So new issue I've never experienced as a homeowner yet. My hot water has been coming out various shades and complexity of brown and yellow. Only the hot water. Recycling my water softener doesn't seem to matter. Reading online I've read things from Iron, to Rust, to some growth inside the tank needing a chlorine 'shock' to take care of it. I've tried draining it and running the lines as well, it seemed to help a bit but have no idea honestly as I have no way to measure the change.
I'm starting to suspect my hot water tank might go soon. It is ~10 year old now (power vent). Of course I'm not excited about the idea to replace it so I am looking for things to check, or someone to check it, before I replace it.
Anyone have ideas what it might be? And/Or anyone know of a trusted plumber that works in or out of Airdrie?
