Culligan's free in-home water test primarily checks for basic aesthetic and mineral indicators, including water hardness (calcium and magnesium), total dissolved solids (TDS), chlorine levels, pH and sometimes iron or sulfur. Complex or hidden contaminants (like lead, arsenic or bacteria) usually require paid lab testing rather than the free basic check.

For advanced and detailed analysis, Culligan offers the Comprehensive Water Lab Test Kit and certified laboratory services starting around $79.95. While their standard in-home test checks basic levels like hardness and chlorine, certified lab tests look for harder-to-identify or hidden contaminants.
