Superior Heating was established in 1982 and was primarily a general engineering firm focusing on wet backs (water boosters) for solid fuel burners. Subsequent owners of the firm then developed the fireguard product which was thoroughly tried and tested by their sons. From then on, Superior Heating has become known around New Zealand for their child safety products. As the new owner of the business, Johan Botha is continuing this tradition of providing quality fireguards, spark guards and stair gates, as well as wetbacks, copper bends and heat exchanger coils.
Nothing can be more important than keeping your child safe. Little babies quickly become mobile, turning into energetic toddlers and incredibly active children. It makes sense to protect your children from dangers around the home. Our purpose-built fireguards, spark guards and stair gates can help keep your precious ones safe around the home.
