If you're looking to soften your water, you need a water softening system which can be used in conjunction with a whole home filtration system or stand alone.

Adding a water softening system is known to extend the life of appliances especially with how terrible Cambridge water is for appliance and faucets. I remember a plumber on here saying cambridge water gives him job security/keeps him busy. you'll also find similar anecdotes search this sub.

I don't know what you budget is but a whole home system professionally installed will cost thousands.

Yep, I'm expecting it to be a big investment. Which is why I'd love to hear what has worked / hasn't worked for others in Cambridge before taking the plunge. Specific brands to consider or avoid, from folks with first hand experience, would be great.
