Best Water Better Life LLP

Hague Quality Water International is one of the leading manufacturers of residential water treatment equipment in the world. But we come from humble beginnings. In the late 1950s, William R. Hague established his own retail water conditioning dealership in a small office in Columbus, Ohio. Before that, Bill Hague tasted success as a direct factory distributor for Kirby vacuum cleaners. Then, the water business presented Bill with a unique opportunity to build a sales organization and tap into the rental market for domestic and commercial water treatment equipment. By the early 1970s, his company began manufacturing its own equipment better and more reliable that the models he sold previously. Hague started selling through other dealers, too, establishing Hague as a regional supplier. Within a few years, a national sales organization was distributing the full Hague line. Growing demand prompted the building of a new manufacturing facility in Groveport, a suburb of Columbus, Ohio. In the mid 1980s, the far-sighted Bill Hague drove to improve his equipment and grow demand for the future. Starting from a blank piece of paper, he assembled an engineering team to design a water treatment system that used less salt and less water it would become the worlds most efficient water treatment system. This team developed a single system that could be configured on an order-by-order basis to treat many different types of water and provide dramatic salt and water savings. Thus, a totally new concept in water treatment was born a unit that would clean and conserve water conveniently: The WaterMax. The WaterMax is an internationally recognized leader in the industry and has the accreditation of the Water Quality Association (WQA). At the end of the last century, the manufacturing plant expanded twice and is poised for continued success and growth. This growth is still overseen by founder Bill Hague, which makes Hague the oldest major company in the industry under continuous ownership and management.
