Bruce Bittner established “Countryside Water Conditioning” in 1979 not long after moving his young family down to Clearwater from Minneapolis. Bruce was in real estate when he moved to Florida and ended up working for a water company. This fueled his passion for providing high quality water to residents and businesses of Pinellas County.  He made the decision to start his own company not long after. Over the next 4 decades he continued to graciously provided the Suncoast, to include Hillsborough and Pasco Counties, superior water quality through new and improved water treatments and softening techniques. Bruce retired in June of this year after 43 years of service.
Kimberly Knoesel, Bruce’s 2nd daughter, is now the proud owner of the company. Kimberly shares the same passion and vision as Bruce did to help people better their quality of life through the highest quality water.  Kimberly has the honor and pleasure of servicing a lot of Bruce’s original customers as well as welcoming new customers to the Countryside Water family daily.  Kimberly grew up in Clearwater, Florida and left in 1997 to obtain her undergraduate degree in business from Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Oklahoma. She moved to Missouri in 2007 and met Justin Knoesel 4 years later. Justin is in the U.S. Army National Guard and was in the process of deploying to the Middle East for a 13-month tour. They got married when he returned home in August of 2012.
