What our clients say

There’s a reason Culligan Huntsville & Birmingham AL is the best water treatment company in with over 10 4.7-Stars Google Reviews.

Really impressive! Noah (technician) and Brian (Sales rep.) were very professional, courteous, knowledgeable, careful, efficient, and most important to me, PUNCTUAL. We had set aside four hours for the job but Noah was finished in under four hours. Noah was very informative, his work area was very tidy and he cleaned up extremely well. We definitely recommend Culligan Water softener as it is working great and the pricing was just right.
Our experiences have always been top, notch for going on 18 years now!
Brian, Noah, and Tyler were all great to work with. No high pressure sales pitch. Every aspect of the installation process was explained and we trusted their advice regarding choice of drainage options.We chose the Smart connection softener and really appreciate all the features. This was a great purchase. We highly recommend Brian, Noah, Tyler and this product.
Salesman Brian & Tech Noah provided outstanding information on our new Culligan water softener system . After installation Noah throughly explained the system & took time answering our questions. Highly recommend.
We are from Kokomo, IN and relocated to Gurley, AL. I did research on multiple companies and when I visited the Culligan location and had Brian Shelor call me to go over the products and the company, I was convinced Culligan was the best company with the best products. I ordered a whole home water filtration system with a carbon filter, and I also ordered a tankless reverse osmosis water filtration system for our drinking, cooking and pet water.Noah and Tyler were our onsite installation team. They did a great job going over the installation process. They listened to my questions and worked with me during the installation of all the equipment. I was very impressed with the quality of work and the professionalism of both Noah and Tyler.I would definitely recommend Culligan, Brian, Noah and Tyler to anyone who is looking for a water filtration / reverse osmosis system! This is a great company with great employees!
We had an excellent experience getting our new Decatur office established. Brian, our salesperson, was amazing—he kept us informed every step of the way, was always friendly and helpful, and responded quickly whenever we had questions. The entire staff was great to work with and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Thank you!
THANK-YOU "BRIAN SHELOR"FOR SETTING ME UP WITH CULLIGAN WATER SOFTNER. WE ARE LOVING THE "AQUASENTIAL SMART HE" SOFTNER. SO FAR IT'S PERFORMING as well as you said. THANK-YOU SIR.
The guys did a great job installing. A few days in and can tell a noticeable difference in how soft our towels are (nothing changed but the water!). They answered all of my questions and were very nice. They were also tidy after finishing the install too. Excited to notice the other benefits!!
We just got our system installed yesterday and believe we made the right choice with equipment and company. We actually believe we can already feel the difference. Kudos to Brian who we dealt with in the beginning and the installers Mike and Tyler(I believe) for a great installation experience. From the beginning of installation, they were very accommodating as to where we wanted the equipment placed, very methodical and neat in the plumbing installation. They were professional, courteous, and made sure we understood the system and pleased before they left. Great job!
Very professional, the easiest company I have work with in a long time, Brian came out and was very informative on their product. They scheduled at my convenience Tyler came out and installed was exceptional.
Noah kept me informed of his arrival time. He took the time to explain how the system works and showed me all the ways to turn the water off should there be a leak.
We had a terrific experience with Culligan Water. We replaced a unit that was 11 years old. Culligan was extraordinarily responsive in troubleshooting the older unit and with scheduling the install on a quick turn. The technician was exceptionally professional, knowledgeable, and efficient in performing the install. Would highly recommend.
Noah was fantastic as our install technician. He was timely, an expert at installation and gave us very personalized training tips on our new soft water investment. We love Culligan! Thank you Noah!
Noah and Tyler showed up on time and installed a whole house water system and under counter RO system. Very professional and knowledgeable.
Soft water is wonderful. The Culligan system is great. Their installation was top quality craftsmanship. I Recommend to anyone wanting to get the benefits of soft water.Ask for Noah.
Highly recommend for water treatment and service.
Definitely worth the expense. The water is deliciously filtered and having the unit we had, was very convenient.
No thank you
Timely and professional. They always do a great job.
We met with multiple water enhancing providers as we have always had some degree of system when living in Minnesota or Texas. Our sales representative, Brian was great, he communicated before even coming out, tested our water in a simple manner, did not have a 2 hour presentation, but rather asked about our needs and explained the different solutions and what they offered. He did not change his demeanor when I said I was still waiting on other quotes and politely stated to reach out for any more information.Our technician Noah was hands down amazing. He called to let me know his ETA on install day and answered my questions. I was at work, so he and my wife FaceTimed me as Noah wanted to make sure he understood exactly what I was hoping for, and then explained the full process for the installation. He called again later when he noticed our current plumbing was not done correctly and asked if he could run their system differently so it wouldn’t flood my garage.The install looks great and my wife knew how to run in, and explain to me how it operated when I got home. An added feature we love is bypassing our system through the app for watering the lawn. The customer service we received is what I appreciate and system works amazing!
10 out of 10 from start to finish! Brian came out and completed a quick water test at our home and provide two great recommendations. Today was our install and we couldn't be happier with the level of professional service and care the install technicians took while at our home. NO MORE HARD WATER, THANK YOU!!!
Spoke with Laura today at the office. She was very helpful!! So thankful
The best way to have clean, clear, truly filtered water for your home, appliances, and to drink. It does make a difference.
We just had Culligan installed! Sales rep Brian was great.We also had Rainsoft come out. Rainsoft was very high pressure, and 3 times the cost. It felt very “dog and pony show”. They also wouldn’t leave any brochure or offfical pricing, at the end just left us with a hand written price on blank piece of paper. They will try to tell you spending 6k will even out with “free soap” they give you.Culligan was exact opposite. No pressure, very honest on what system you do and don’t need and our price was the same price as others in our neighborhood and thousands less. When I asked about higher level machines, he said it wasn’t worth it for what we have and zoned in on 2 products he would recommend. We noticed immediately the difference. During install they were very clean on the work also.
Great Customer service, very friendly, the water is very clean and crisp.
I had a leak from my reverse osmosis tank line. The technician dispatched was Noah Gregg. What a nice young man. Wish we could adopt him. What makes this a Five Star visit was Noah's timeliness, attentiveness to my concerns, and attention to details. Noah knew his product and quickly resolved my leak. Great Job, Noah. Thanks again.
I will never own another home without a Culligan Water Softener... the difference between the hard water of North Alabama and the water filtered through the Culligan Water Softening system is substantial. We see many advantages, including softer skin & cleaner hair, fewer water spots on dishes & silverware and other lesser known benefits such as lower energy bills, healthier house plants and longer life of clothing. The professional installation and excellent customer service from Culligan Huntsville makes the process simple and pleasant.

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.
