California Water Softener Ban
In 2008, a number of cities across the state of California banned the use of salt-based water softeners in an effort to preserve freshwater supplies. Traditionally, water softening systems use salt to help eliminate minerals in your water, such as magnesium and calcium. Culligan’s Portable Exchange Service saw the need to provide an eco-friendly, convenient salt-free alternative to provide customers in these brine-restricted areas with soft water.
