Close the main shutoff, then kill power to the water heater at the breaker if the tank is involved. Do not wait to find the source. Once the water is off, the damage stops growing and the repair can be looked at properly. Homeowners in Laurium ask this one too.

Hard enough to shorten the life of a water heater and to clog aerators, yes. Scale does not burst a pipe, but it narrows fixtures and it steals capacity from the tank a little at a time. Most people notice it as weaker hot-water flow rather than as a fault. Homes around Calumet are no different.

Watch the sediment more than the birthday. Hard water leaves a mineral bed in the tank that insulates the heat source, so a neglected heater fades early. Rust in the hot water means the tank itself is going. It is no different a few miles over in South Range.
