I would like to get a water softener just so the tiles and toilets are easier to keep clean....there's some hard water residue I have to keep at all the time.
We have a water softener (had to have one 20 years ago, and got hooked). It really does keep everything cleaner, including your skin and hair.

I find that along with using soft water, toweingl the roman shower dry keeps mold at bay. Our shower doesn't seem to dry out very fast. The water can still be in there hours later. I agree with whoever said the fan doesn't' seem strong enough.

I take a nice cold sports bottle of fridge water out with me while running errands. It feels like bath water by the end of the first stop!
