Cleaner, safer water for every Framingham home

CleanTap Water Solutions is your local water filtration team in Framingham, and as certified BritaPRO installers we treat every home the same way: we test first, then recommend. Before we ever suggest a system, we come to you for a free in-home water test so you can see, in plain numbers, exactly what is in your water. With more than 60 years of combined experience and a licensed, insured crew, we serve homeowners, renters, and property managers across all of Framingham, from downtown and Framingham Centre to Saxonville and Nobscot. No pressure, no guesswork, just an honest look at your water and clear options that fit your home and your budget.

Framingham’s tap water arrives through the MWRA system, drawing from the protected Quabbin and Wachusett Reservoirs and distributed by the City’s DPW Water Division. That wholesale supply is genuinely high quality, so the concerns we see most are inside the home. In neighborhoods with pre-1940 housing, older service lines and lead solder on copper joints can add lead at the tap, especially where water sits overnight. A point-of-use or whole-home filter targets exactly these in-home issues, giving you added peace of mind about what pours from your kitchen faucet, without you having to rip open walls to find out.

We install and service the full range of home water systems: whole-home filtration that treats every tap, water softeners for scale and hard-water buildup, and under-sink reverse osmosis for crisp drinking and cooking water. When testing calls for it, we fit systems that reduce lead and PFAS so your family drinks with confidence. With $0-down financing available, upgrading is easier than most people expect, and once you taste filtered water on tap, you will wonder why you ever hauled home cases of bottled water. Filtered simply beats bottled on cost, convenience, and waste, right from your own sink.

Everything starts with a free in-home water test. Our own experienced water specialists, with 60+ years of combined experience and certified BritaPRO installation, test what’s actually coming out of your taps, hand you a clear report, and only then recommend a system. You get upfront, fixed pricing, clean installation, and equipment matched to your water, not a one-size-fits-all package.

Whether you need a whole-home filter, a water softener for hard-water scale, a reverse-osmosis drinking-water system, or targeted PFAS and lead reduction, we handle it, with $0-down financing available. One trusted local number for water filtration, plumbing, and heating & cooling across your whole home.

Local knowledge

Framingham Water Quality: What MetroWest Homeowners Should Know

Framingham is served by the MWRA, which draws from the protected Quabbin and Wachusett Reservoirs and delivers a high-quality wholesale supply through the City’s DPW Water Division. Because the source water is strong, the issues we find most often start inside older homes. Framingham’s housing stock spans classic colonials around Framingham Centre and Nobscot, older single-families and multifamily buildings downtown and in Saxonville, and newer development across the city. In pre-1940 houses, aging service lines and lead solder on copper joints can contribute lead at the tap, particularly after water sits overnight, and older fixtures and water heaters can add sediment and metallic taste.

This is why CleanTap always tests before recommending anything. Our free in-home water test looks at what is actually happening at your faucets, and we walk you through a clear, easy-to-read report of the results. From there we evaluate your service line and interior piping and match you to a right-sized system, whether that is a simple under-sink filter for drinking water or whole-home filtration for the entire house. You only pay for what your water genuinely needs, and every install is handled by our licensed, insured team. Call (781) 630-5449 to book your free test.

Does your water need help?

Signs it’s time to test & treat your water

Your water can look fine and still carry hardness, contaminants, or things that damage your home. Here’s what to watch for.

Test your water soon

  • You’re on a private well and haven’t tested lately
  • Your water smells like chlorine, sulfur, or “off”
  • Orange, brown, or blue-green staining on fixtures
  • Your town or well may have PFAS or lead concerns
  • Cloudy or gritty water, or sediment in aerators
  • You buy bottled water because you don’t trust the tap

A filter or softener will help if

  • Spotty glasses, crusty faucets, and soap that won’t lather
  • Dry skin and hair, or stiff, dingy laundry
  • Water heaters and appliances wearing out early
  • Chlorine or metallic taste you’d rather not drink
  • You want cleaner drinking water without the bottles
  • You want peace of mind about PFAS, lead, and hardness

Water problems we solve

Common Framingham water problems, fixed at the source

If any of these sound familiar, a free water test will pinpoint the cause and the right fix, no guesswork.

Hard Water & Scale

Spotted glassware, crusty fixtures, dry skin, and appliances that wear out early? A softener fixes hard water at the source.

Bad Taste & Odor

Chlorine taste, a musty smell, or that rotten-egg odor? Filtration removes what makes your water unpleasant to drink.

PFAS & Contaminants

Worried about PFAS, lead, or what’s in your report? We match the right media or RO system to the contaminants in your water.

Rust & Staining

Orange or brown staining on fixtures and laundry usually means iron or manganese, common on wells, and very treatable.

Cloudy or Sediment Water

Cloudy, gritty, or sediment-filled water clogs aerators and appliances. Whole-home filtration clears it up.

Well Water Concerns

On a private well? We test for hardness, iron, manganese, bacteria risk, and more, then build the right treatment train.

“They were fantastic. Very responsive and came out the next day. The plumber, Luiz, was very knowledgeable and efficient in getting the leak fixed. Did not feel upcharged, very straightforward. Highly recommend. Much better than other plumbers after interviewing multiple. They were the best.”

“I called on a Sunday, my boiler was overfilling itself. Sean was patient and informative on the phone, then Luiz came out on a Sunday, fixed my leak, and got my heat up and running within the hour. Both were patient, helpful, and transparent about everything. I highly recommend their service!”

Questions

Framingham water filtration, answered

Is Framingham’s tap water safe to drink?

