Just to clarify this once and for all. The water that supplies Palmerston North comes mainly from the Turitea Dam but is additionally topped up with water from groundwater bores www.pncc.govt.nz...,
Groundwater bores is where the hardest water comes from.
Furthermore, the pipes from one source are not set for any particular area of Palmy, as they have valves that are open and closed throughout the city, depending on the needs of the city and time of year.
The point here is that the city mostly shares the water from the same source, depending on what particular source, or combination of, is being accessed at the time.
This debate stemmed from a post about how to get rid of limescale. At the end of the day, using acid based cleaning products regularly and properly will keep limescale negligable. Avoid bleach based products (Sodium Hypochlorite) in the wet rooms.
