As a coffee machine service tech, I view lime formation as job security.

My house insurance policy contains a clause that says that water damage due to a water heater isn't covered if the water heater is more than 10 years old....

A few years ago I helped a guy pull a water-heater out of a house because we couldn't drain it. When we got it outside we discovered it was full of calcium sludge....yeah....

HaHa! I like that!

So I'm not the only one sick of his childish behavior?

When I was a kid, I did not know about water heaters in the house. I thought that if you turned the spigot that had an “H” on it, that the hot water would “flow” from some central location in the middle of town.

Heat water and lime precipitates in my neck of the woods.

I haven’t heard of de-liming a tank but I suppose it’s possible.

[CrazyIvan]

(Using George Carlin delivery) Why is it called a hot water heater? If the water is hot, why heat it? It's actually a cold water heater. When was the last time you drank from the cool water cooler?

[wally_bert]

I heard that tang will break down calcium and lime. Never tried it myself.

[wally_bert]

We went tank less and love it.

You mean it doesn’t? Ruh-roh...

[HiTech RedNeck]

Most of the grunge can be flushed out if drained regularly through the drain spigot, something that a lot of people never bother with. Some lime is good, it patches microscopic holes in the liner.

water heater graphic missing a very important component.The sacrificial anode...very important in heater longevity.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Plumbing, telephone, TV, what’s the difference? :-)

[Smellin Salt]

I did not know that there is a sacrificial anode in the water heater. I’ll be having a look at mine tomorrow. Good post.

In some it is a separate rod, in others it is part of the cold water inlet.
