Features of Our Heatmax Over-the-Side Heaters

Each over-the-side immersion heater is manufactured to fit your specific needs, including size, type of materials used and wattage specifications.

Over-the-Side Heaters Mount to the Top & Side of The Tank

Our over-the-side heaters do not require any tank penetration. Instead, an over-the-side immersion heater is placed at the top of the tank and provides heat along the side.

Over-the-Side Heaters Provide the Flexibility You Need

The design of our over-the-side tank heaters allows you to remove and clean each one without draining the tank. Plus, the low profile of the immersion heater leaves ample working space inside the tank as needed.

Over-the-Side Heaters Are Customizable to Fit Your Space

We make small batches of customized over-the-side tank heaters to meet your exact dimensions and application requirements.

Heatmax History

Founded by an ex-Navy engineer, George Strokes, the company got its start making quartz immersion heaters in Euclid, Ohio in 1952.

George called the company Glo-Quartz®.

Growing rapidly he moved the company to bigger premises in Willoughby and then Mentor. Other factories were opened in Pasadena, California (now closed) and then Tucson, Arizona.

Tom Strokes took over leadership of Glo-Quartz in the mid-70s and moved to roll reduced metal heating element range.

A final legacy, Tom launched a new brand name, Heatmax Heaters, in 2020. The new brand name both better represented the wide range of products we make and challenged the common perception that we were quartz heater specialists only.
