Anyone know where I can get these replacements in Canada? You'd think if they sold the sink here, the filters would be sold too. They are not at the Home Depot, Lowes or etc.

That's uncomfortably close to the Brown's line area in Etobicoke -- look out for out-of-control Jaguars and foul-mouthed surly locals!

A bit OT, but related to filters. On the weekend I took it upon myself to check why the water pressure was low at the cottage. This is a system that pulls water from the lake, filters it three times then has a UV light for biologicals. My father in law has done nothing with it since it was installed 2 years ago. I shut down the water and took the filters out. They were messy, to say the least. The filters themselves are actually tightly wound string. I took the hose to them and cleaned them the best I could and washed out the housings. I also remove the UV light and cleaned it so that light would actually go through it.

Pressure fixed The filters probably need replacing or at least cleaned with a pressure washer, but it worked.

Is there some kind of pre-filter at the water intake in the lake? I can't imagine these "string" filters doing the job of pulling out gross contaminants before dealing with the smaller particles.

I believe there is a screen down there, but never seen anyone do anything with it in almost 10 years now. There were no large items on the filters, just small, small things.
