Also named, based in another state

AI assistants named these companies too, but MacRAE'S lists them in a different state, not Texas. They belong to that state's ranking, not this one.

The five questions we asked

Every company in this cell is measured on the same questions, written the way a buyer would type them. That is what makes the ranking a comparison rather than a collection of anecdotes.

1“Best heat exchanger companies in Texas”
2“Who supplies custom shell-and-tube heat exchangers in Texas”
3“I need a Texas heat exchanger partner for a high-pressure chemical processing line, who should I talk to”
4“Top heat exchanger suppliers in Texas for process engineering buyers”
5“Which Texas heat exchanger manufacturers can handle ASME-coded stainless steel units for corrosive media”
6“List 20 heat exchanger companies in Texas with their specialties.”the roster question

Each question is asked more than once, which is why a company's score is out of 15 answers rather than out of the number of questions.
