Hi all. My 2005 Magna has a major mineral problem in the hot water heater and probably the agua hot tank. Most of the water faucets have been plugged to a trickle.
We are at Oregon Motor Coach where they found the problem in the atwood hot water tank. Loaded the the white mineral stuff. They are using vinegar to break up the deposits. I am the second one here that has the same problem. I will be using a water softener after this.

Donald,

I use a hose attachment from any RV store to flush my Atwood water heater twice a year. There is still a lot of "mineral stuff" each time I flush. I have used a water softener for almost six years and still get the stuff.
