Culligan Water Softening Systems

Protect process equipment with one of the world’s leading water softener systems.

The Culligan line of softeners is one the most complete in the industry, satisfying demands for scale reduction for flow rates from 1 to hundreds of cubic meters per hour.

With innovative technology found in the models like the HE (High Efficiency) softener such as Progressive Flow, Culligan Smart Controller, Brine Reclaim and Aqua-Sensor® technologies, Culligan Softener systems are among the most efficient and technologically advanced on the market.

Culligan High Efficiency Softener

Reduces operating costs up to 46% with patented technologies to optimize salt, water and electricity consumption

Smart Controller & High Efficiency valve

  • Multiple language full text display
  • Easy to connect to remote display, building management systems, PLC’s etc
  • Optional modem connection can alert Culligan if salt is needed or needs service
  • Upflow regeneration to increase efficiency

Brine reclaim

Optional brine reclaim system returns portion of reusable brine back to brine tank during regeneration, saving up to 25% of salt usage

AquaSensor®

Only regenerate when required – using the optional aquasensor internal probe regenerations can be initiated only when the resin is nearing exhaustion

FRP tanks

High impact FRP tanks are used up to 48” tanks or steel tanks with food grade epoxy coatings for up to 120” diameters

Resin media

High efficiency Cullex® resin is used in Culligan softener systems. The resin consists of highly porous, amber coloured, plastic beads which are covered with "exchange sites" that preferentially remove hardness ions and replace them with sodium, a "soft" ion. Once exhausted the resin is “regenerated” using a salt water brine solution and the softening process begins again.

Brine tanks

Long lasting brine tanks with corrosion proof components, including smart-brine probe to predict when you will need more salt.

Progressive Flow

Using the progressive flow feature of the Culligan Smart Controller, softeners can be installed in a chain, and will come on and offline as the flow requires, allowing peak water usages to be managed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hard water is water that contains dissolved minerals such as magnesium, iron and manganese, and most often calcium. Water naturally becomes hard as it moves over and through the earth to either a reservoir or into an underground aquifer. Hard water is probably the most common water problem found in municipal and well water supplies. Hard water can cause what is known as scale (normally calcium carbonate, or limescale as it is more commonly known) to build up inside appliances and equipment that utilise water, but particularly ones that heat the water such as boilers, dishwashers, washing machines, cooling systems etc. This can have a significant impact on energy consumption and efficiency.

Just 1mm of limescale in your hot water system can increase your energy use
by 7%*. The most common and effective treatment for hard water is a water softener.

* Source: http://www.carbontrust.com/media/7411/ctv051_low_temperature_hot_water_boilers.pdf

Culligan water softeners use Cullex® ion-exchange resin which act on the specific ions which cause scale, mainly Calcium (Ca2+) and Maganesium (Mg2+) ions. These ions are exchanged for sodium ions.

When all the available sodium Na+ ions have been replaced with calcium or magnesium ions, the resin must be re-charged, or as it is more commonly known regenerated by eluting the Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions using a solution of sodium chloride (brine solution).

In this way the unit can continue to soften the water by simply regenerating it periodically when it becomes exhausted using a salt water brine solution.
