I'm in the enviable process of replacing my head hoses due to calcification

small some of the 1.5" hoses had become. Some were easily down to 1/2".

Anyhow, I was talking to a friend of mine who has their head plumbed with
fresh water and he was claiming that his hoses don't calcify. Can anyone
vouch for this?

For what it's worth: in major regions of Europe (where air conditioning
against the heat is not the problem) they use circulating heated water
radiators in each room. They find that calcification is not a major
issue, if the closed water system does not leak and so need make up
water in hard water areas.
