But here's where it gets exciting. We're protecting the communities where we operate and delivering innovative products and services that help you do the same.

Our Handprint

For nearly 150 years, Watts has stood as a reliable beacon in safeguarding these shared water resources and the people who depend on them. We've engineered products, components, and systems that not only protect, but also conserve water, enhancing energy efficiency in the process.
Our mission is deeply rooted in a "triple play" of sustainability, weaving together three critical pillars: Safety and Regulation, Water Conservation, and Energy Efficiency. By harmonizing these principles, we craft solutions that not only meet our customers' needs but also elevate their sustainability efforts.
