Reduced hot water output or recovery time

Discolored or cloudy hot water

Aging water heaters in La Cañada's mid-century homes often produce rusty or cloudy hot water due to tank corrosion accelerated by hard water minerals. This is particularly common in 1950s-1960s ranch homes throughout the Upper Hastings Ranch area.
