Guzzle H2O
Guzzle H2O is an Oregon-based water purification company that makes clean, great-tasting water simple and accessible for everyday use.
The Story
Guzzle H2O was started from the observation that most water solutions are either too technical, too expensive, or too unreliable for regular life. Tyler set out to build something that works well out of the box and does not require an engineering mindset to maintain.
Based in Oregon, the company designs purification products for people who care about water quality but do not want to overthink it. The focus is on simplicity, durability, and trust — qualities that matter most when the product is something people use every day.
On How I Built This, Tyler wanted advice on influencer strategy. He believes Guzzle H2O fits naturally into outdoor, health, and travel conversations, but he has struggled to move beyond short-term promotions into relationships that feel genuine and lasting. He is looking for ways to align the brand with creators who actually care about clean water and healthy habits.
