All Makes and Models

What We Service and Repair

Clear Water Filtration services all makes and models of water treatment equipment, including systems installed by other companies. Our service vehicles carry common parts, and our Waitsfield shop can often make what is not on the truck, so most visits end with the system back in service.

If you are not sure what you have, tell us the brand and model printed on the unit when you request service and we will bring the right parts.

Equipment We Service:

  • Water softeners from Kinetico, Entipur and other salt-based softener brands
  • Reverse osmosis drinking water systems including the Kinetico K5 and under-sink units
  • UV disinfection systems including Viqua lamps, sleeves and sensors
  • Iron, manganese and sulfur filters including aeration, greensand and Stenner chemical feed systems
  • Whole-house and point-of-entry filters from Aqua Bubble and others
  • Chemical feed pumps including calibration and chemical replenishment

Symptoms We See Most

Common Water Softener and Filter Repairs

Most water softener repair calls start with one of a handful of symptoms. Here is what usually sits behind each one and what our technicians do about it.

Softener Not Regenerating or Water Suddenly Hard

Hard water returning overnight usually means the softener is not regenerating: a salt bridge in the brine tank, exhausted or fouled resin, or a bypass valve left in the wrong position after other plumbing work. We check the bypass and salt first, run a manual regeneration, and test the resin before recommending anything more.

Salt Bridging and Brine Tank Problems

A hard crust of salt can form above the water line and keep the brine from reaching the resin, so the tank looks full while the softener runs dry. We break up the bridge, clean the brine tank, and check the float and brine line so the problem does not come back.

Reverse Osmosis Running Slow or Tasting Off

A slow faucet or an off taste from an RO system usually points to spent pre-filters, a membrane past its life, or low pressure in the storage tank. We replace the filters and membrane as needed, recharge or replace the tank, and sanitize the system.

UV Lamp Alarms and Annual Lamp Replacement

UV lamps lose output well before they burn out, and Viqua systems sound an alarm when intensity drops or lamp hours run out. We replace the lamp, clean or replace the quartz sleeve, and confirm the sensor reads correctly. If your home runs both, ask us to fold annual lamp replacement into your water softener service visit.

Pressure Loss or Staining Returning

Falling pressure or orange and black staining coming back usually means clogged filter media or an iron filter that is not regenerating. We backwash or replace the media, check the control valve, and retest the water so you know the fix took.

Stay on Schedule

Service Plans for Vermont Homeowners

A service plan takes the calendar off your plate. Each visit covers scheduled filter and media replacement, system inspections and tune-ups, water quality retesting, and salt delivery and replenishment for water softening systems, on a schedule matched to your equipment and your water.

Compare the schedules on our residential service plans page, or request service for a one-time visit. If you would rather check a setting yourself first, our product manuals page collects the owner guides for the systems we carry.

Do You Service Systems You Did Not Install?

Yes. We service all makes and models, including systems installed by other companies. For less common equipment we may need to order parts before the repair is finished. If a unit is beyond economical repair, we tell you so and quote a replacement matched to your current water test.

Flexible Service Schedules

Maintenance Programs That Fit Your Needs

We offer maintenance on multiple schedules to match your system requirements and usage patterns.

Monthly Service

Ideal for commercial and industrial systems with high usage rates that require frequent monitoring and media replenishment.

Quarterly Service

Popular for businesses and homes with complex treatment trains that benefit from regular professional attention and water quality verification.

Annual Service

The standard for most residential water treatment systems, including comprehensive system inspection, filter replacement, and performance verification.

Biennial Service

For straightforward residential systems with lower service demands, every-two-year visits keep your equipment running smoothly.

When You Need Us Most

Emergency Repair Service

Water treatment emergencies don't wait for business hours. Clear Water Filtration provides emergency repair service 7 days a week, 7am to 9pm, and our service vehicles carry a comprehensive inventory of common parts, so many repairs are completed on the first visit.

A failed UV system leaving your well water unprotected, a malfunctioning softener flooding your basement, a commercial system down during peak production - our team responds promptly with the expertise and equipment to get you back up and running.
