Eagle Ridge Water Hardness & Quality Report (2026)

Eagle Ridge's drinking water is managed by the City of Port Moody, purchasing bulk supply from Metro Vancouver (GVWD) — sourced from the Coquitlam Lake watershed in the Coast Mountains. Water is treated at Metro Vancouver facilities using ozonation, biofiltration, UV disinfection, and chloramination, fully meeting the Guidelines for Canadian Drinking Water Quality (GCDWQ). Hardness in the Eagle Ridge distribution sub-zone is 30.5 mg/L (1.8 gpg) — classified as soft by Health Canada, consistent with the inner Metro Vancouver Port Moody soft supply.

Eagle Ridge (a residential community in east Port Moody on the hills above the Burrard Inlet — the Eagle Mountain area of Port Moody, on the slopes above the Newport Village and Inlet Centre SkyTrain station, a mixed community of detached homes and townhouses in the Port Moody hillside residential belt with views of the Burrard Inlet and the Mount Seymour-Burke Mountain corridor, adjacent to the Rocky Point Park waterfront and the Burrard Inlet trail) shows 30.5 mg/L — consistent with the broadly soft Metro Vancouver Coquitlam Lake supply at the inner Port Moody distribution zone, identical to Champlain Heights (30.5 mg/L from batch 32) in the same Metro Vancouver inner ring. The Coquitlam Lake reservoir supply from the Coast Mountains reaches Port Moody at near-source soft character, consistent with all inner Metro Vancouver supply zones below 40 mg/L.

With 30.5 mg/L, Eagle Ridge homes are essentially scale-free — occasional kettle cleaning every three months is adequate. Hot water tanks have an excellent operational lifespan. The City of Port Moody provides water quality information at portmoody.ca. Health Canada lead precautionary guidance applies to pre-1975 properties in the established Eagle Ridge Port Moody neighbourhood.
