At Absolute Water Pumps, we know transparency is important. We’re proud to provide our customers with as many made-in-America water pumps as we can. Perhaps now more than ever, consumers are concerned with where and how their products are being made. Do companies have manufacturing facilities in China? The Philippines? The United States of America? Do they make responsible and ethical business decisions? We’re happy to partner with a number of made-in-America water pump manufacturers, and we believe our clients should know exactly where and who is making your water pump systems.

NorthStar
NorthStar water pumps are manufactured by Northern Tool + Equipment, a family owned and operated company that’s been in the business of producing reliable tool and home equipment for over 35 years. Don Kotula, the company’s founder and owner grew up between Hibbing and Chisholm in Minnesota’s Iron Range. It was there he developed his make-it-yourself mentality that guided him to founding Northern Tool + Equipment.
In 1981, Kotula and his family opened their first store in Burnsville, Minnesota. What couldn’t be purchased from suppliers was made on their own, in their shop. Today, he works with his two sons, Ryan and Wade, as well as thousands of employees who are just as invested in bringing useful products at a great price to customers who need to tackle tough challenges.
