Description
In 1928, Norbert G. Berghoff founded the Wayne Home Equipment Company located in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The Berghoff family was also known for owning and operating the famous Berghoff Brewery in Fort Wayne. Wayne Home Equipment manufactured oil burners for use in home furnaces, water and space heaters, boilers and industrial ovens. Wayne became quite successful in the oil burner business, but faced the challenge that oil burners were seasonal in nature. Fall and winter months became the high production periods for oil burners, creating the need for a complementary product that would increase Wayne’s business in the spring and summer months. Manufacturing water pumps became the solution to the balance out this seasonality.
