What is the best water filtration system?
We have horrible lime and calcium build up – very hard water. We want an entire water softner/filtration system.
Bottled water or attachments for the sink is not what I am talking about, it needs to be for laundry, showers, drinking, cooking, etc.
Please help!

What you’re looking for is termed a "whole-house filtration system." The biggest name in that industry, at least in the U.S., is Culligan ("Hey, Culligan man!"). There is some minor maintenance and replenishment involved with those systems but it’s worth it.
It makes a big difference when you have hard water: clothes get cleaner with less soap, plumbing works better, etc.
Rain Soft is the best whole-house water conditioning system available and has the guarantee to back it up.. It has a lifetime warranty, for as long as the original purchaser lives, not how long you own the house. If you move, you can take it with you. A Culligan system has to be recharged after 5-6 years and will easily run more than the cost of a Rain Soft system in normal scheduled maintenance.
A good water softner can get rid of the hard water but to install additional filters as well as this may dramatically affect your water pressure meaning less pressure.
For bacteria an ultra violet system is best.
