Thanks!

for pipes that are partially plugs with calcium/magnesium carbonates, it
will take years for the damage to be undone in those pipes.

the plated out minerals will SLOWLY dissolve into the soft water flowing
across them.

Water quality will improve IMMEDIATELY. You will notice a HUGE
difference in the bath (skin feels SLICK, like the soap has not washed
off), in the laundry (1/4 the detergent needed to get clothes clean)

A softener will not deal with water pressure and water flow issues
caused by carbonate plating, at least not immediately.
