Water – How to get limescale out of water

If you have well water, you almost certainly have a pressure tank. The well pump runs until the pressure in the tank (and the overall system) is up to a predesignated level, then shuts off. The tank pressure then pushes water through the system until the pressure drops to a lower predetermined level. Then the pump motor kicks in again. This is supposed to maintain a relatively even pressure at the faucets.

If your pressure tank is not functioning (there is an air valve and an internal separator between water and the air in the tank and the water, either of which can cease to work correctly) this can interfere with maintaining satisfactory pressure and can cause the pump motor to run too frequently. There is also a pressure guage/valve/relay setup, usually a short pipe stem off the main water line near the pressure tank. If that pipe or valve get clogegd or optherwise stop working properly, the relay doesn't trip at the right time and the pressure can drop very low (even to zero) before pump kicks in again, raising the pressure.

You need someone to determine whether it is the tank or the pressure guage setup that is not functioning and act accordingly. Tanks are several hundreds of dollars, but a pressure valve fix is much less.

1/2" is a very small "main" - the only truly functional approach would be to upgrade it to a larger main.

If your multiple-water use scenarios are of short duration, you could get some benefit from placing a pressure tank (as used in well pump systems) in the house to provide a few gallons of buffering, but after a few gallons (variable with size of tank and variation in pressure) the stored water runs out and you are back to what the main can supply.
