Services
ABC Water Systems is a clean water servicing business supplying a full line of water treatment solutions, well pumps, rain water harvesting and associated equipment. Our technicians are certified BC government qualified installers and we are a member of the BCGWA. ABC consistently demonstrates reliable services in constructing water systems for domestic, commercial and agricultural needs.
The hydrological cycle is the continuous movement of water in the eco-system. The water you consume is in a contant state of transformation affected by seasonal changes, geology, climate fluctuations, biological factors as well as your current plumbing infrastructure. Water Treatment is often required to bring your water quality back in line with the Canadian Drinking Water Standards.
Well Pumps are used to deliver water to your house, business and irrigation systems. A pump may be used hundreds of times a month so proper installation is critical to long term water supply. Sizing and installing a well pump can be complicated and needs to be calculated. To protect our aquifers, the BC Water Sustainability Act section 50.2-b-i mandates that installations and repairs be performed by a qualified well pump installer.
If you have a well, it is essential to routinely test your water to ensure it not only tastes good but more importantly, that it is safe to drink. Coliforms and other contaminants may be tasteless, colorless and odorless but are detectable through lab tests. Water quality testing will provide the results you need to build a treatment system to protect your family.
Cisterns are storage tanks for water. They are common in our region both for irrigation and household usage. Recent years have seen drier summers and extra storage has become a necessity in some areas. If you have a low flow well or simply need a backup water supply, then a cistern may be your answer.

AMAZING service! Highly recommend ABC Water Systems. They worked with our time crunch situation buying a house and needing to get the water to potable. I would say they were instrumental in everything happening on time and now we have amazing water! Look forward to working with them in the future.

100% satisfied. Travis and crew were very professional from the initial phone call to completion of the wellhead repairs. I received a call ahead of their arrival and they arrived on time, as scheduled. I would recommend ABC Water Systems to anyone requiring this type of service and will be calling back for future work!

2017 I had ABC Water Systems come out to my recently built house and install a water system to support 2 houses and a large shop. Everything at the time seemed to be working great. It wasn't until I built my shop in 2019, that I noticed water pressure wasn't where it needed to be. I contacted ABC Water and mentioned I didn't have enough water pressure. Upon inspection by Chris Dutnall he noticed the design was flawed by original installer (no longer employed by ABC Water). Chris then did a complete assessment and recommended a course of action to rectify. It did involve some additional cost on

I am late sharing this review. ABC has done several jobs for me over the last year and a half. All were completed professionally and promptly.
1. Raised a well head to be compliant with regulations.
2. Diagnosed a water pressure issue which resulted in the changing of my pressure tank. Successful
3. Replaced the float switch in my cistern which would often fail to come on when it should.
4 Installed a rainwater cistern for me.
We are very happy with the work done and all of their employees were courteous and professional.
We will certainly use them again.

I contracted with ABC to inspect repair and replace a well pump in a 385ft well. I am completely satisfied with the whole experience, from initial estimate to job completion and final invoice.
I contacted a number of companies for this job and got estimates / quotes from two. Scope of work from both companies was similar enough to assure me the bids were comparable, and that the scope was appropriate for the job. Both were on BC Gov registry of well-pump installers.
I was on site to see the job done. All parts were thoroughly and efficiently done with a well-equipped two-person crew.

An early morning call was received by a friendly voice and after answering a few questions, a call back would be coming to me shortly. It did very shortly and within 45 min Chris was testing, diagnosing and repairing our high pressure system electrically. Very impressed with ABC Water Systems customer interaction and thorough explanation of how the system operates, would recommend ABC Water Systems to anyone requiring these services.
Thank you ABC!

Very pleased with the service provided by ABC Water Systems. I requested a "preventative maintenance" assessment, and Jon (their technician) provided exactly what I was looking for. Furthermore, he was happy to give me a comprehensive tutorial as he evaluated the system. I came away confident in its current status, and with new knowledge about what to watch for in the future.

ABC Water was a valuable source of information about wells and UV systems. Dan was personable and prompt, helpful and knowledgeable. He solved our water problems quickly and answered all our questions. We are glad we were recommended to ABC and will continue to call them for future service.

I had an emergency situation which involved my well pump not pumping. Dan came out the next morning. He assessed it and had my water running within 48 hours of my call to them. Very professional and knowledgeable. Explained everything clearly. Tolerated all of my question with easy to understand answers. I really can't think how I could have had a better experience. Thanks Dan and Gary.

I called on short notice for a solution from Chris and he sent Daniel. Daniel went above and beyond. Initially thought it would be a minor fix but through trouble shooting found a melted wire to the pump. After 30 years pretty much the whole thing needed replacement...new pressure tank, new controller, new wires and new pump...and he cleaned out the sludge from the change and flushed the lines and filter, worked long hours to get the job done and did an awesome job. Most importantly wife is happy again... Thank you for your hard work! You are a life saver and would highly recommend your skills
