Culligan knows the more informed you are about your water treatment systems, the more confident
you will be about its performance. It’s because of this and more than seventy years of commitment
to customer satisfaction that Culligan is providing this Performance Data Sheet to its customers.
NOTICE Read this Performance Data Sheet and compare the capabilities of this
unit with your actual water treatment needs. It is recommended that before
purchasing a water treatment unit, you have your water supply tested to
determine your actual water treatment needs.

Name of Substance USEPA Max. Contaminant Level pH Flow Rate Pressure
Barium 2.0 mg/L 7.5 + 0.5 9.4 gpm 15 (psig)

This system is certified for barium and radium 226/228 reduction based on hardness reduction. It is recommended you test your water
every 6 months to ensure the system is performing properly and that hardness, and therefore barium and radium 226/228, are being
reduced. Hardness test strips have been included. Additional strips are available from your local Culligan dealer.
The Culligan Gold Series 10” Water Softeners are tested and certified by WQA against NSF/ANSI Standard 372, CSA B483.1, and NSF/
ANSI Standard 44 for the effective reduction of hardness (calcium and magnesium) and barium/radium as verified and substantiated by
test data. The Culligan Gold Series 10” Water Softeners are tested and certified by WQA against NSF/ANSI Standard 61 for material
requirements. To maintain product certification and ensure uniform performance, the product is retested on a consistent basis.
The Culligan Gold Series 10” Water Softeners are certified by IAPMO R&T against NSF/ANSI Standard 372, CSA B483.1, and NSF/
ANSI Standard 44 for the effective reduction of hardness (calcium and magnesium) and barium/radium as verified and substantiated
by test data. The Culligan Gold Series 10” Water Softeners are certified by IAPMO R&T against NSF/ANSI Standard 61 for material

The Culligan Gold Series 10” Aqua-Sensor Water Softeners are registered under California Water Treatment Device Registration
Number 2027a and Iowa Water Treatment Device Registration Number 20334.
An efficiency rated water softener is a DIR softener which also complies with specific performance specifications intended to minimize
the amount of regenerant brine and water used in its operation. Efficiency rated water softeners shall have a rated salt efficiency of
not less than 3350 grains of total hardness exchange per pound of salt (based on NaCl equivalency) (477 grams of total hardness
exchange per kilogram of salt), and shall not deliver more salt than its listed rating. The efficiency is measured by a laboratory test
described in NSF/ANSI 44. The test represents the maximum possible efficiency the system can achieve. Operational efficiency is the
actual efficiency achieved after the system has been installed. It is typically less than the efficiency due to individual application factors
including water hardness, water usage, and other contaminants that reduce the softener’s capacity.
Refer to the Specifications, Familiarization and Warranty section of this Owner’s Guide (P/N 01018854) for more specific product information.
To avoid contamination from improper handling and installation, your system should only be installed and serviced by your Culligan Man.
Performance will vary based on local water conditions. The substances reduced by this system are not necessarily in your water.
Culligan water softeners are designed to work with any salt of good quality, although it is recommended that you
ask your local Culligan Man for his suggestion on the best type and grade of salt to use in this softener.
NOTICE This softener is not intended to be used for treating water that is microbiologically
unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
† The efficiency rated dosage is only valid at the 6lb. salt dosage for 10” models.
