Advanced Softener Options for Your Home

There are four softener sizes available, and all of them can be installed inside or outside. Your local Culligan water expert will provide recommendations based on your water flow, usage, hardness and pipe size. They may also recommend additional product options to address any other water issues or needs you may have.

Proportional Brining

Increase efficiency and reduce salt usage by allowing your softener to only regenerate the part of the resin bed that has been exhausted.

Aqua-Sensor®

This patented technology adjusts to changes in water hardness so it only regenerates as needed, enabling more efficient operation.

Salt Level Monitor

Effortlessly maintain your system with a monitor that tells you how many days of salt are remaining in your tank, with notifications available through the Culligan Connect App

Leak Sensor

Experience comfort and peace of mind with an external leak sensor that can detect leaks around your tank as well as nearby water-using appliances. If detected, you’ll receive alert notifications right through our app.

Water Softener Installation: What to Expect

Learn everything you need to know about getting started with your smart water softener.

How does this water softener system work?

Water softener systems operate through basic chemistry. The main tank of the system is filled with negatively charged resin beads. Hard water is caused by high levels of calcium and magnesium, which are both positively charged ions. As hard water pumps through the water softening system, the calcium and magnesium are attracted to the resin beads and removed from your water. The salt water in the brine tank is regularly flushed through the resin beads to rinse off the hardness minerals and keep them working effectively.

Culligan’s trained technicians provide full-service installation to make it simple to get started with your new system. Your local Culligan water expert will connect your water softening system to your water supply, electrical, drain and the salt-filled brine tank, and you’ll be all set. The average installation takes about 2-4 hours.
