LAS VEGAS, June 5, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- United Aqua Group (UAG), the nation's 55-year-old and largest buying group, is pleased to welcome Bill Whitehurst to its growing team. "Bill's proven success, formerly as President of Pentair's Pool & Spa business, makes him the perfect fit for UAG's future plans," said Pat Walls, CEO of the United Aqua Group.

Whitehurst's vision and leadership allowed PacFab/Pentair to acquire Purex, Compool, Rainbow Plastics, American Products, Stark, Kreepy Krauly, Letro, Sta-Rite Industries and others.
