Your Drinking Water
Could Be Delicious
Guelph's water is some of the hardest in Canada — loaded with dissolved minerals and chlorine that affect the taste of everything you drink and shorten the life of every appliance that uses it. One system under your kitchen sink changes all of that.

Sound Familiar?
These don't fix themselves. And every day you ignore them, your appliances pay for it.
Coffee that tastes dull
Kettle that scales up
Tea that's never quite right
Cloudy ice and a mineral aftertaste
Coffee makers dying early

Tap water you'd rather not drink
Hard undertones in your meals
About That "Flat Taste"
Heard That RO Water Tastes Flat? There's a Fix for That Too.
A lot of people have tried RO water somewhere and found it thin, empty, almost sharp. That reputation is real and completely solvable.
When filtration removes dissolved minerals, the water's pH drops slightly. That lower pH is what tastes flat. All you need is a neutralizing filter at the end of the process to bring the pH back to normal restoring a natural, clean taste without giving anything back in terms of purity.
If the taste question has ever made you hesitate about RO, keep reading.

What Changes
What Guelph Homeowners Notice First.
Better Coffee and Tea
RO water makes a noticeable difference in the cup. Hard water minerals suppress flavour. Remove them and what you're actually tasting is the coffee.
Appliances That Last
Scale builds inside your coffee maker and kettle every time hard water heats up. RO water has nothing to leave behind. Appliances run cleaner and last the way they should.
Water You Actually Want to Drink
Lead. PFAS. Chlorine byproducts. Heavy metals. Most people try not to think about what's in their tap water. With an RO system, you don't have to.
It Just Tastes Better
A clean glass of water. Clear ice with no mineral aftertaste. Food that tastes like the ingredients, not the tap. Small things that add up every single day.

Matt was great. Efficient, friendly and knowledgeable. He replaced our old toilet, serviced our tankless water heater and took video imaging of our system to the main city sewer. Transparent in providing quotes before work and no change to pricing. Would recommend to others without reservation
We’ve used JayTech twice now and have been completely satisfied. They are really efficient at getting a technician out to the house……each time was the same day. Everyone we talked to was very friendly and made it a great experience! It’s a refreshing change from other experiences with other companies! Highly recommend!
Matt and Cayden did a great job fixing our leaky toilet. Super quick and easy to work with.
Jaytech plumbing is amazing. They came 30 min after I called. Matt showed up right on time and was extremely helpful. He helped with my issue with honesty and great customer service. I would definitely recommend and use them again in the future.
Connor did a neat and thorough job of installing a new toilet and bathroom taps, as well as replacing shut of valves. He took his time and everything looks great.
Tom was great! Very friendly and obviously a very skilled professional. He did a great job of using his creative genius in finding a way to extract our stubborn bathtub drain and leaving a glistening new one in its place! Thanks JayTech Plumbing for the quick service too!!
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Reverse Osmosis in Guelph — Common Questions
These are the questions Guelph homeowners ask us most. If yours isn't here, call us — we pick up.
Why do I need an RO system if I already have a water softener?
A softener protects your home — pipes, fixtures, appliances. But softened water doesn't taste good. The process adds sodium, leaving water flat and slightly salty — which is why most Guelph homes bypass the softener on the kitchen cold line entirely.
That means your glass, your kettle, and your coffee maker are running on straight Guelph tap water. Hard, chlorinated, unfiltered.
An RO system fixes your drinking water. The softener handles the house. The RO handles what you actually drink.
I've heard RO water tastes flat. Is that true?
It can be. The filtration process lowers the water's pH slightly, which tastes empty to most people. The Excalibur Preferred includes a neutralizing filter that brings the pH back to normal. The Smart Purifier solves it differently — its filtered mode skips the membrane entirely, keeping natural minerals for great everyday taste.
What is a neutralizing filter?
A final-stage filter that restores the water's pH after purification. Pure water with the natural taste put back. Available on the Excalibur Preferred.
How does this protect my coffee maker and kettle?
Hard water deposits scale on heating elements with every use. Scale forces appliances to work harder and fail earlier. RO water has the minerals removed — scale can't form. Appliances last longer and your coffee tastes better.
What's the difference between purified and filtered water?
Filtered water tastes better for drinking. Natural minerals are still in it — that's what gives water its satisfying, clean taste. A glass of water, a cup of tea, anything where the water itself is part of the experience. This is the mode most people use most of the time.
Purified water is better for your coffee maker and kettle. The minerals are stripped out, so nothing gets left behind as scale. Your coffee actually tastes better brewed with purified water too — because the RO removes everything that was competing with the flavour of the beans.
Simple rule: drink filtered, brew purified.
What's the difference between the three systems?
Value — pure water, does the job. Preferred — pure water that also tastes natural, thanks to the neutralizing filter. Smart Purifier — choose filtered or purified at the tap each time, tankless design, least water waste. We'll help you decide.
Does my kitchen have hard water if I have a softener?
Often yes — kitchen cold lines frequently bypass the softener. Jaytech tests on-site before recommending anything.
How often do filters need replacing?
Roughly once a year to every two years depending on usage. All Excalibur systems are designed for easy swaps. The Smart Purifier has an indicator light. Jaytech stocks the filters — one call when you're due.
