Suitable purification method needed for high TDS and hardness of water : Test results attached

I did a recent test of my borewell water which returned the following results:

Total dissolved solids = 2050 mg/ltr
Total hardness = 920 mg/ltr
Chlorides = 380 mg/ltr
Ph = 7.15

From what I have been reading, it looks like this water will cause damage to my pipes, heaters etc. and also may not be very safe for drinking?

Can I get a water softener system installed for general use and have a small RO unit for drinking water purposes? Will this solve my concerns?

Thanks in advance for your answer.
