Total Defense from Bacteria, Viruses, PFAS and more!
Culligan’s unique Total Defense Cartridge targets an extensive list of viruses, bacteria and volatile organic compounds that a typical reverse osmosis system cannot. For example, the Total Defense Cartridge can filter out PFAS. PFAS comprises a group of manmade chemicals that includes perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS). PFASs typically do not break down in the environment, especially when spilled or improperly disposed of, and they can seep into the water supply.
Akron Tap Water
Because most of Akron and Canton’s tap water originates from surface water sources like lakes and rivers, the water can often take on the tastes and smells of the treatment chemicals. They have become increasingly noticeable as the city works to eliminate certain contaminants and impurities from the water supply.
Even with treatment, there are many minerals and impurities that can be completely removed from your water through the municipal treatment process. Some of these include harmful chemicals like hexavalent chromium(chromium-6), arsenic, and lead.
Akron is also susceptible to contamination from agricultural runoff, failing septic systems, municipal wastewater treatment discharges. All of these factors can impact your city tap water’s taste, smell, and safety.

Lead
Lead
Lead rarely occurs naturally in water; it usually gets into the water from the delivery system. Lead pipes are the main contributor to high lead levels in tap water. Other sources include parts of the water delivery system such as lead solder used to join copper pipes, brass in faucets, coolers, and valves. Let your Culligan Man recommend a water solution to solve your lead problem.

Chromium 6
Chromium 6
Chromium 6 (or hexavalent chromium) has recently been discovered in limited amounts in some water supplies. Chromium six is suspected of being a carcinogen, and should not be ingested at amounts above the federally mandated limits. We have never been alarmists, but if you are concerned about the quality of the water you drink, you might want to consider a reverse osmosis system. Reverse Osmosis is the only readily available system that reduces chromium 6.

Frequently Asked Questions about Culligan Reverse Osmosis Systems
I have heard a lot about Chromium 6 in drinking water in the news. What is Chromium 6 and can Culligan equipment filter out Chromium 6?
Yes, chromium six (or hexavalent chromium) has recently been discovered in limited amounts in some water supplies. Chromium six is suspected of being a carcinogen, and should not be ingested at amounts above the federally mandated limits. We have never been alarmists, but if you are concerned about the quality of the water you drink, you might want to consider a reverse osmosis system. Reverse Osmosis is the only readily available system that removes up to 97% of chromium six.
- What is Reverse Osmosis (R.O.)?
Reverse osmosis is a sophisticated multi-stage filtration system that is capable of removing up to 97% of all the dissolved minerals from your water. It is designed to make water that is at least as good as the water you buy in bottles. Many times, it’s even better. This reduces waste in landfills by using less bottled water, making reverse osmosis environmentally friendly.
- Is Reverse Osmosis water really as good as bottled?
Yes - The system uses multiple processes including Reverse Osmosis to make great tasting, low sodium drinking water. Reverse Osmosis removes about 97% of the TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) including salt and sodium from the water. Read the labels on bottled water and you will discover Reverse Osmosis is the same process used by most bottlers ... so in effect ... you really are getting ... "bottled water ... without the bottle".
- I already have a filter in my refrigerator? Why do I need anything else?
Refrigerator filters are typically just carbon, and while carbon filtered water is better than no treatment at all, it is limited in what it can remove. Only reverse osmosis is capable of removing dissolved minerals and chemicals from your water.
