It's kind of a bore well for housing community. They are planning to switch to city's water which is much better but it's kind of slow process. There's also a castor oil mill nearby, could it be polluting the soil?

Haha it's gonna get even more hard. My pipes are gonna be full of sediments.

Thanks for the advice. What do you think of something like this. I'm not sure if it would work or not.

Thanks. I've looked into softeners but they are a bit costly where I live and I'm not planning on living here more than a year or two. So looking for sort of short term solution.
