No I am not in Canada, but the east coast of England in the Lincolnshire marshes. Our water filtration system is made by Pozzani, quite a big arrangement of tanks housed in a pump house. The septic tank, and its drainfield is a couple of hundred feet away, not that far really. We are lucky that our borehole is fed by natural springs so it is naturally running water anyway. Everyone round here has a borehole and septic tank as there is no mains drainage or water supply. Many don't use a filtration system like ours just pump water up directly from the borehole. People round here think it's quite funny to filter the water as they say they have been drinking it for hundreds of years with no ill effects, and actually, that is true.
