Health Keys Water Purification & Softening was founded in 1986 by Captain Lance W. Orton, a seasoned mariner whose deep appreciation for the essential role of clean water inspired the company's mission. Starting from a small operation in his basement, Lance built the company on the principles of hard work, precision, and a commitment to health and safety. Over time, Health Keys expanded its services from drinking water purification to include whole-house water treatment, UV disinfection systems, and softeners, serving both residential and commercial clients, including the agricultural, medical, and automotive industries.

Now a multigenerational, family-run business, Health Keys continues to evolve under the leadership of Lance’s daughter, Bethany Golden, and the involvement of his grandchildren, Jake and Brooke Golden. With Bethany's business expertise and the development of the proprietary Captain’s Series product line, the company has expanded its reach nationwide. At its core, Health Keys remains dedicated to innovation, quality, and customer service, striving to provide effective water treatment solutions that improve lives and support healthy communities.
