Most people in the Uintah Basin already know their water is hard. What they usually do not know is how hard, what else is along for the ride, and what it is quietly doing to their water heater, fixtures, and appliances.
CPR (Clausse Plumbing Repair & Water Treatment) offers free water testing for homeowners in Vernal and the surrounding communities. We test your water, explain the results in plain terms, and tell you whether you actually need treatment — including when the answer is no.
Please note: our free testing covers household water supplies. Water well testing is a separate, paid service and is not included in the free testing — details below.
Our free water test is done at your home, on your actual water — not a generic regional average. We look at what your water is doing to your plumbing and what it would take to change it, then walk you through the results while we are there.
You get:
If treatment does make sense, we will show you the options, from a water softener for hardness through whole-home filtration and drinking water systems.
This matters, and we would rather be clear about it up front than surprise you at the door.
We do test water wells — but well testing is a separate, paid service. It is not part of the free water testing offer.
Well testing is a different job from a household water test. A private well has no municipal treatment behind it, so it needs its own testing approach, and the results carry different consequences for your family. That work takes more time and it costs money to do properly — so we charge for it rather than cutting corners to fit it into a free visit.
If you are on a private well and want it tested, call us and ask specifically about well water testing. We will tell you what it involves and what it costs before you commit to anything.
Call or Request a Visit: Tell us you would like the free water test and we will schedule a time.
We Test at Your Home: On your water, at your tap.
We Explain the Results: In plain language, while we are standing there — not in a report you have to decode later.
You Decide: If treatment makes sense we will quote it. If it does not, we will say so and leave you to it.
Hard water is not a health problem, but it is expensive. Dissolved minerals come out of solution as scale, and that scale collects in the places you least want it: on your water heater’s heating surface, inside fixture cartridges, and in appliance valves.
The costs show up indirectly — a water heater working harder and failing sooner, faucets that need repair years early, more soap and detergent to get the same result, and appliances that do not reach their expected life. Testing tells you whether that is what is happening at your house.
There is no obligation attached to the free test. If you want to think about it, that is fine — you will have the results and an honest read on what they mean.
If you do want to move forward, everything is on the table: softeners for hardness, filtration for taste, odor, iron, and sediment, and drinking water systems at the tap. See our water treatment services for the full picture.
Free Means Free: No charge for the household water test, and no obligation afterward.
We Will Tell You Not to Buy: If your water does not need treatment, we say so.
Clear About What Costs Money: Well testing is a paid service and we tell you that before we come out, not after.
Local Knowledge: We work on Basin water every day and we know what it does to plumbing here.
Plumbers and Water Treatment Under One Roof: The people testing your water are the people who understand the plumbing it runs through.
