Introduction

It's All So Easy, So Economical, So Efficient, So Enjoyable!
Kind To Skin And Complexion
Soft water will help prevent red, itchy or dry skin because there are no hardness impurities to cause sore-
ness, no soap curd to coat the skin. Shaving is easier, smoother—either with a blade or electric shaver.
Bathing And Showering
You'll use far less soap with conditioned water. Use your soap very sparingly—not as you did before soft
water. Just a quick rinse removes all lather, leaving your skin pleasantly smooth and silky because now it's
free of sticky soap curd and film.
Saves Washing Costs. Helps Control Environmental Pollution
Soft water washes whiter and cleaner with less soap or detergent. Because the hardness impurities are re-
moved, your soap can concentrate solely on washing. People usually find that they can reduce the amount
of soap they use substantially. If you normally use a cup per wash load with hard water, try using 1/3 cup
depending on the size of your wash load and the degree of soil. Different amounts are required, but you
can use less with softened water. An added bonus is the fact that your washable fabrics will last longer.
Super Hair Conditioning
Soft water is great for scalp and hair care. No insoluble deposits are formed. Hair is shinier, softer, more
manageable. Reduce the amount of shampoo you have normally used.
Dishes Are A Delight
Washed by hand or in a dishwasher, glassware, dishes and silver wash cleaner, easier. Follow your
dishwasher manufacturer's instructions. Soft water promotes sanitation because no greasy hard water film
can form to collect or harbor bacteria.
Easier Housekeeping, Gleaming Fixtures
You'll be amazed at the marvelous difference. Just a swish of the cloth, and the bathtub or shower and
fixtures are clean and sparkling. Imagine, no scouring! No hard water scum to cause rings, streaks, spots
and stains. To keep their gleaming luster, simply wipe fixtures with a towel after use. Formica, tile, walls,
floors, woodwork surfaces clean easier, stay clean longer. You'll save on cleaning aids and save on time.
Saves Water-Heating Energy, Helps Water-Using Appliances
Soft water reduces the formation of rock-like hard water scale that encrusts water heaters, hot water pipes,
shower heads, and water-using appliances. This scale can cause premature maintenance and failure.
Elimination of hard water also provides substantial energy savings because scale acts as an insulator,
wasting electricity or gas used to heat water.
Water For Lawns And Household Plants
If possible, lawn sprinkling faucets should be supplied with hard water primarily because it is uneconomi-
cal to soften so much water.
Household plants are much more sensitive than lawns with respect to the kind of water which is best. First,
because they receive no rainfall and, second, there is little or no drainage of the soil. Preferably they
should be watered with rainwater or water which is low in mineral content such as distilled or demineral-
ized water. Softened water is not recommended for house plants because a build-up of sodium in the soil
may interfere with efficient absorption of water by the plant root system. Additional information may be
obtained from your independently operated Culligan dealer.
Culligan Municipal Softener
With the Culligan Municipal softener you will experience the above benifits in addition to the reduction of
chlorine taste and odor for a fresh, clean taste and smell.
