Water Quality & Plumbing Protection in Saugus, MA

Clean, Safe, Efficient Plumbing for Homes & Businesses

Your plumbing system isn’t just about moving water — it’s about protecting your property, your health, and your investment. At John Cacciatore Plumbing & Heating Inc, we provide expert water quality and system protection services throughout Saugus, MA and the North Shore. Whether you’re concerned about the quality of your water or want to safeguard your plumbing system from pressure damage or backflow, we’ve got you covered.

We install and maintain filtration systems, backflow preventers, and pressure regulators to ensure your water is clean, your fixtures are safe, and your system runs efficiently.

Why Water Quality & Protection Matter

Water issues often go unnoticed — until there’s a problem. Hard water can shorten the lifespan of your appliances. Backflow can contaminate your drinking water. Excessive pressure can lead to burst pipes and fixture damage. These risks are preventable with the right systems in place.

We design and install customized solutions to match your system, water source, and usage needs — for both residential and commercial properties.

Protect Your Health & Property

"Preventable issues like cross-contamination from backflow or appliance failure from hard water shouldn't be ignored. We provide the protective barrier your system needs."

Common issues we help solve:

  • Unpleasant taste or odor
  • Sediment or discoloration
  • Hard water buildup
  • Excessive system pressure

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can you test my water for contaminants?

We do not offer lab testing, but we can visually inspect for common water quality issues and help connect you with a certified water testing lab if needed.

Do I need a backflow preventer?

If you have an irrigation system, commercial property, or secondary water supply, Massachusetts plumbing code likely requires a backflow preventer.

What is a PRV, and do I need one?

A Pressure-Reducing Valve (PRV) helps maintain safe water pressure in your system. If your pressure is above 80 PSI, a PRV is highly recommended.

Can you install a filter for just one faucet?

Yes. We can install under-sink filters for kitchen sinks, ice makers, or specific fixtures where filtered water is desired.
