Water softeners are an add on and not necessarily needed in the villages. My mom has lived here 20 some years without one. There isn’t calcium build up on faucets, the shower walls are clean and the water heater has only been changed out one time. Beware of salesmen that tell you that you need one. I haven’t met anyone yet who needed one here. In my opinion they are a gimmick and certainly not a necessity.
