What is better: tap or bottled water?

Tap water is a fresh, eco-friendly, and cost-effective choice, rigorously tested for safety. In contrast, bottled water can contribute to plastic waste and is often less regulated. Choose tap water to support local resources and promote sustainability!



How we make your drinking water safe

Water from the North Saskatchewan River is treated for up to 12 hours before reaching homes. We exceed testing requirements, and meet or exceed all health and safety standards, delivering a clean glass straight from the tap.

Taking care of our river

The North Saskatchewan River is Edmonton’s source of clean drinking water, and we all have a role in protecting it. With our Source Water Protection Plan, we work to monitor and protect the river and the entire watershed upstream. 

Being careful about what goes into the river helps keep it safe. You can do your part by watching what goes down sinks and storm drains and helping prevent overflow during storms. Small actions make a big difference!
