Our water is purchased from Metro Vancouver. Metro Vancouver draws water from Capilano, Seymour, and Coquitlam water supply areas. It is treated in a water treatment plant and then delivered to Pitt Meadows through high-pressure water mains. Once it reaches Pitt Meadows, it is re-chlorinated and tested, passes through one of six pressure-reducing valve (PRV) stations, and is delivered to homes.
