Our Mission

To improve people’s drinking water at home through improved taste, healthier water with contaminants removed, and allow people the opportunity to reduce their purchasing of single-use plastic and glass bottled water.

About The Filter Tap Company

At The Filter Tap Company, we’re proud to be a local business serving the Cotswolds while creating opportunities for young people in our community. Our mission is simple: to make healthier, better-tasting drinking water accessible, affordable, and hassle-free.

We supply and install top-of-the-range filtered tap systems - all included in one price - and provide a maintenance service for both our own taps and other brands. To keep things easy, we diarise filter changes and automatically remind you when service is due. Our trained technicians visit your home every six or twelve months to handle replacements depending on which filter you’ve purchased, giving you complete peace of mind.

By choosing a filtered tap system, you’ll save money compared to bottled water, enjoy certified quality drinking water, and help reduce single-use plastic waste. Backed by superior customer service, proven filtration technology, and a genuine commitment to sustainability, we’re here to make upgrading your home’s water as simple as turning on the tap.

Dan Heaton

Dan Heaton has been in the Cotswolds construction and home renovation business for over 2 decades through his association and leadership of well-known Cheltenham-based ampm construction. Dan has seen the growth of many clients over the past few years in wanting to improve the water quality in their homes, through the growth of instant hot water taps and dedicated drinking water taps.

Dan saw the need was there, however the problem was always the same, who installs the tap? and who maintains the taps? as many of these products are sold as being “easy” to install and maintain, the reality being they are not and expertise is needed. Hence the birth of “The Filter Tap Company”. A full service home drinking water business.

Dan lives in Cheltenham and has a young family and is passionate about them all drinking healthy, great tasting water.

We’re trusted by homeowners like you across The Cotswolds.

From our local headquarters on Chosen View Road in Cheltenham, we sell, install and maintain our own filter tap systems, and also service filter taps from most well-known brands.

“I have owned a Quooker tap for two years, it beeps at me and I didn't realise I had to change the filter. I don't have to worry anymore as the Filter Tap Company will be changing the filter for me.”
Liana M., Cheltenham
“I had a Quooker tap and never realised it needed regular filter changes. The Filter Tap Company stepped in just in time saved me from a much bigger bill and extended the life of my system. I only wish I’d found them sooner.”
Lauren S., Stow On The Wold
“The best part is I don’t even have to think about filter changes anymore. The Filter Tap Company call me when it’s due, book everything in, and send an engineer. No hassle, no remembering dates, just perfect water all year round.”
Daniel S., Tewkesbury
“The installation was quick, professional, and completely stress-free. The engineer explained everything clearly and made sure we were confident using the new system. It’s honestly one of the best upgrades we’ve made to the house.”
Emma R., Charlton Kings
“I’ve always been a bit nervous about drinking tap water, especially after hearing about contamination scares. Having The Filter Tap Company install a system has given me total peace of mind. I know what I’m drinking is safe, clean and fresh.”

“The difference in taste is incredible. I never realised how much chlorine was affecting our water until we had a filter tap installed. Now the whole family actually enjoys drinking straight from the tap and we no longer need bottled water!”
