Frequently Asked Questions
What is a water softener and how do they work?
Water softeners reduce high concentrations of calcium and magnesium that cause hard water. These minerals can build up and corrode pipes, stiffen laundry, and dry out hair and skin. Resin beads within the softening systems pull these minerals out of your water, leaving you with softer, better water.
What is water hardness?
As water flows from its source to your tap, it can collect minuscule particles (like calcium and magnesium) along the way. Hardness in water indicates high concentrations of calcium, magnesium and other dissolved minerals, which may cause significant problems around your home.
How much does a water softener cost?
The cost of your water softening system depends on a variety of factors, including size, features, accessories and other considerations. The good news is that this is offset by the ability to avoid the ongoing costs incurred due to hard water problems. With a free, in-home water consultation and water test, your local Culligan water expert can help you find the right solution for your home.
How long does a water softener last?
On average, you should expect more than a decade of service out of a good quality softener like a system from Culligan water. Many of the parts in these systems are covered by 10-year warranties or even lifetime warranties. You can extend the lifespan of your system with our maintenance programs and ensure your system never runs out of salt with our Salt Delivery program.
What size water softener do I need?
The size of your system will depend on water hardness, usage and flow rate. With a free, in-home consultation, your local Culligan water expert can determine these answers and use their expertise to make a custom recommendation for your home.
