What our clients say

There’s a reason Culligan Rochester is the best water treatment company in with over 11 Top Rated-Stars Google Reviews.

Great customer service!! And great tasting water!
They are always accommodating and consistent in delivering good service.  It's been a pleasure doing business with them.
A little pricey but very polite. My only problem was that when I had a service call scheduled, Culligan was unable to give me an exact time. They could only narrow the time down to an 8 hour window. Unfortunately, I am not able to take a day off from work to wait for the Culligan man. Besides that they were knowledgeable and helpful.
Bought a water softener system for the house. Treated like royalty. Quick professional installation.
I had Culligan install a system in my new home in 2011. Still works great, and no need to scrub the shower doors. Would highly recommend. PS. My old house had something i purchased from sears. Replaced two units within 4 years. Thanks Culligan!
I had my Culligan system installed 5 years ago, last year sold the house and bought a new one, I had the guys move my system from old house to new house and cannot imagine being without it! Thanks to Andrew and his team, they are great!

Watch: What to expect at Your Water Softener Installation

The price of a Culligan water softener will depend on the system as well as its features, efficiency, durability, capacity and more. Culligan Water offers flexible payment plans whether you choose to rent, purchase or finance. Schedule a free, in-home consultation today and a Culligan Water expert will help you determine what your home needs.

Water softeners work through basic chemistry. The main tank of water softening systems is filled with negatively charged resin beads. Meanwhile, hard water is caused by high amounts of calcium and magnesium, which are both positively charged molecules. As hard water pumps through a water softener, the calcium and magnesium are attracted to the resin beads and removed from your water.

To help determine the appropriate size for your water softener, your local Culligan Water expert will assess factors like the hardness of your water, household water usage and flow rate. Schedule a free, in-home consultation today to get custom recommendations based on your home’s needs.

If you’re dealing with the unfavorable effects of hard water — like dry skin and hair, limescale buildup around faucets and showerheads, soap scum on shower walls or too much wear and tear on your water-using appliances — you may need a water softener. That said, remember that not all systems were created equal. With Culligan Water, you can rest assured that you’ll get a full-service partner, quality products with durability and an established brand you can trust.
