About Us

Our values drive us to develop some of the finest water treatment systems, making it easy for industry professionals to satisfy today’s demand for the highest quality water.

Keeping water clean and safe is an increasingly difficult challenge. That’s why we push to make good products better, create industry-leading technology, and offer a state-certified, independent lab specializing in water testing.

It’s about making life better as well as providing “The Right Water for Life.”

Passionately provide and create innovative water treatment solutions with a splash of inspiration.

Deliver innovative water solutions honestly, ethically, and enthusiastically through education, teamwork, and engaging customer support.

Our Technology
Sets Us Apart

Water-Right has introduced many water treatment solutions over the years, but none more popular and innovative than the Sanitizer Plus®. Using an in-line chlorine generator, these systems produce free chlorine from brine to remove iron and sulfur bacteria odors from the media bed with every regeneration.

Crystal-Right™ makes it all possible. Unlike plastic resin, the crystalline media is impervious to chlorine and backwashes clean in less time at greater flow rates.

Our chlorine generator keeps water treatment and filtration systems clean by eliminating problematic substances like iron, manganese, and sulfur bacteria.

One of Water-Right’s most unique solutions has been the use of Crystal-Right™ media, a silica crystal that outperforms resin media for removal of hardness, iron and manganese in just a single pass.

Patented Inch Worm technology is an enhancement added to select backwashing filters that gently releases air when the valve advances to backwash.

We developed our Ozone Generator to be easily implemented into many of Water-Right’s existing air filtration systems. The generator is powered directly from the the control valve for installation that’s as simple as plug-and-play.
