Is anyone drinking this water?
When is the last time it got tested?
You ought to do a send away test. It’s about $200 bucks on Amazon.

Check to see if your local government does this instead.

If it did, the heater wouldn’t look like this.

Depending on the state, some agencies will test drinking water samples for a small fee that is much less than $200. In Michigan, the department of health did it for me. This is likely hard water. And if it’s from a well, it should be tested every so often anyways.

I’m presuming it’s well water because city water wouldn’t do that unless there was a major, widespread problem.
$200 is for the full array of tests. VOCs, heavy metals, bacteria. Good to get the full testing done at least once.
