Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What is the $10.00 deposit on my bill?
A. There is a deposit on each original bottle you get. When you exchange the
empty bottle for a full bottle, you are not charged another deposit.
Q. Why are there 2 equipment charges on my first bill?
A. If service begins after the first of the month, your first bill includes
a pro-rated charge amount for the current month of service. The other charge
is for the following month. All equipment charges are billed one month in
advance. You will only see one equipment charge on your bill from now on.
Q. When is my payment due?
A. Payments are due by the 15th of each month. Check out our payment options
for the best solution for you.
Q. I am paying a monthly equipment charge. When will I own my
equipment?
A. If you are paying a monthly equipment change that means you are renting
the equipment in your home or business. The advantage of renting equipment
is that if anything ever goes wrong with it, we will fix or replace it at no
cost to you. We do sell new equipment. Please contact us for a solution that
will fit your needs.
Q. Is it possible to pre-pay my bill?
A. Yes! You can pre-pay for your equipment rental. If you have water delivered,
you will still receive a monthly bill for the water that was delivered the
previous month.
Q. When is my water delivered?
A. When you first set up for our water delivery service, you will be placed
on a every 4 week delivery. If your needs increase, just contact us and we
can adjust your frequency. Our goal is to leave you enough water so that
you do not run out between deliveries. You will receive a calendar in the
mail showing the specific days we will be delivering water to your home or
office. Your monthly statement will also list your next delivery date(s).
If you ever need a delivery outside of your regular schedule, just let us
know!
Q. How much water will I use?
A. It really depends on what you are using the water for. Some people use it
for cooking and making coffee as well as for drinking. Some people use it
just for drinking. It also depends on how many people you have in your home
or office.
Q. What if I am not going to be home when you deliver?
A. Simply leave your empty bottles in a pre-arranged location. We’ll
replace them with full bottles. Just contact our office with your special delivery
instructions.
Q. What if I don’t need water on delivery day, is there
a minimum order?
A. You do not have to purchase water each delivery if you are on a regular
delivery route. If you do not need any water on route day, simply leave a note
to any empty bottles you leave out for us to pick up. Please contact us if
you are on a “call-in” basis for any minimum delivery requirements.
Q. What if I run out of water?
A. Unplug your cooler if it is empty. The compressor will continue to run and
will cause damage to the cooler. Simply call us and we will do whatever we
can to get more great Culligan water out to you, as fast as we can. We recommend
that you keep a few extra bottles of water on hand during the summer months.
Q. What do I do with my empty bottles?
A. Don’t throw them away! We’ll pick up your empties when we deliver
your new full bottles. Remember, there is a $7.00 deposit on these bottles
and they must be returned to us in good condition. We cannot accept bottles
that were used for anything other than water.
Q. How should I store the water?
A. Bottled water should be stored in a room temperature environment. Keep away
from direct sunlight. Store away from household cleaning products, gasoline,
paint thinners and toxic materials. If the above are followed, the shelf
life of bottled water is about 2 years.
Q. Where does your water come from?
A. It starts off as Municipal Water that we purify by Reverse Osmosis. Our
filtration process takes out 90-99% of everything in the water including
sodium and chlorine. Our water is also free of nitrates. We then use Ozonation
to sterilize our water. Ozone kills microorganisms and viruses by the process
of oxidation.
Q. What if the bottle you delivered to me leaks?
A. It’s unlikely you’ll ever have this problem, but if you do,
take the bottle outside and call us. If the leak appears to be the cooler,
remove the bottle from the cooler and call us. In most cases, leaks are caused
by the bottles and not the cooler. If you know you have a bottle that leaks,
do not put it on your cooler.
Q. What if my cooler stops working?
A. If your cooler stops working, check to make sure there is power to the unit.
If it still isn’t working, give us a call. Please try to provide as
much information as possible about the problem you are having. We may be
able to help you fix it over the phone. If not, we will respond as soon as
possible to correct the problem.
Q. How do I sign up my friends and family to have Culligan
Water?
A. You can either give us a call with their name and number or have them give
us a call. Remember to tell us that you referred them. If they sign up, you
will receive $10.00 credit applied to your account for each person you refer!
Q. Can I purchase cups from you?
A. Yes we sell cups! Simply tell your Culligan Man, or give us a call. Cups
can be delivered when we bring you water.
