Calcium chunks in filters (Washer, shower)
Hello,
I have been having issues with calcium chunks in my filters (especially in my kitchen sink, washer, and main shower). It seems to be only happening in the hot water side. My washer only had chunks in the hot water side and nothing in the cold water side. My parents are saying that I need a new hot water heater. My current heater will be 10 years old this summer, as it is the original water heater. Before I go buy a new hot water heater I want to make sure that this is the root of the issue.
What do you think?
Water heater specs:
40 gallon
Heat source: Natural Gas
Age: 10 years in summer of '06
