Heat Tracing & Thermal Engineering Experts Serving the USA Since 1978

A/C Thermal Protection engineers, installs, and maintains industrial heat tracing and thermal protection systems for facilities across the United States. We work as consultants first — every project begins with an audit and a design, not a quote.

Our teams mobilize nationwide to data centers, refineries, chemical plants, power generation sites, and aviation facilities in all 50 states. Backed by A/C Lightning Protection, founded in 1978, we bring nearly five decades of critical-infrastructure experience to every site.

When systems fail, our rapid-response teams mobilize fast—restoring freeze protection and bringing operations back online safely.

Every project begins with a site audit and load calculation, not a quote. We produce a full bill of materials and system design compliant with IEEE 515, ASHRAE 90.1, and NFPA 70 — so your facility passes inspection the first time.

We phase site work around your production schedule and coordinate with other trades on active job sites. Most installs are completed during planned maintenance windows — without shutting down operations.

Founded in Nebraska in 1978 as A/C Lightning Protection, we’ve spent nearly five decades protecting critical infrastructure. A/C Thermal Protection extends that work to heat tracing, thermal audits, and industrial insulation for facilities nationwide. We remain headquartered in West Point, Nebraska.
