Why Houston Homeowners Choose Culligan for Water Softener Rentals

  1. Local Knowledge, Local Service

    Culligan has been treating Houston-area water for decades, and our team understands the specific challenges faced in Harris County and surrounding communities. Houston’s municipal water is primarily drawn from surface sources like Lake Houston, Lake Livingston, and the Trinity River, as well as groundwater from the Gulf Coast aquifer. While this water is disinfected with chlorine and chloramine to ensure safety, the bigger challenge for most households is hard water.

    Water hardness in Houston averages 135–300 mg/L (8–18 grains per gallon), which is considered moderately to very hard depending on the neighborhood. This leads to mineral scaling on fixtures, cloudy glassware, stiff laundry, dry skin, and premature wear on water-using appliances. With Culligan’s rental program, you’ll enjoy professionally installed and maintained water softening that keeps your home running smoothly, without the large upfront investment.

  2. Affordable, Flexible Options

    Renting a Culligan water softener gives you softer water from every tap for one low monthly fee. No large upfront payments, no long-term risks, just flexibility to upgrade, adjust, or change your system as your family’s needs evolve.

  3. Professional Installation and Maintenance Included

    Our licensed Houston-based technicians handle everything:

    • Equipment delivery
    • Professional installation and plumbing connections
    • Salt delivery, refills, and system checks

    All included in your monthly rental. That means no unexpected repair bills or DIY maintenance headaches.

  4. Ongoing Support for Peace of Mind

    Your relationship with Culligan continues after installation. As a rental customer, you’ll receive:

    • Priority scheduling for service
    • Ongoing support whenever you need it
    • Routine water testing and system checks to ensure your softener is always performing

    This is especially important in Houston, where water hardness varies widely across neighborhoods and seasonal changes in surface water supplies can affect your home.
