Watts Water Technologies company history timeline

1874

Joseph Watts founded our company in 1874 on the belief that water boilers in textile mills shouldn’t explode.

1918

In 1918, Watts Regulator was purchased by Burchard Everett Horne (B.E. Horne) and thus began a new era for Watts Regulator: A family-owned and operated business.

1959

Upon B.E. Horne's untimely passing, day-to-day control fell into the hands of George, who drove the opening of our Franklin, NH manufacturing plant in 1959.

In the 1970's, George led Watts Regulator into the backflow prevention market and the waterworks industry.

1985

1989

Since our founding in 1989, our company goal has always been to design, develop and market high quality water filtration systems.

Watts Water Technologies, Inc. acquired Premier in 2001 and has since grown its audience globally.

2014

Today, Watts is led by Robert J. Pagano, Jr., who was appointed President and CEO in early 2014 and the rest, as they say, is history in the making.
