Valve Solutions

What Valve Solutions does

Valve Solutions, LLC (VSI) is a US-based manufacturer of commercial and industrial valves and actuators, founded in 1995 and headquartered in Alpharetta, Georgia, operating from a facility with over 75,000 square feet of warehouse space. The company designs and produces a broad hardware portfolio spanning ball valves (Series 7100, 7200, 7300, 7400, 8000, 8100, 8300, 8500), butterfly valves (Series 2100, 2200, 9000, BFIII), globe valves, pressure independent control valves (FlowCon SM, FlowCon Green, Griswold), and proprietary control valves including the flagship Series V High Performance Segmented V-Ball Valve, which has been recognized in ASHRAE journals. Its actuator line includes the Series 1000-X and 1000/S-X electric actuators (NEMA 4, modulating and on/off), the Series C high-pressure pneumatic actuator in thirteen frame sizes covering valves from fractional inch to 48 inches, the Series L low-pressure pneumatic actuator, and the Series EXCM spring-return electric actuator. VSI integrates third-party actuators from Belimo, Siemens, Johnson Controls, Honeywell, and ASCO into pre-assembled, 100%-tested automated valve packages.

The company's business model is B2B direct sales combined with regional rep coverage and OEM partnerships. Pricing is quote-based rather than published, with many stock SKUs shipping in 3-5 days from inventory and custom machined linkages requiring up to two business weeks. Distribution flows through four channels: direct sales to end users, supply houses, a regional representative network covering Texas/Oklahoma/New Mexico/Louisiana/Illinois, Pennsylvania, the Upper Midwest, the Mid-Atlantic, Ohio, and South America (via ABACO), and OEM partnerships that embed VSI's valve-actuator assemblies inside Belimo, Siemens, Johnson Controls, and Honeywell building automation offerings. The company does not sell via internet or catalog because product specification requires technical consultation.

VSI operates as part of FIS Water (Flow Innovation Solutions) under parent Purgo Holdings, alongside sister companies VSI Waterworks (municipal AWWA-certified valves), LAKOS Filtration Solutions, Puroflux, and Superior Water Conditioners, giving the group cross-sell reach across municipal, industrial, commercial, and filtration end markets. Customers include Gulf States Automation, Johnson Controls, Apex Industrial Solutions, divioTECH, Elle Waterworks Supply, Spartan Controls, and GK Solutions, with multiple relationships dating back 10+ years.
