Whole Home Water Filtration (Pro Install) in Markham

A whole home water filtration system filters all water entering your home, providing clean water for drinking, bathing, and protecting your appliances from contaminants and hard water effects.

These comprehensive systems can remove sediment, chlorine, heavy metals, chemicals, bacteria, viruses (with UV), and reduce water hardness, depending on the chosen components.

Installation typically takes 1-2 days, varying based on the complexity of the system, existing plumbing, and any necessary electrical work for UV components.

A water softener specifically addresses hard water minerals, while filters remove other contaminants. Many homeowners opt for both a comprehensive filtration system and a softener for complete water treatment.

Maintenance varies by system but generally involves periodic filter replacements (every 6-12 months) and annual UV lamp changes. RenoHouse can guide you on specific maintenance schedules.

Yes, plumbing and sometimes electrical permits are often required to ensure safety and compliance with local building codes. RenoHouse handles all necessary permitting for your installation.

A UV (ultraviolet) filter provides an extra layer of protection by effectively killing bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms in your water without the use of chemicals.

The space required depends on the components, but systems are typically installed in a basement, utility room, or garage near the main water line where there's adequate access and drainage.

Builder-grade fixtures often use lower-quality internal components that fail within 5–10 years. Common issues include leaky faucets, running toilets, and water heater failures. Upgrading to quality fixtures from brands like Moen, Delta, or Kohler provides lasting performance and better water efficiency.

Most newer suburban homes come with a capped plumbing rough-in in the basement. Finishing this into a full bathroom adds significant living space and resale value — typically $15,000–$25,000 in home value for a $8,000–$15,000 investment. We handle everything from connecting the rough-in to the finished bathroom.

For suburban families with higher hot water demand, tankless water heaters provide unlimited hot water, reduce energy costs by 20–30%, and last 20+ years vs. 10–12 for tank units. They're especially popular in newer homes where the gas line infrastructure already supports them.
