Water Quality & New Home Build

"Had the homeowner not visited a certified water treatment dealership, the water quality would not have been discovered"

It was revealed that their building contractor recommended and installed a whole house sediment filter and ultraviolet disinfection system without testing the well water.

Often water treatment equipment is installed and no water testing of any type is conducted.

Residential Septic Systems

Residential Septic Systems

"It is important to remember that what you see on the surface is not always what is going on under the ground."

As septic systems age, the effluent can work its way through this shallow depth and enter directly into fissures in the bedrock.

A septic system is out of site, and therefore quite often forgotten.

Well Water Quality

Well Water Quality

"Ground water can become contaminated by many of the same pollutants that contaminate surface water."

A drilled well is a mainstay for many Canadians, with 30 percent of residents, or nine million residents, within Canada obtaining their water from a ground water source. Approximately 15 percent of this water is within rural areas and some parts of the country rely on ground water exclusively. 

A water sample should be taken for comparison against the Canadian Drinking Water Quality Guidelines.

What is Hard Water?

What is Hard Water?

"If you notice white calcification, you very likely have hard water."

Hard water is generally found in areas that are composed of limestone. Calcium and magnesium are absorbed into the water as it comes in contact with the limestone. The level of absorption varies by region. Hardness in water is found in both deep drilled and shore wells, it can also be present in rivers and lakes with spring fed water sources.

Removing hardness from water will save money and reduce the amount of cleaning products used.

Well Water Experiences

Well Water Experiences

"Water safety is important, and the best way to ensure that safety is a full scale water test conducted by a professional."

Three recent experiences have highlighted the need for improved water testing and awareness of potential contaminants in rural areas of the country. The absence of odour, colour, or bacterial contamination does not indicate that water is safe and in accordance with the Canadian Drinking Water Quality Guidelines.

Properly test a dug, shore or drilled well before purchasing a property or installing any equipment.

Jet Pumps Risks & Solutions

Jet Pumps Risks & Solutions

"Often people who live in rural areas are completely unaware that water in their well has the potential to be at an extremely low level and that their water pump is subject to possible damage."

People routinely leave their homes and do not consider the possible risks posed by their jet pump. 
A scenario where the jet pump runs dry, overheats and catches fire, potentially burning down the house, is possible under the right conditions.

A jet pump has the potential to start a fire under the right conditions.

Groundwater Education

" Drilled wells have the potential to have surface water contamination."

A drilled well is subject to influences from the incoming water table and surface water from runoff, septic systems and agricultural contamination. This article is a general summary of what can be in well water and provides information on contaminants, well practices and water testing.

Have you considered what might be in your well water?

Groundwater - The Changing Well

Groundwater - The Changing Well

"Each water test is a snapshot of one day in a year. What about the other 364?"

The drilling of a well is a welcomed act for many people as it provides the necessity of water for their home or cottage. In Canada we are fortunate to have an abundance of groundwater that can provide a reliable, year round source of water for many municipalities and rural owners. The need for properly installed water treatment devices is no longer one of perceived need but one of necessity to ensure the safety of water for the consumer.

Groundwater is variable and subject to seasonal, environmental and human fluctuations.
