My dad has a 2018+\- Lochinvar gas water heater on city water with a water softener. When we flush from the bottom we get rust-colored water with what appears like sand in a translucent jell or scum on the sand. We have flushed it a few days in a row and the color is much lighter but still getting scummy sand.
Any ideas on what is causing this and how to prevent this in the future (besides flushing regularly!!!...which was not done).
