From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Calcium (pronounced /ˈkælsiəm/, KAL-see-əm) is the chemical element with the symbol Ca and atomic number 20. It has an atomic mass of 40.078 amu. Calcium is a soft gray alkaline earth metal, and is the fifth most abundant element by mass in the Earth's crust. Calcium is also the fifth most abundant dissolved ion in seawater by both molarity and mass, after sodium, chloride, magnesium, and sulfate. Calcium is essential for living organisms, particularly in cell physiology, where movement of the calcium ion Ca into and out of the cytoplasm functions as a signal for many cellular processes. As a major material used in mineralization of bones and shells, calcium is the most abundant metal by mass in many animals. From Wikipedia under the

I recently moved into a 10 year old house. The house set on the market for about 6 months unoccupied until we moved in. We quickly noticed that many of the faucets are really restricted because of calcium deposits. In fact it clogged up the washer machine within a week. It seems the faucets we use on a daily basis has gotten a lot better but the other faucets are nearly not working. Is there anything I can do? Is it just at the faucets and I need to replace them or does it run all the way through all the pipes. Please help I'm running out of water!

If the water is really hard, you may want to consider a water softener. Wow then, this sounds like some tough stuff! Do you see "floaties" in the water when you hold it up to the light? Is this well or municipal water? Have you had a free water test done at a water treatment or well drilling business? what were the results for hardness? Short of ripping out all of the plumbing, the hydrochloric idea might work.
