: What you describe is classic for failure of the plastic dip tube in the water heater. There was a big class-action settlement over this issue. Affected the majority of water heaters manufactured approximately from 1993 to 1997 ( dates vary by Brand ) Do a google search on Dip Tube and you will get specific info. If this is the problem, the fix is to replace the dip tube ( easy) and flush the system. Unfortunately, you may also have to replace cartridges in faucets if they cannot be cleaned. |
