Learn everything you need to know about getting started with your smart water softener.
Nitrate in groundwater originates from nitrogen, a naturally present plant nutrient, and from inorganic fertilizers and animal manure. As water from rain and irrigation flows through soil into the groundwater, it can potentially pick up nitrate along the way.
Nitrate in groundwater is more likely to be a problem in areas where farming and agriculture are common. Nitrate contamination can also be present in densely populated areas due to heavy use of lawn fertilizers and failing septic systems. Nitrate contamination is typically in very low concentrations, but some areas have levels of nitrate that can create health problems.
Yes. This nitrate water filter is ideal for well water. In fact, it is the only WQA-certified whole house nitrate reduction system available today.
If you are dealing with more than one well water problem, you may require multiple solutions, such as a reverse osmosis system or a water softener. With a free, in-home water consultation, your local Culligan water expert can help determine what systems your home may need.
This system should not affect taste or smell. If you have issues with unpleasant odors or tastes, other Culligan filters can help. It is recommended to schedule a free water consultation to find out more about your water problems and determine the right solution.
Any kind of system that improves the quality of your water through some type of water treatment – be it softening, filtration or both – can be considered a home water conditioner. Having a whole house water conditioner like the Smart HE nitrate water filter can address nitrate in your water.
Culligan provides a free, in-home water consultation where your local Culligan expert can help you get started with water testing. They will be there to help you from your consultation to installation and beyond to ensure your system is working properly so you can have cleaner, safer water.
Nitrate has no taste, smell or visual signs, so it is recommended to get your water tested if you have reason to be concerned that you may have this issue with your water.
The nitrate conditioner tank is filled with an anion resin, which is positively charged. Because the nitrate ions are negatively charged, the resin attracts them and pulls them out of your water. There is a second tank containing a brine solution, which regularly rinses the resin to keep it working effectively.
This system is certified for nitrate reduction specifically, but other Culligan filters can help address issues such as unpleasant tastes and smells, stains on dishes and fixtures or clogged appliances. Schedule a free water consultation with a local Culligan water expert to find out more about your water problems and see if your home may benefit from multiple systems.
