ROSEMONT, Ill., May 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Despite a recent survey from Culligan International, a world leader in the treatment of water, indicating that nearly 75% of North Americans think water safety is a growing issue, only 33% have had their tap water tested to ensure its safety.* As a result, Culligan is recognizing National Drinking Water Month this May by offering consumers helpful recommendations on how to ensure the water in their home is indeed cleaner and safer to drink.

“For years, we’ve taken the safety of our water for granted,” said Judd Larned, President of Culligan Water. “But our aging infrastructure along with new and emerging contaminants have heightened the risks of harmful impurities such as lead, pesticide runoff, pharmaceutical residuals and PFOA/PFOS potentially contaminating our water supply. National Drinking Water Month is the perfect time to educate consumers on how they can ensure the water in their homes is cleaner and safer to drink.”

With the Aquasential Smart RO, homeowners can have peace of mind with an unlimited supply of great-tasting, cleaner, safer water.

“The bottom line is that it’s important to know what’s in your water. Our water experts can conduct a quick, free, in-home test and allow Culligan to customize a treatment solution that is right for your home and lifestyle,” said Larned.

Culligan is also celebrating National Drinking Water Month with two special offers that will help ensure cleaner and safer drinking water at home. For a limited time, Culligan is offering one month free on its bottled water delivery service. Consumers who sign-up for the service will receive three free water cooler bottles and a standard cooler rental. For those looking for an under the sink filtration solution, Culligan is offering a one-month free trial on the Aquasential Smart RO system. Dealer participation may vary.
