Culligan to offer two consumer-friendly payment plans

Water treatment leader Culligan recently announced that it will now offer consumers another convenient alternative payment method -- the Culligan credit card through Conseco -- to complement its existing installment financing program offered through Aqua Finance. With both programs, consumers can receive instant approval and have the option of paying on a monthly basis* when purchasing quality water softeners and state-of-the-art drinking water systems through Culligan's nationwide dealer network.

Larry Holzman, general manager of Culligan's Household Business Division, said, "Consumers purchase Culligan(R) products for a variety of reasons -- among them, Culligan's strong, reliable brand reflects the quality of its products, and the Culligan Man(TM) offers water treatment knowledge, expert equipment installation and after-installation service. And now, consumers have one more reason to choose Culligan -- our consumer-friendly payment plans!"

"These alternative payment options fit nicely with Culligan's corporate strategy," said Mike Reardon, Culligan's president and chief operating officer. "We feel that they not only help distinguish Culligan from the competition, but also emphasize our overall commitment to consumers and our dealers."

Culligan manufactures and distributes bottled water and water treatment products for retail, household, and commercial applications worldwide. A division of USFilter that is owned by global water treatment leader Vivendi S.A., Culligan is among the most widely recognized brand names in the world, having been in business since 1936. Vivendi is a leading provider of commercial, industrial, municipal, and residential water and wastewater treatment products and services.
