Any thoughts?

Are water softeners a "must have" if you live in TV?

Thanks in advance.

Had a similar debate when we first moved here - saw posts both ways. Decided to wait and see. After about four months and noticing dishes not getting clean; calcium build-up, etc. - we decided to get a system. Water always tasted good, just finally observed that anywhere the water touched, the surface began getting a cloudy appearance.
