Lynden-area water can contain hardness minerals, iron, chlorine, sulfur, or naturally occurring bacteria. The right water test takes away the guesswork and helps you understand what may be affecting your water.

What we do
How Local Water Testing Helps Choose the Right System
Many water concerns can look similar at first. Staining, odor, cloudy water, scale, and poor taste can each have more than one possible cause. Professional water testing helps the Lynden office review the actual water quality at your property before recommending equipment.
After testing, Clearwater Systems can explain which treatment options make sense, which issues should be prioritized first, and whether your home may benefit from one system or a combination of solutions.
Drinking Water Filtration
For Lynden customers, drinking water filtration may be helpful when testing or symptoms point to chlorine taste or odor, mineral content or TDS, and tannin-related discoloration. Depending on the water test results, Clearwater Systems may recommend drinking water filtration, reverse osmosis, or another point-of-use treatment option.
Water Softeners
Local testing averages show hardness around 7.2, compared with Clearwater’s preferred result of less than 1. A water softener may help reduce hardness minerals that cause white spots, scale buildup, dry skin, stiff laundry, and appliance wear.
Water Testing
Water testing is the best first step for Lynden homeowners and businesses. It helps identify concerns such as hardness, iron, pH balance, TDS, taste, odor, bacteria-related nuisance issues, or other local water quality conditions before a treatment system is selected.
Whole House Water Filters
Whole house filtration may be considered when water issues affect more than one fixture. For Lynden homes and businesses, this may include iron staining, sulfur or rotten egg odors, iron-related bacteria concerns, chlorine taste or odor, and tannin discoloration, depending on the results of a local water test.
Salt and Water Delivery
Clearwater Systems can also help with ongoing water treatment supplies and delivery services where available. This may include water softener salt, bottled water, water cooler support, filters, and related supplies depending on your address and local route.
If your home uses a water softener, salt delivery can make maintenance easier by reducing the need to lift, haul, and store heavy bags. Contact the Lynden office to confirm delivery options for your Lynden home or business.

We needed a water softener system and were recommended to use Clearwater Systems. The salesman came out and explained how the system worked, tested our water and we scheduled an appointment to have the system installed. If memory serves, they were available to install it the next week. The two servicemen who installed it were very professional and polite. They explained how the different parts operated and what to look for as an indicator when to change the filter. They told us if we have any questions to feel free to call or stop by the office. We were very happy with the whole experience. -

Reached out to them to assess our well water softener set up and sought their advice on how to manage sulfur and rust smell in our water. Initial visit was free! Mark came out to test our water and discuss options for treatment. He was very professional and kind. He didn’t try to sell us anything we didn’t need. He offered to start off with a simple filter addition to our current setup based on water test results. We booked them the following week for installation. Tony was our installer - again very kind and professional. Our new filter is up and running today, so no official results on whether it resolves the smell issue but I’m confident Clear Water will see us through to the end! I’ll update this review accordingly if anything changes! -
