What is whole house water filtration system?

Oaks Wellness Water’s whole-house water filtration system cleans every drop of water in your home before it gets to the tap. A normal system has:

  • A sediment pre-filter to catch dirt, sand, and rust
  • GAC carbon filter to get rid of smells and chlorine
  • Carbon block filter to get rid of smaller chemicals and VOCs
  • Optional filters for iron, hardness, or scale in the media
  • Polishing filter to make the taste and clarity better


This setup gives you clean water for showers, laundry, cooking, and appliances. Our mineral-friendly method keeps the water fresh and healthy without making it taste “flat,” so it’s better than regular filtration systems by nature.

Richmond Hill Water Quality Profile

Richmond Hill is a city in the Greater Toronto Area of Ontario. Most of its drinking water is supplied by York Region, which receives treated water from Lake Ontario through regional treatment and distribution systems. The water undergoes extensive treatment before reaching homes and businesses to ensure it meets strict safety requirements.

 

Water in Richmond Hill is generally considered moderately hard to hard, with hardness levels typically ranging between 120 and 180 mg/L. As a result, residents may notice mineral deposits on faucets, showerheads, kettles, and household appliances over time. Hard water can also reduce soap efficiency and contribute to scale buildup in plumbing systems.

 

The Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) level in Richmond Hill water is usually between 150 and 300 mg/L, which falls within accepted drinking water guidelines. The water is safe for everyday consumption and contains naturally occurring minerals such as calcium and magnesium that contribute to its hardness.

 

York Region regularly monitors, tests, and treats the water supply to ensure compliance with Ontario Drinking Water Quality Standards. While occasional changes in taste or odor may occur due to seasonal conditions, maintenance activities, or treatment adjustments, the water remains safe and reliable for daily use.

 

Some homeowners in Richmond Hill choose to install water treatment solutions such as whole-house filtration systems, reverse osmosis units, or water softeners to improve taste, reduce mineral content, and help protect plumbing fixtures and appliances from scale-related issues.

Common water problems in Richmond Hill

Hard water

Richmond Hill’s water hardness typically ranges from 7–11 gpg (about 120–180 mg/L as calcium carbonate). This means the water is moderately hard to hard and may lead to mineral scale buildup in water heaters, plumbing fixtures, and household appliances over time. Residents may also notice spots on dishes and glassware and reduced soap lathering. However, the water remains safe to drink and use and meets all applicable Ontario drinking water quality standards.

PFAS

PFAS are synthetic “forever chemicals” that can enter water supplies through industrial activities, consumer products, and environmental contamination. Richmond Hill’s drinking water, supplied through York Region’s Lake Ontario-based water system, is subject to rigorous testing and treatment processes. Regional water authorities regularly monitor water quality and ensure that PFAS levels, along with other potential contaminants, remain within applicable Ontario drinking water standards and guidelines, helping provide residents with a safe and reliable drinking water supply.

Total dissolved solids

TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) measures the amount of dissolved minerals, salts, and other naturally occurring substances in water. In Richmond Hill, TDS levels are typically around 150–300 mg/L, depending on the water source and seasonal conditions. This level is within accepted drinking water guidelines and may give the water a mildly mineral taste. The water is safe to drink, although dissolved minerals can contribute to scale buildup in plumbing fixtures and appliances over time and may slightly reduce the effectiveness of soaps and detergents.
