Merrill Manufacturing

Merrill made its move in 1984 from a large regional manufacturer, serving approximately 75% of the U.S. and several areas of Canada, to a national manufacturer selling its products throughout the entire United States and Canada plus several foreign countries. At that time, Merrill added several hundred water well accessories to complement their manufactured items in order to become a one source supplier to their national and international distributors. With the lead issue of the last few years, Merrill has added many new stainless steel products to the offering for those that truly want a quality no lead product for their water system. Merrill has several new product designs in the early production stages for introduction later in 2008 & 2009, as well as other current brass products that will be offered in stainless steel and PVC. Stephen Anderson, Merrill's President says, "Our customer base growth is largely due to the hard work and dedication of our present day manufacturer representative sales force that covers the entire country, We also have several specialty representatives that call on specific customer groups. Merrill's very efficient and well-trained customer service department and in-house sales department handle order entry, service questions, applications, as well as many other day to day activities. Merrill also has their own in-house printing department which is kept busy printing catalogs, pricing booklets and custom-designed flyers, provided as a no charge service for their distributors." "Merrill manufactures and sells the industry's largest selection of frost proof yard hydrants, pitless units, kits and adapters, well caps, tank tees, insert fittings as well as one of the largest selections of other water well accessories in the industry," continues Stephen. The company maintains membership in the Water Systems Council, National Ground Water Association, American Ground Water Trust and numerous state water well associations. Also, Stephen Anderson serves on various advisory boards and committees.
