Water filtration involves removing small particles like sediment,
manganese, iron, chlorine and even gasses like hydrogen sulfide from
the water. The filter traps these particles (in sizes as small as 10
microns), as water travels through it. Periodically the filter must be
backwashed, so the unit has to be taken off-line and the flow of water
through the filter is reversed. The reverse flow of water is directed to
a drain and the trapped sediment is rinsed out. When completed, the
filter is ready to work. Culligan Water Filters can be configured to
solve any water problem. To learn more about water filtration, check out the FAQ page.

Your water comes from one of two places, a private well or a municipal water supply, making the water in every home unique. The EPA suggests that you check your well water annually. Water from municipalities travels a long way through new and old pipes before it reaches your home. A water main break may introduce contaminants into the water. Water from different wells may be blended. Your home may be on an older water main. The pipes in your home may add additional contaminants depending on the age of your home. That's why Culligan suggests a water test before we recommend solutions. Culligan has water solutions that are specifically designed to solve any water problem.
If you are on well water, traces of iron in the water can stain your clothing and fixtures. Culligan has a range of solutions to remove iron. The concentrations of the iron in your water will determine the solution. A water test is the best way to be sure to get proper sizing and solution for your home and family needs.
In many areas chlorine is added to the water as a disinfectant. Chlorine can irritate skin and has an objectionable odor. A whole house carbon filter or carbon and softening system can remove the chlorine so your water tastes better at every faucet in your home and your showers are more enjoyable.
The strong rotten egg smell of sulfur permeates the water from many wells across the country. Culligan has the technology to remove the sulfur to give you fresh tasting water. Call for a free water analysis to help us determine the right solution for your family.
Cloudy, hazy water gets that way due to sediment in the water. The Culligan Filter-Cleer water filter removes dirt, silt, clay and other types of sediment from your water supply. The Filter-Cleer is four filters in one. They work at different levels, stacked on top of each other, each removing a particular size of sediment particle.
Absolutely no cartridges to change or clean. The Filter-Cleer filter treats all the water in your house, not just from one faucet.
