What Yardney does

Yardney Water Filtration Systems is a privately held, U.S.-domiciled manufacturer of engineered water-filtration equipment founded in 1965 and headquartered in Riverside, California. The company designs and produces sand media filters (Mini Media, Sand Media, Deep Bed Sand Media, Multi Media), screen filters (Thru Flush, Maxi-Clean, Maxi-Flush, Spin Flow, Basket Strainer, Filtaworx, Pump Suction), centrifugal sand separators, granular activated carbon (GAC) and specialty-media vessels, patented backwash valves manufactured in-house via CNC machining, and the patent-pending Free Flow™ coplanar dual-ring header media filter. Select technical components include U.S. Patent No. 12,352,370 B2 (Valve with Stepped Bushing Design), NSF-61 certified internal linings, ASME Section VIII Div. 1 pressure vessels up to 144 inches in diameter, and a claimed 27.25% improvement in time to media breakthrough versus competitive products.

The company serves four horizontal end markets—Irrigation (agriculture, golf, turf, landscape), Industrial (cooling tower, dewatering, manufacturing, mining, environmental cleanup, pre-filtration for RO/IX/UV/membrane), Commercial (boiler feed, car washes, kitchens, food and beverage, hotels, manufacturing, pharma), and Municipal (PFAS, 1,2,3-TCP, arsenic, chromium 6, iron, manganese)—with documented installed base including the Cities of Payette and Lakewood, a Canadian municipal PFAS project in Saguenay, a lead mining dewatering operation, an automotive glass manufacturer in the U.S. Midwest, and a citrus grove in Coachella, CA.

Yardney operates a quote-based, project-bid hardware sales motion through dedicated regional field-sales managers covering Western States, Mexico/Central/South America, and emerging European outreach, supplemented by channel partners (Specified Sales Associates in Florida) and a direct website quote-request pipeline. Revenue is generated from sale of filtration equipment plus recurring replacement parts, media consumables, and valves under multi-year contracts. Pricing is custom-quoted per project; no public price list exists. Marketing combines a content-rich website, active social presence (Facebook, X, LinkedIn, Instagram), trade-show participation (World Ag Expo, AWWA, WEFTEC, Irrigation Show, Expo Agroalimentaria, PFAS Treatment Summit 2026), and earned media in Water Online and Pumps & Systems.
