appreciate his efforts and significant contributions to our success in the territory, and we wish him the very best in his future endeavors.”

System Helps Critical Utility Plant Achieve Greater Energy Efficiency

HUTCHINSON, Kan. (Nov. 7, 2017)

Superior Boiler, recently manufactured and delivered a custom-engineered deaerator boiler feedwater system for a major power-generating facility operating in the northeast United States. The completed system was a significant engineering project that showcased the full capabilities of SBW’s feedwater system team, from initial design phase through manufacturing, final acceptance and a rigorous quality inspection process.

Superior’s team was tasked with the structural engineering involved for ladders, platforms and the unit as a whole, as well as assembly of the entire unit in the factory to ensure fit and function. The highlights of the delivered unit consisted of a tray-type 200,000 pound-per- hour (pph) deaerator feeding boiler water at 380 psig from a 4,000-gallon storage tank compartment. It included a custom hot-dipped, galvanized ladder and platform structure, which, along with the entire system, was more than 37 ft. tall and was certified to the latest seismic standards by licensed engineers.

“Our customer presented Superior with a unique challenge, and our entire team, from sales to engineering through operations, worked together to provide a robust solution specific to their needs,” said Superior Boiler Vice President of Sales & Marketing Gabriel Dauphin. “One of our strengths is having control over the entire process, since we design and manufacture all of our deaerators in our facilities. Our engineering department works closely with our customers and operations to insure we deliver the best possible design to our customers with exceptional value.”

Superior Boiler will have information available about its deaerators and boilers at its exhibit booth during the upcoming Power-Gen conference in Las Vegas from December 4-7, 2017.

Superior Boiler encourages mentees to focus on their abilities, rather than their disabilities

HUTCHINSON, Kan. (Oct. 28, 2016) – During last week’s National Disability Mentoring Day, employees at Superior Boiler focused on the abilities of four area high school students with disabilities. During their Oct. 19 all-day visit to the Hutchinson-based energy solutions and clean air technology company, students job-shadowed employees, toured the facility and performed welding tasks. Superior Boiler mentors discussed career opportunities in welding with the eager mentees. “Disability Mentoring Day was a great opportunity to bring the disability and business communities together,” said Superior Boiler CEO Doug Wright. “This is the first year Superior Boiler has supported this event, and I’m not sure who found it more rewarding, the mentees or our employees.” “We get to work alongside the students and teach them about our jobs,” said Director of Operations Danny Lane. “They are engaged and excited to learn more about joining the workforce. It makes for a very good day at work.”

The American Association of People with Disabilities sponsors the annual nationwide program, which increases public awareness of the contributions and skills of workers with disabilities. Locally, the event is hosted by the Prairie Independent Living Resource Center, Inc.
