2018 sees WC Weil Company mark its 40th year as a manufacturers’ representative and service provider for municipal water and wastewater treatment equipment and systems, covering Western Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Eastern Ohio and the Maryland Panhandle.

WC Weil was founded by William Weil in 1978. In 2002, salesman Greg Madia purchased the company, expanding on Bill’s commitment to the industry. Looking to the future, Madia sought to grow the business, but knew he needed help to achieve his goal.

In August 2017, PumpMan Holdings acquired WC Weil providing the resources required to help accelerate growth across all segments, with a particular emphasis on expanding aftermarket service and repair to all commercial, industrial and municipal pump users in the company’s service area.

In an effort to rapidly expand its capabilities, the company plans to double the number of technicians over the next year and increase its focus to include the commercial and industrial segments. 

“There comes a time when you just know something has to change. How do we transition from an entrepreneurial company to a professional organization? We made the proactive decision to achieve growth,” said Madia.

“PumpMan Holdings provides the opportunity to build on the success of WC Weil, invest for growth, and offers increased opportunities for our employees,” continued Madia. “The next chapter of my career allows me to spend quality time with customers in the field – the aspect of my job that I’ve always enjoyed most.”

PumpMan Holdings was formed in 2016 following the acquisition of Baldwin Park, California based PumpMan Inc. With roots dating back to 1976, PumpMan provides pump service and repair for the municipal, commercial, industrial and residential industries. PumpMan serves the Greater Philadelphia area through Alyan Pump Company, Northern California through Bartley Pump and New York City and parts of New York State through Federal Pump.
