Why Choose Us
Selecting a water treatment provider is an important decision for your home or business. St. Albans residents consistently choose our team for these compelling reasons:
We're not a national franchise or corporate chain. Clear Water Filtration is a genuine Vermont family business, now in our second generation of ownership. When Jen and Steve took over from their father, they continued the tradition of personal service and community commitment that defines our approach.
As an Authorized, Independent Kinetico Dealer, we bring you access to the industry's most advanced water treatment technology. Kinetico systems are renowned for their reliability, efficiency, and non-electric operation. Our three-decade partnership with this premium brand means we have deep expertise in selecting, installing, and maintaining these exceptional systems.
Vermont faces significant PFAS contamination challenges, and our expertise is recognized at the highest levels. We hold multiple government contracts for PFAS and PFOA treatment, and our owner Jen serves on the Technical Advisory Committee to the Governor of Vermont, advising on water quality concerns and issues statewide.
Unlike many water treatment companies, every member of our service team is a licensed plumber. This means we understand the complete picture of your water system, from well or municipal supply through every fixture in your home or business. Our plumbing expertise ensures proper installation and integration with your existing systems.
Water problems don't wait for convenient hours. Our team provides emergency service seven days a week, from 7am to 9pm. When St. Albans residents face urgent water quality issues, we respond quickly to restore their peace of mind.
We manufacture many of the components we need for service calls right in our Vermont facility. This means faster repairs, custom solutions, and reduced wait times for parts. It's another way we maintain control over quality and service timelines.
Local Water Challenges
Understanding local water conditions helps St. Albans residents make informed decisions about treatment. Our decades of experience in Franklin County have given us deep knowledge of the specific challenges this area presents.
The geological composition of Franklin County produces water with elevated mineral content. Calcium and magnesium create the hard water that leaves scale deposits on fixtures, reduces appliance efficiency, and makes cleaning more difficult. Our water softening systems, particularly our Kinetico twin-tank models, provide continuous soft water without the interruption of regeneration cycles.
Many St. Albans properties rely on private wells, which can contain:
PFAS chemicals have been detected in water supplies across Vermont, including areas of Franklin County. These "forever chemicals" require specialized treatment, and our government-contracted expertise ensures St. Albans residents have access to effective solutions.
Chlorine from municipal treatment, hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg smell), and other compounds can make water unpleasant to drink. Our whole-house filtration systems and point-of-use solutions restore water to its natural, clean taste.
