If you're living in a rural area of Ontario—New Tecumseth, Simcoe County, York Region, or beyond—chances are your home relies on a private well. And while well water is free from monthly utility bills, it can come with hidden costs if not properly filtered.

From hardness and iron stains to rotten egg smells and unsafe contaminants like arsenic or bacteria, untreated well water can affect everything from your family’s health to your home's plumbing.

So, how much does it cost to install a full well water filtration system in Ontario? And how do you avoid overpaying?

Let’s break it down. 👇

💧 How Much Does a Well Water Filtration System Cost in Ontario?

The average cost for a full well water treatment setup in Ontario ranges from:

👉 $3,000 – $9,500+

Why the wide range? Because every well is different—and your system needs to be customized based on:

  • Water hardness (GPG / mg/L)
  • Iron, manganese, or sulfur levels
  • Presence of bacteria or arsenic
  • Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
  • pH level of your water
  • Number of bathrooms + people in your home

Let’s break down what goes into that cost:

Well Water Systems Purpose Estimated Cost (Installed)
Sediment Pre-Filter Protects system from debris $200 – $400
Iron/Sulfur Filter Removes rust stains & odours $1,500 – $2,500
Water Softener Tackles hardness & scaling $1,700 – $3,000
UV Disinfection Kills bacteria/E.coli $900 – $1,800
Reverse Osmosis (Drinking) Pure, safe drinking water $800 – $1,500
Arsenic Filter (if needed) Removes arsenic safely $1,500 – $2,000

👉 Total Range: $3,000 – $9,500
(Some homes need just 2–3 of these components, while others may need the full suite.
