According to our recent survey, the top concern about the water in the Worcester, Newton, Cambridge & Lowell areas is the presence of contaminants.

Culligan Water of Massachusetts offers free water testing so you:

Know what contaminants are present in your water and how to reduce them.
Know how hard your water is so you can find a solution that fits your home, your water & your budget.
Know what type of treatment will provide you with healthy, great-tasting water.

There are three common types of water problems in our area that can be detected and addressed with a free water test:

Terrible Taste

Let’s be honest. The water in Massachusetts can taste horrible. Heavy chlorination and the miles of pipe city water must travel through before reaching your home, you think you’re drinking from a pool instead of your faucet. The rocks & minerals the water has dissolved can cause well water to taste metallic and gritty. Water testing lets you know what’s causing the distaste regardless of your water supply.

Hard Water

Hard water causes spots on glassware & shower doors, corrodes water-using appliances, and makes your hair and skin dry and brittle. Depending on the hardness of your water, the size of your home, and your family’s water consumtion, there are a variety of treatment options. A water test will provide you the information you need to find the right size solution for your home and budget.

Contaminants

Our Free Water Test includes Total Dissolved Solids, Iron, Manganese, pH, Chlorine, and Hardness. Or, you can have your water analyzed at our nationally accredited laboratory for a discounted rate. Our lab has the ability to test for Radon, Arenic, and bacteria AND let you know by what percentage certain treatment options can improve your water.

Culligan has been around since 1936 and we’ve been in the Massachusetts area for 53 years. You cannot serve a community for that long unless you take care of your customers.

It’s much cheaper for us to test your water and give you the proper equipment the first time compared to if we had to go back to correct it. The loss not only in our time and labor, but in goodwill, would far outweigh our costs involved with a water test in your home.

With the Do-It-Yourself mentality in most areas, if we started charging for a water test, we fear that too many people would get caught going with an ineffective solution that doesn’t fully take care of their needs. After all what good is water treatment if it isn’t designed to handle YOUR water?
