Whole-Home Water Filtration & Water Softening Solutions in The Greater Toronto & Hamilton Area

Kinetico designs non-electric water treatment systems for homes across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area. Water softeners reduce the calcium and magnesium that cause scale in pipes, water heaters, and appliances. Drinking water systems use reverse osmosis and carbon filtration to improve taste and reduce specific contaminants. Whole-home filtration handles chlorine, sediment, iron, and sulphur. Every system is matched to your water after a free in-home test.

Frequently Asked Questions ❓

A water softener removes dissolved calcium and magnesium, the two minerals that cause hardness and scale, using ion exchange. It also handles small amounts of clear-water iron. It does not remove sediment, chlorine, or dissolved contaminants, which require separate filtration. The Kinetico Premier Series XP can combine softening and dechlorination in a single unit.

Toronto averages about 121 mg/L, roughly 7 grains per gallon, based on the City of Toronto's 2024 analysis. Mississauga runs higher at 130 to 150 mg/L, and Richmond Hill and Vaughan vary between 120 and 160 mg/L. Private wells in Caledon and rural Peel can exceed 15 grains per gallon. A free water test gives you your own number.

They do different jobs. A softener treats every tap in the house and protects plumbing, water heaters, and appliances from scale. A drinking water system treats one tap and improves taste while reducing specific contaminants. Most Greater Toronto homes on municipal water install both. Homes on well water usually need whole-home filtration for iron or sulphur first.

Kinetico twin-tank water softeners are non-electric. They are powered by the flow of water through the system, with no timers, no clocks, and no circuit boards, so they regenerate based on your actual water use and keep working during a power outage.

Cost depends on your water test results, household size, and whether you need softening, drinking water, filtration, or a combination. Financing is available at 0% over 18 or 36 months through a 3rd party partner, on approved credit. Every quote follows a free in-home water test.
