A long time customer who had been shopping for years at our store, never knew we had a water filtration system!
In case you haven’t noticed it, it is discretely tucked into the corner beside the dairy cooler. This system consists of a commercial water softener ( to pre-soften Kitchener’s notoriously hard water), a commercial reverse osmosis system – sometimes referred to as a R/O system, three filters – two are pre-filters and one polishing filter. The filtered water then passes through a UV sterilizing light before it goes to our stainless steel water dispenser.
The whole filtration system is being maintained regularly by Graham Water Systems.
There is still some improvements to be done as the water lines are due to be replaced at some point and we want to get a new water cooler so that our customers can have a drink of refreshing water while they do their shopping in the store.
[Ed. note: our new water cooler is up and running!]
We are bringing in more water containers and will be bringing in the ultimate water container – glass. Those 1 gallon glass jugs that were easy to obtain ten years ago or more are now hard to find.
[Ed. note: the 1 gallon water jugs are now a regular stock item]
Just a reminder that if you buy any water container at our store, your first fill is free!
Water is 20 cents/liter.
