Lexington Water Filtration, Clean, Safe Water at Every Tap

Lexington’s public supply is high quality. The town buys wholesale water from the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority, drawn from the Quabbin and Wachusett Reservoirs, and it is soft, treated, and disinfected with chloramine. The concern is not the supply but the pipe on your side of the meter. In homes built before roughly 1940, common near Lexington Common and the Battle Green, lead service lines and lead solder can affect water right at the tap even when the incoming water is clean. The only way to know what your specific home delivers is to test it, which CleanTap does for free in your home.

It is simple and comes with no obligation. One of our technicians visits your Lexington home at a convenient time and draws water samples directly from your taps, which matters here because the concern is your home’s own plumbing, not the town supply. We check for the issues that matter in Lexington, including lead in older pipes and solder, taste, and other concerns. Then we sit down with you and explain the results in plain English. If treatment makes sense, we recommend a right-sized solution; if it does not, we tell you honestly. Call (781) 630-5449 to book yours.

It is worth checking. Lexington’s incoming MWRA water is high quality, but homes built before roughly 1940, including many historic colonials in the older parts of town, can have lead service lines or lead solder in their plumbing that affect water at the tap. The good news is there are effective solutions. Depending on your test results, we may recommend targeted point-of-use filtration, an under-sink reverse osmosis system, whole-home filtration, or replacing an aging lead-bearing service line. We always test first so the fix matches your home, and $0-down financing keeps it affordable. Call (781) 630-5449.

As a certified BritaPRO installer, CleanTap offers the full range of home water treatment. That includes whole-home filtration to improve taste and reduce contaminants at every tap, under-sink reverse osmosis systems for excellent drinking and cooking water, and water softeners where they make sense. We also provide targeted filtration to reduce contaminants of concern such as lead and PFAS, and we can replace aging lead-bearing service lines. Every installation is sized to your test results and your home, performed by a licensed and insured team, and backed by $0-down financing. Call (781) 630-5449 to schedule your free in-home water test.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
