Why Paphos homes get this: Paphos's hard water (high calcium carbonate content) causes accelerated limescale buildup in water heaters, kettles, and immersion-heater systems. Solar hot water systems on Cypriot rooftops add an extra failure surface — heat exchanger coils and circulation pumps are common failure points in summer when demand peaks. Cyprus regulates plumbers through the Ministry of Energy's licensing system (Α/Β/Γ class).
