Myers (Pentair Myers) is a brand that has a long history of producing a wide range of products, including sump pumps. The company was founded in 1870 by Francis and Philip Myers in Ashland, Ohio. Originally, the company focused on producing farm implements and later expanded into the production of water pumps. Today, Myers continues to be a leading manufacturer of pumps and other related products. I don’t have specific information about the history of Myers sump pumps, but the company has a reputation for producing high-quality products that are widely used in both residential and commercial settings.
In 1986, Pentair purchased the Myers brand of pumps and grinders from McNeil Corporation of Akron, Ohio, vaulting the company to a position of leadership in the wastewater industry, and bringing its customers some of the best wastewater submersible solids handling pumps in the world.
Pentair Myers sump pumps are usually sold through their network of distributors only.
