Whole-home water filter and water softener installation solutions can change your home for the better in many ways. You will:
Protect Your Plumbing
Water softeners take care of hard water, which can cause a buildup of mineral deposits in your pipes, faucets and appliances. Left untreated, damage from hard water can require costly repairs.
Protect Your Appliances
Mineral buildup from hard water can reduce the lifespan, performance and efficiency of major appliances and water heaters. Water softener installation protects these valuable investments.
Protect Your Health
Water filtration systems remove some harmful contaminants such as heavy metals, chlorine, bacteria and other microbes from your water supply. Purified water tastes better, too.
Clean Better, Feel Cleaner
Hard water reacts with soaps and detergents, leaving filmy residues behind on clothing and dishes. It even affects how your hair and skin look and feel after a shower. All of these problems can be solved with help from our water softener installers.
How It Works
1 Free Water Test
- At a scheduled time, our water treatment installers will come to your home and conduct a free water test to determine whether you have hard water or any other contaminants of concern to your home and health.
- They may also inspect your plumbing for evidence of hard water.
2 Professional Consultation
- In less than an hour, the test results and plumbing inspection will confirm whether you have hard water or any other contamination issues.
- Our water treatment specialists will recommend a water softener or water filtration system (or both) based on your needs and provide a detailed quote for their work.
3 Water Purification & Water Softener Installation
- The Installer will return at a later scheduled date to deliver and install your new water softener or water filtration system.
4 Follow-Up Inspection
- Upon completion of your water filter or water softener installation, the installer will perform a follow-up inspection to ensure that the work has been done to a high standard.
- They will show you your new water treatment system and discuss basic maintenance and operating instructions as needed.
What Kind of Water Treatment Do I Need?
With the help of your free in-home water test, our expert water treatment contractors have the knowledge, experience and equipment to meet your home’s water purification needs.
Water Purification Systems
From tried-and-true reverse osmosis water filters to state-of-the-art systems that remove a range of common contaminants from your water using ultraviolet light, our water filter installers will recommend a solution that meets your needs and budget.
Water Softeners
Take care of hard water by reducing the calcium and other mineral deposits and scale that cause it. Protect your appliances, plumbing, fixtures, and faucets. Our water softener installers will install a system that makes the most sense for your home.
What Is Hard Water and Why Does It Matter?
Hard water is water containing high amounts of minerals, such as calcium and magnesium. Over time, these minerals can form deposits that build up inside your home’s plumbing, fixtures and appliances. Left unchecked, this buildup of scale can cause a whole host of costly problems for your home.
Depending on where you live, you may be more likely to have hard water. But no matter where you are, if you’re experiencing issues with your water like scale buildup in your faucets, plumbing and appliances, hard water is likely the culprit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Product Questions:
-
- The type and degree of contamination in your water depends on your location as well as the quality of water treatment in your area.
- Some common contaminants are: heavy metals such as iron or lead; microbes such as bacteria and viruses; chlorine, which is typically used to treat your local water supply; dissolved substances such as sodium and calcium; and other dangerous substances such as arsenic, pesticides and nitrates.
- Whole home and under-the-sink water filtration systems are designed to reduce or remove most of these substances. Ask your installer for details on specific water filters and their capabilities.
-
- There are a number of things to look for if you suspect you may have hard water. If you’re noticing a buildup of sediment or soap scum in your sink, shower or bath, that laundry and dishes take longer and more detergent to clean or if you’re going through more soap and shampoo, hard water may be the culprit.
- During your free in-home consultation, our Installer will conduct a water test to determine whether you have hard water.
-
- Generally, a water softener needs to be refilled with salt every 6 months, while carbon water filters need to be replaced every 1-2 years. For a reverse osmosis system, the membrane filter should be replaced once or twice a year.
- How long your whole-home water filter or water softener lasts will depend on a variety of factors, most importantly your water usage, local water quality, and, in the case of a water softener, the amount of mineral content present in your water.
-
- A water softener uses a small amount of salt to remove minerals such as calcium and magnesium from your water, then passes the treated water through a filter to remove the salt before it enters your home’s water supply.
- Water softener installation doesn’t add anything to your drinking water and is therefore completely safe to drink.
-
- It doesn’t take long to get soft water once your water softener installer has completed the job. Once activated, it typically takes about 20-30 minutes for a water softener’s tank to fill up with enough water for you to use in your home.
-
- A whole-home water softener can help to remove scale that has accumulated in your home’s pipes.
- Water softener installation also helps prevent further buildup by reducing the amount of minerals such as calcium and magnesium in your home’s water supply.
Installation Questions:
-
- While it may be possible to install a water purification system by yourself with moderate plumbing skill and experience, there are significant benefits to hiring professional water filter installation.
- Our professional water filter and water softener installers have the plumbing experience to get the job done right, plus the standard 1-year product and labour warranty you can only get from professional installation.
-
- Whole-home and under-the-sink products that are connected to your plumbing not only offer enhanced convenience; they serve you in a variety of ways that off-the-shelf products do not.
- While most off-the-shelf water filters are simple systems designed to improve your drinking water, home water filtration systems and water softeners are designed to treat your home’s entire water supply. They also typically remove a broader range of contaminants than most off-the-shelf products.
-
- Depending on the water filter or water softener you choose or factors unique to your home’s water supply and plumbing, it may have some effect on water pressure.
- If water pressure has been a concern in the past, the Installer will work with you to choose the right water treatment system to ensure the highest output and maximize water pressure in your home.