Framingham’s water comes from the MWRA, drawing on the protected Quabbin and Wachusett Reservoirs, and that wholesale supply is high quality. The concerns we see are usually inside older homes. In pre-1940 housing, older service lines and lead solder on copper joints can add lead at the tap, especially where water sits overnight, and aging fixtures can add sediment or a metallic taste. The only way to know your specific water is to test it. Our free in-home water test shows you exactly what is at your faucet so you can decide with confidence.

How does the free in-home water test work?

It is simple and there is no obligation. One of our technicians comes to your Framingham home at a time that works for you and tests your water right at the tap. We walk you through the results in plain language, explaining what each finding means for your family and your plumbing. If your water is fine, we will tell you so. If filtration would help, we recommend a right-sized system and give you honest pricing, including $0-down financing options. You get real answers about your water without ever leaving your kitchen. Call (781) 630-5449 to book.

Can filtration help with lead in older Framingham homes?

Yes. Because Framingham’s supply is strong, lead at the tap usually comes from older service lines and lead solder on copper joints in pre-1940 homes, especially where water sits overnight. We start with our free in-home water test to confirm what is present, then evaluate your service line and interior piping. Depending on the results, we install a point-of-use filter for drinking and cooking water or whole-home filtration certified to reduce lead. As certified BritaPRO installers, we match the system to your test results so you are treating the real issue, not guessing.

What water filtration systems do you install?

CleanTap installs the full range of home water systems. Whole-home filtration treats every tap in the house, water softeners tackle scale and hard-water buildup, and under-sink reverse osmosis gives you crisp drinking and cooking water. When testing shows a need, we fit systems that reduce lead and PFAS. As certified BritaPRO installers, we size and select equipment based on your free in-home water test, never a one-size-fits-all package. With $0-down financing available, filtered water on tap is within reach, and it beats bottled on cost, convenience, and waste. Call (781) 630-5449 to get started.

Is my tap water in Massachusetts safe to drink?

Most Massachusetts public water meets federal standards, but “meets standards” doesn’t mean pure, chlorine/chloramine, disinfection byproducts, hardness, and in some areas PFAS or lead from older service lines can still affect taste, safety, and your appliances. Private wells aren’t tested by any utility at all. The only way to know what’s in your water is to test it, which is exactly why we offer a free in-home water test and a clear report.

How does the free in-home water test work?

We come to your home, test your water on the spot for the things that matter, hardness, chlorine, pH, iron, TDS and more, and walk you through a clear report of what we find. There’s no cost, no obligation, and no pressure. If treatment makes sense we’ll recommend the right system for your water and budget; if it doesn’t, we’ll tell you that too. Call (781) 630-5449 to book.

What’s the difference between a water softener and a filter?

A softener removes the calcium and magnesium that make water “hard”, the cause of scale, spotting, and appliance wear. A filter removes things like chlorine, sediment, taste, odor, PFAS, or lead. Many homes benefit from both, which is why we test first and design a system, softener, whole-home filter, drinking-water RO, or a combination, around your actual water rather than a one-size-fits-all package.

Can you remove PFAS and lead from my water?

Yes. PFAS and lead are best addressed with the right technology, typically reverse osmosis and/or specialized filtration media at the point of use or whole-home. We test your water, review your town’s data, and match a system proven to reduce those contaminants. If you’re on an older service line or in an area with PFAS detections, this is worth doing.

Do you install reverse-osmosis drinking water systems?

Yes. Under-sink reverse osmosis is one of the most effective ways to get clean, great-tasting water for drinking and cooking, removing a wide range of dissolved contaminants. We can pair a kitchen RO system with a whole-home softener or filter so you get treated water at every tap and the highest-purity water where you drink it.

How much does a water filtration or softening system cost?

As a general guide in Massachusetts, under-sink RO systems typically run about $300–$800 installed, water softeners about $1,500–$3,500, whole-home carbon/sediment filtration about $1,500–$4,000, and advanced whole-home PFAS/RO systems roughly $4,000–$10,000. The right system depends on your water and home, so we test first and give you an upfront, fixed quote. $0-down financing is available.

Do you work with Brita?

Yes, CleanTap is a certified BritaPRO installer, and we install BritaPRO whole-home systems along with other leading filtration and softening equipment. Because we’re not tied to a single box, we recommend what actually fits your water and your home after we test it, not whatever we happen to stock.

Is filtered water cheaper than bottled water?

Almost always, yes. A household that buys bottled water often spends more over a few years than a good filtration system costs, and you skip the plastic, the lugging, and the storage. Whole-home and RO systems give you clean water at every tap for a fraction of the per-gallon cost of bottled, which is a big reason our customers make the switch.

I’m on a private well, can you help?

Definitely. Private wells commonly have hardness, iron, manganese, sulfur odor, sediment, and sometimes bacteria or other concerns, and no utility monitors them for you. We test your well water, explain what we find, and design a treatment train, softening, filtration, disinfection as needed, to make it clean, clear, and safe at every tap.

Will a filtration system need maintenance?

Most systems just need periodic filter or media changes and occasional checks, which we make easy. We’ll tell you the schedule for your specific system up front, and we’re a local call away when it’s time. Good maintenance keeps your water quality high and protects your investment.

Do you offer financing on water systems?

Yes. We offer flexible, $0-down financing on qualifying filtration and softening systems, so clean water fits your budget without a big up-front cost. We’ll go over the options with your quote after the free water test.

What areas do you serve?

Greater Boston, the South Shore, Metro-South, and Eastern Massachusetts, including Boston, Quincy, Braintree, Weymouth, Dedham, Norwood, Mansfield, Foxboro, Franklin, and Plymouth. Not sure if you’re in range? Call (781) 630-5449 and we’ll let you know and book your free water test.
