Your local Culligan Man is an expert on water quality in your community. So when water issues occur, we want to ensure you’re prepared with resources and solutions to access the best-quality water.
Water Quality Concerns
To better help address your water safety concerns, we dug deeper to understand what it is that people know about water, and conducted “The Truth About Water” survey.
Here are some quick facts about respondents’ water quality concerns:
- 24% of respondents do not think their water is completely safe for cooking, bathing, or consuming.
- 13% didn’t know they should have their water tested for impurities.
- 17% don't know how to have their water tested.
- 74% believe contaminations occur because of the municipalities’ infrastructure.
What many people are surprised to find out is that problem water is caused by many different factors, some of which can only be confirmed by a water test.
Diagnosing Water Contaminants
While water contaminants like iron, sulfur, and total dissolved solids present themselves through residue, odor, and discolored water, other contaminants like arsenic and lead can be harmful if used while cooking, bathing, or consuming, and can go undetected by the senses.
A Culligan lab-certified water test can detect these water contaminants, and your local Culligan Mancan diagnose what’s affecting your water quality and help identify a solution to target and treat your water.
