www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Thursday, June 5, 2014 | 20 Region warns of unmandated door-to-door sales Halton is alerting the public to be aware that door-to-door sales of residential water filters are not mandated by the Region. "Halton Region has been made aware that residents are being approached by sales people who claim that the Government of Ontario has mandated that all residents are required to have a specific filtration device installed on their water supply," stated a press release. "It has been reported that sales people are also requesting access into residents' homes to view their water systems." There is currently no mandate from the provincial government or Region requiring resi- F O R T H E L O V E O F R E A D I N G dents to install additional filtration equipment on their water systems, stated the release. "Our highly qualified and licensed staff perform regular testing to make sure we consistently meet or exceed provincial water quality standards," Jim Harnum, Halton Region's Public Works commissioner, said in the release. Residents should be aware that any Regional employee required to visit a residence always carries Regional photo identification -- staff do not visit homes for the purpose of promoting or selling any water-related products.
