Water Treatment in Claremont, NC

What City of Claremont's latest water quality report says, and what it means for a Claremont home.

What this means for your home

Claremont is inside City of Claremont's service area on the state's water-system map.

  • City of Claremont's report doesn't list hardness. Most reservoir-fed systems in this region are soft, but a quick hardness test at your tap is the only way to know before anyone recommends a softener.
  • 38.2% of homes in Claremont were built before 1980. EPA notes homes built before 1986 are more likely to have lead in their plumbing, so a certified-lab lead test at the tap is a sensible first step in an older home.
