A New Chapter for EDS Pumps & Water Treatment
Since 1960, families, farms and businesses across the Greater Vancouver Area and the Fraser Valley have trusted EDS Pumps and Water Treatment to keep clean, safe water flowing. Today we’re proud to share that over the last year our next chapter began: EDS is now owned by Glen Johnston, Sydney Tilstra and Jordan Gin.
The name stays the same. The team stays the same. And the way we show up for you only gets stronger.
Honouring a legacy built on trust
For decades, Dave Mellis and Meredith Williamson, carrying forward the work Dave’s father began, guided EDS with family values and deep care for the proper well and water treatment service. Under their stewardship, EDS became one of the most respected names in residential, agricultural and commercial well water solutions, helping tens of thousands of clients access clean, sustainable water.
“We respect the legacy of EDS Pumps and the incredible service our team offers across BC,” says Jordan Gin. “Dave and his father brought the company a long way, and we are more than ecstatic to continue the legacy.”
Meet the New Owners
Jordan, Glen and Sydney all grew up locally, and they care deeply about the communities EDS serves. Each brings a different strength to the team.
Jordan Gin oversees financial administration and general operations. He holds a Bachelor of Business Administration from Trinity Western University and studied law at UBC’s Peter A. Allard School of Law before working as a business securities lawyer in Vancouver.
Glen Johnston leads sales and service. Also a Trinity Western business graduate, Glen built his career managing a home services company, with a focus on better systems and happier clients.
Sydney Tilstra leads brand and marketing. A Trinity Western graduate in International Studies, she began in non-profit marketing before managing marketing in real estate development and construction.
What you can count on from us
Water is too important to leave to chance. As we step into this role, three commitments guide everything we do.
Excellently reliable. When your water stops, life stops. That’s why we continue to offer 24/7 emergency service, and we stand behind our work. Reliability has defined EDS for more than 65 years, and we’re always working toward a better way of doing things and a better solution for you.
Your advocate. We put your interests first. That means honest advice, clear explanations and recommendations based on what your home, farm or business actually needs, never on what’s easiest to sell. If a simpler fix will do, we’ll tell you.
Working hard for the best solution. Every well, every water source and every property is different. We take the time to test, listen and dig into the details so the solution we deliver is the right one for you, and one that lasts.
“We know how vital water is to daily life and to the future of BC,” says Glen Johnston. “Our goal is simple: to keep doing what EDS has done so well, delivering water solutions people can trust.”
What stays the same, and what’s ahead
EDS continues to operate from our Langley location at 23184 Fraser Hwy, with the same trusted staff and technicians you already know. Your service won’t skip a beat.
Looking ahead, we’re focused on making your experience smoother from start to finish. That begins with your first conversation with one of our water specialists and continues through to scheduling, service and follow-up, so you always know what’s happening and what comes next.
We also want to be a true advocate for every client. That means recommending advice we trust and would follow ourselves. It means working alongside you to solve troubling water problems, however stubborn they are. And it means delivering high quality water systems built properly, with no corners cut.
Thank you for trusting us
To every client who has called EDS over the past six decades: thank you. We’re honoured to carry this legacy forward, and we can’t wait to serve you.
