"Myles was excellent! He tested our water and took the time to explain how our softener and reverse-osmosis system work. Knowledgeable, professional, and made everything easy to understand."

"Chaz is the man — I called for a quote and he responded right away, and even got our systems installed on a Saturday. I got two other estimates that weren't the quality of Culligan and cost much more — they beat the others hands down!"

"Incredible company and gentlemen. My well tested positive for bacteria — Clay explained what they'd do, and Luke called back in 30 minutes and walked me through my choices with humor and patience. If I could give 10 stars I would!"

FAQ

Questions, answered.

The things Northern California homeowners ask us most. Don't see yours? Call or book a free water test.

How do I know if I have hard water?
Spots on dishes and glassware, soap that won't lather, dry skin and hair, and scale on faucets are the classic signs. A free in-home water test tells you exactly what's in your water.
What's the difference between a softener and a conditioner?
A softener removes hardness minerals using salt; a salt-free conditioner reduces scale without adding sodium. We'll recommend the right fit for your home and water.
Is the water test really free?
Yes — a Culligan expert tests your water on-site and explains the results in plain language, with no cost and no pressure.
Do you service commercial and industrial accounts?
We do — including deionization, water testing, and treatment for restaurants, agriculture, and manufacturing across Northern California.
Can I pay my bill or manage my account online?
Yes. Use the Pay My Bill portal to view and pay invoices and manage your account anytime.
Do you deliver salt?
We do — scheduled salt delivery plus service and maintenance, so your system keeps running perfectly between visits.
Can I purchase salt?
Absolutely. You can order salt here and we'll bring it right to your door, or pick some up at our Chico location.
