Are Culligan Water Softener Parts Easy To Access?

One advantage to having a Culligan water softener is that Culligan water softener parts are usually really easy to get.

This is because Culligan is such a huge company, with close to a thousand dealers across the United States and Canada. Culligan also serves the UK, offering a full range of services including water coolers, filtration systems and water softeners.

Culligan dealers sell any replacement parts that might be needed for all of their water treatment systems, and a Culligan service technician is always willing and able to replace any Culligan water softener parts that need replacing.

Another reason why Culligan water softener parts are so easy to obtain is that there are so many Culligan units out there that have been replaced or otherwise recycled that there is an abundance of good used parts available.

When you buy a new Culligan system, it is, of course, protected by Culligan’s 30 day money back guarantee, which gives you the opportunity to return or exchange any unit that is faulty or that you are not completely satisfied with. After that, the manufacturer’s warranty generally protects the consumer against faulty parts, so check with your dealer to see if replacement parts are covered under your warranty before buying any yourself.

After the warranty period has passed, you can exercise your option of using second-hand parts if you find that they are significantly less expensive than the new ones.

However, whether it is a Culligan water softener that needs to be repaired or any other appliance, it is a good idea to find out the price of new parts before automatically resorting to used parts.

In some cases, the new replacement part is the same price or close to the same price as the used one, and when purchasing a new part from a licensed dealer, there will be no doubt that you are getting exactly the part you need for your system.

You may be able to install parts yourself if you have some mechanical aptitude and a good general knowledge of your water treatment system, depending on which parts you need to replace. A water softener is not a terribly complex system, composed of very few moving parts, and there are only a few key components that are usually prone to wearing out.

One of the Culligan water softener parts that commonly needs to be replaced is the tank. Culligan actually offers tank exchange for all of the water softening systems that they sell. All you have to do is call your local dealer and arrange for a service technician to come and exchange your old tank for a new one. You may also be able to bring your old tank into the Culligan dealer to make the exchange, but talk to the dealer first to make sure that the tank will still be eligible for exchange if you remove it yourself.

Culligan has a tendency to discourage customers from servicing their water softeners because they want to ensure that the job is done by a professional.
