What is this? This is about a water filter machine made by Culligan before 2012. The machine may break and shoot out small parts because of pressure inside.

Does this affect me? If you own this older Culligan water filter, you could be at risk. The problem is only with machines made before 2012.

What should I do? Stop using the machine right away. Call or visit the store where you bought it for help. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you feel hurt.
