The Bad

  • Installation Services
  • Undisclosed Information

Installation Services

Culligan only offers installation services based on location and certain products. Although you have the product shipped to your home, you have to ask whether installation services are available. If installation services are available in your area and with your product, you will have to pay an additional fee for installation.

Undisclosed Information

There is a lot of information that Culligan doesn't include on their website. They do not provide any information regarding contract length or a cancellation policy. Other industry competitors are very transparent when providing information about contracts. Usually there are month to month contracts or yearly contracts, but Culligan does not release this information on their website. Additionally, they do not disclose if they have a cancellation or refund policy regarding contracts. They also don't disclose information regarding coverage.

The Bottom Line

Culligan values customer satisfaction and providing quality service to their customers. Although they don't disclose information about contracts and installation services on their website, they offer good products for a reasonable price. We highly recommend Culligan for all water softener needs.

Honesty is the best way to speak of the business I was very happy with it and I'll recommend it for everyone they actually tested our well water and explained that it was better than the product that I was gonna receive with them super honest. The employee from the Culligan office who was assigned to our appointment was very straightforward and I couldn't believe he truly told me that my deep well water was more pure than the bottle H2O that I was going to be getting with them and I should be thankful for the aquafier we'd tapped into when putting the deep well in at the house and property my family had recently purchased a super wonderful clean product for my family and I was truly blessed

I would not use them again. They are affordable but not worth the system they provide. Its not cheap but feels like it is. You have to pay extra for salt bags.

Culligan water softeners has helped me to get the clean soft water for me and my family. It helps on corrosion of my pipes, great for washing clothes and I know that the impurities are gone.

In my area the men are very busy so we have to oder our salt before we are out of course but when they do show they are very friendly and even add the salt themselves.

Good product and services but didn't get much use for the product until the grandkids were over, but as a family we love the quality of the water.

Little over priced. Return policy was a little limited. Water softener worked just fine. Seems like a quality product.
