Water Source

Every drop of CEDAR SPRINGS water originates from the deep natural springs of Oro Mountain, east of Horseshoe Valley Resort. The water free flows out of the ground, creating a natural spring.

Cedar Springs' water flows through natural sand and rock formations that purifies and filters the water making it chemical free and the most natural and freshest water found anywhere.

Our spring water is drawn out of the ground and transferred directly into a waiting stainless steel tanker truck. It is then transported down to our facilities in Concord, Ontario where we begin the process that will take it directly to you.

The process to provide the purest, freshest, all natural water is now under way. The first step in this process is called Ozonation. Ozonation kills the bacteria in a safe, odorless and taste free way. Ozone is a natural sterilization process that ensures your water is bacteria-free. Ozone leaves no after taste or smell and is environmentally friendly unlike chlorine.

The next step is to filter out any remaining sediment and to act as a safeguard in removing dust or other airborne particles that may have entered into the water at any step of the transporting process.

The water is then pumped into the waiting sterilized bottles that will be used to provide you with a guaranteed safe drinking water supply. These bottles have been sterilized before being filled and capped in our automated system. The water is then date stamped on the cap before being stacked and taken out to our delivery trucks to be delivered to you.

Health and Welfare Canada regulates the bottled water industry and makes regular, as well as unannounced visits, and take samples for testing to make sure our water meets all Health and Welfare requirements .

In addition to this, many tests are performed around the clock at Cedar Springs to insure a consistent, quality product for you and yours. Once a week water samples from our source and at two different stages of the bottling process are taken to an independent laboratory in Toronto where more extensive tests are performed to ensure a consistently high level of quality.

Reverse Osmosis

A filtering system that provides you with great tasting clean water. The process is similar to that of naturally occurring osmosis, where pure water is drawn through a permeable "membrane" or surface into a salt solution . With reverse osmosis, pressure is exerted on untreated water so that the natural process is reversed and it is forced through the membrane which acts as a very fine filter. The result is pure water. 99.9% Mineral Free

The Reserve Osmosis Process has the same purity as distilled water. It exclusively is a more efficient way to purify water. This filtering process delivers the same purity results as a distilling process.

After 48 hours ozone turns back into oxygen without altering the taste of the water

Ozonation: What is The Ozone Advantage?

The Ozone advantage is simple. Using no chemicals, water is bacteria free, virus free, stain free, clear and great tasting. Using Ozone to purify and clarify water has been in application for over 90 years. Purification of water began in Oudshoorn, the Netherlands in 1893. The first large city to use Ozone treatment in their municipal water treatment planet was Nice, France in 1906.

How is Ozone Made?

Ozone is found commonly in nature. Ozone is formed when lightening bolts occur, or when electrical discharge creates a spark. It is also the result of direct ultraviolet radiation from the sun reacting with earth's atmosphere. The Ozone layer in our upper atmosphere provides a protective screen against dangerous amounts of solar radiation. The generation of Ozone is a relatively simple process. Ordinary air is the raw material, the majority of which is diatomic oxygen (02) and nitrogen (N2). Diatomic oxygen is a molecule composed of two oxygen atoms (O) held together by four shared electrons. As the air is drawn through the Ozone reaction chamber, energy is supplied which splits some oxygen molecules into oxygen atoms. Some of the atoms then react with oxygen molecules to form Ozone (03).

Ozone is the most powerful water sanitizer that is readily available. Ozone kills bacteria and virus much faster than chlorine. Chlorine can take hours to penetrate the cell wall of a bacteria or virus. Ozone oxidations occur within seconds. Ozone acts as a cleaning agent and polishes the water .

Ozone has been used as a water sanitizer in the United States since 1929. All the bottling companies for drinks such as sodas, beer and juice use Ozone to sanitize the process water used in their products and packaging. Generally, city and municipal governments use chlorine to kill bacteria.
