Sean Paul was great. Simple easy process and our water is now fantastic. When we moved to etown we noticed how bad the water was and we should have done this sooner. I really thought it was going to be more expensive than it was. Don't wait.

We live in Rineyville and have very hard water. Culligan came out, tested my water, and walked me through solutions to have clean, soft water. Shawn and crew installed a water softener and whole house filter quickly and efficiently. They have great customer service. Culligan is highly recommended. Thanks.

Shawn Paul did an excellent job explaining the system and showing us how our water tested. Him taking his time with us gave us the confidence in the Culligan company. We decided to purchase that same day.They scheduled installation t for the next week.Derek the Service Manager and his assistant did a great job as well. After looking under my sink area. Derek suggested for me to place Reverse Osmosis filter cabinet and tank in crawl space due to they would take up most of my under sink cabinet. They hooked up RO to my refrigerator as well as the kitchen faucet. I was also impressed that they bypassed the soft water system away from my outside water spigets. They did this so I didn’t water grass with the salt from water softener. The salt will harm the grass.I suggest to enroll in the service plan as well. It covers all the filters, salt and service calls. It is worth the money.All in all I recommend going with Culligan Water System and the Elizabethtown Culligan Team.

We have used in home water softener and RO systems for 40 years. Never willing to invest in Culligan. We have gone thru appx 8 systems, and even tried salt free. Some worked better than others, true. However as we age we thought we should invest in more the assistance capability rather than the softener itself. We are truly pleased and surprised. Hindsight being 20/20 we should have gone with Cullligan up front. The difference is beyond comprehension. Finally truly clean and soft water. (first time ever I have obtained crystal clear ice cubes). All the money spent over the years was never giving us the quality and ease of use that we are now fortunate enough to experience. If you really want to seek healthy water and do your self a favor, reach out to Culligan Etown and ask for Shawn Paul to share his knowledge and understanding with you. Consider this an investment in your health, you will never be sorry you did.

Was happy to hear that the unit was working properly.Was very pleased with the representative who was very knowledgable & engaging while explaing each test and the results.

I've used this company for over 20 years and all of their employees are friendly/ongoing. The latest service offered, at no cost, is a check of the system to ensure that it's functioning properly. The technician, Shawn, explained each step and the results, the whole process took about 5 minutes. Nice new service.

Bradley came out same day as request for water test and consultation. He was very professional took a look at our current set up and needs gave us a competitive quote. Had whole home system put in. Installers were again very professional showed me how it worked and cycles, got the app downloaded and even talked some of the chemistry involved. Would work with again.

Very pleased with the service from Culligan. All of our questions were addressed and the whole process was explained. We purchased the Water Softener, Whole House Filter, to include the Reverse Osmosis System. Professionally installed, and on time. We researched water softener’s for about six months and elected to go with Culligan. Yes, you can purchase these systems online, however, you do not get the local support, not to mention all of the negative reviews we have seen from these online retailers. You would also have to pay the install, and that can come with a hefty price. Five Stars for sure. Thank you Culligan!

Recently had my system installed. The install was very quick, especially considering the space they were working with was very small. They cleaned up after themselves. They were informative and explained what to expect from my new system. Overall I would recommend them to anyone looking for better water quality.

Culligan of Elizabethtown is the place to go to take care of hard water issues experienced by most people in Hardin County. The product(s) and the service that our local Culligan provides are the best. Dale has been great in the 30 years or so that we have had Culligan products in our homes. First thing we did when we bought a new home was "call Culligan"!

Water Softener FAQs

Culligan Water offers a full-service installation to make getting started with your new system even easier.

The average installation takes about 2-4 hours.

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.
