Problems We Treat
Water problems can look similar but have very different causes. Stittsville homes on municipal water may experience chlorine taste or odour, while homes on private wells can face hardness, iron, sulphur, bacteria, or pressure problems.
We start by identifying what’s actually causing the issue, then recommend the treatment that fits your water and your home. That could mean reverse osmosis at the kitchen sink, whole-house filtration, a water softener, or a complete well water treatment system.

FAQs About Our Water Treatment Services
What water treatment systems do you install in Stittsville?
Nelson Water installs reverse osmosis systems, whole-house water filtration systems, water softeners, iron and sulphur filtration systems, and UV disinfection systems in Stittsville. We work with both municipal and private well water and can also assist with well inspections, well pumps, and pressure tanks. The system we recommend depends on your water test results, household water demand, and the specific problem you want to solve.
Is reverse osmosis worth it for Stittsville city water?
Reverse osmosis can be worthwhile if you want additional treatment for the water you drink and cook with. An under-sink RO system uses pre-filtration and a semi-permeable membrane to reduce dissolved substances and improve drinking-water quality at a dedicated faucet. It can also be connected to a refrigerator for filtered water and ice. Whether you need RO depends on your water quality and personal treatment goals.
What does a reverse osmosis system remove from drinking water?
Reverse osmosis can reduce a broad range of dissolved substances by forcing water through a semi-permeable membrane. Depending on the system, RO treatment can reduce dissolved minerals, salts, metals, and other contaminants, while carbon pre- and post-filters can help address chlorine, tastes, and odours. Removal rates vary by contaminant and system, so your water should be tested if you are trying to address a specific concern.
Can you treat private well water in Stittsville?
Yes. Nelson Water provides well water treatment for homes in Stittsville and surrounding rural areas. Private wells can experience issues such as hardness, iron, manganese, sediment, sulphur odours, and bacterial contamination. Because several of these problems can occur together, we test the water first and then determine the appropriate combination and order of filtration, softening, and disinfection equipment.
Do I need a water softener in Stittsville?
Not necessarily. If your Stittsville home is connected to City of Ottawa water, you may not need a water softener because municipal water is relatively soft. Homes supplied by private wells can have very different hardness levels depending on local groundwater conditions. A water test can measure calcium and magnesium hardness and determine whether a softener would provide a meaningful benefit for your home.
