Superior Flow. Superior Savings. Superior Water for Commercial and Industrial Needs.

The Culligan® Top Mount (CTM) Series filter models use the latest control valve technology to offer superior flow rates and long-lasting performance for commercial and industrial applications. The top-mounted control minimizes the system's footprint and is constructed of a corrosion-resistant, heavy-duty plastic tested in extreme operating conditions to service all types of problem water (high chloramines, heavy iron, etc.). The CTM valve and system also carry certification for testing and passing the highest drinking water standards.

Warranty

Warranty

 N/A Culligan®'s CTM Water Filters are backed by a limited 2-year warranty against defects in material, workmanship and corrosion. In addition, softener tanks are warranted for a period of 5 years. (Culligan® will provide a copy of the warranty upon request.)

Some localities have corrosive water. A softener cannot correct this condition, so its printed warranty disclaims liability for corrosion of plumbing lines, fixtures, or water-using equipment. If you suspect corrosion, your independently operated Culligan® dealer has equipment to help control the problem.

Note

Note

 N/A Backwash flow rates are based on 10 gpm/ft2 (24 m3/hr/m2) using 50ºF (10ºC) water. A different backwash rate may be required depending upon water temperature or the type of carbon used.

Each Family Group includes the following control valve options: Single downflow, Multi-tank downflow.

Operational, maintenance and replacement requirements are essential for this product to perform as advertised. Specifications shown are for single models. Also available in multiple tank configurations. All pressure drop figures are based on new filter media and a water temperature of 60ºF. Depth filters are capable of 10 microns effluent water quality, whereas all other filter types are capable of 40 micron effluent water quality.
