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 sixty years of commitment to customer satisfaction
that Culligan is providing this Performance Data Sheet to its customers.
IMPORTANT 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.

The Culligan Medallist Series Water Softeners are tested and certified by WQA and UL against NSF/ANSI
Standard 44 for the effective reduction of calcium and magnesium (hardness).
This softener is efficiency rated, it has a Demand Initiated Regeneration (D.I.R.) feature which complies with spe-
cific performance specifications intended to minimize the amount of regenerant brine and water used in their op-
eration. The softener has a rated salt efficiency of not less than 3350 grains of total hardness exchange per
pound of salt used (based on NaCl equivalency), and shall not deliver more salt than its listed rating. The effi-
ciency is measured by a laboratory test described in NSF/ANSI Standard 44. This test represents the maximum
possible efficiency that the system can achieve. Operational efficiency is the actual efficiency achieved after the
system has been installed. Operational efficiency 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 for more specific prod-
uct 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 sub-
stances 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 7.0 lb. salt dosage.
