RE: It is worth it to have a hot shower and water softener installed for our home because it improved the quality of our life
…a sensible solution under your conditions. A small note for context: standards—and especially the reliability of the supply system—can vary a lot from country to country. In the EU and in Germany, drinking water is strictly regulated (German Drinking Water Ordinance / EU Drinking Water Directive). As I already mentioned, I live in an apartment building—more specifically, the building has 76 rental units. The building was constructed in 1959. A full renovation would be very expensive here in Germany, especially since we “only” have a limescale issue (hard water).
Yes I agree, actually the tap water here is also drinkable but we all prefer to purchase purified water for drinking to be safe since the cost is cheap for the reason that there are many commercial purified water stations around here.
