Why Do Edmond
Homeowners LOVE Us?

“I’m definitely a Culligan fan!

We recently went on well water and even though it’s good water, it’s very hard. The Culligan salesman was easy to work with and the techs were very fast and efficient at installing / setting up the softener.

“Call for your free water testing and you won’t be disappointed!!! Thanks Culligan.

These guys saved the day for us. Our hard water was so bad it was destroying all of our faucets and appliances. They were fast, friendly, and extremely professional.

“ Since having the softener our dishes come out sparkling!

We have had Mollman’s residential water softener service for over two years, and it’s great. We have well water, and before having the softener our dishes came out of the dishwasher looking terrible, with deposits all over them. You could also tell there was long term build-up in many of the faucets, some which we had to replace. Since having the softener our dishes come out sparkling and we don’t see residue on any appliances or faucets. We haven’t had any issues with the service, and the company is prompt to answer any questions.
