Water Treatment
Ensure your family has access to clean, safe water with our water treatment solutions. We install water softeners, filtration systems, reverse osmosis units, and UV purification systems.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a water softener?
If you notice white scale buildup on fixtures and appliances, spots on dishes after washing, reduced soap lathering, or dry skin and hair after showering, you may have hard water. Lower Mainland municipal water is generally moderately hard (around 80-120 mg/L as CaCO3). Fraser Valley water can be harder. A water test can confirm your water hardness level. Water softeners are most beneficial for homes with hardness above 120 mg/L, where scale buildup can significantly reduce the life of water heaters and other appliances.
What does a reverse osmosis system remove?
Reverse osmosis removes up to 99% of dissolved contaminants including lead, fluoride, nitrates, arsenic, chlorine, chloramines, pharmaceutical residues, and many other dissolved solids. It is the most comprehensive water purification technology available for home use. A standard under-sink RO system includes multiple filtration stages and a storage tank, providing purified water on demand at your kitchen sink. We can also install whole-home RO systems for comprehensive treatment.
How much does a water treatment system cost?
Costs vary by system type and complexity. Costs vary by system type and complexity. We provide detailed quotes based on your water quality assessment and treatment goals.
How often do water treatment systems need maintenance?
Maintenance requirements vary by system. RO membrane replacement is typically needed every 2-3 years. Pre and post filters need replacement every 6-12 months. Water softener salt needs regular replenishment. UV lamps should be replaced annually. Carbon filter media typically lasts 3-5 years. We offer annual maintenance contracts that include inspection and servicing of your water treatment systems.
Can you test my water quality?
Yes, we offer water quality testing as part of our water treatment consultation. Basic testing covers hardness, pH, chlorine, and common contaminants. More comprehensive testing can identify specific minerals, metals, bacteria, and other parameters. Water testing is the first step in designing an effective treatment system, and we use the results to recommend the most appropriate and cost-effective solution for your specific water quality.
