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. Nothing about that changes in Port Austin.

The homeowner does, in almost every case. The utility keeps the main and the meter, and everything from the curb stop up to the house is yours to repair. Ask the water department to mark the curb stop before anyone digs, because a guess costs more than the locate does. Same story in Deckerville.

Close the interior valve feeding the bib, open the tap to drain it, and store the hose. Water trapped by a connected hose is what splits the fitting. If there is no shutoff on that branch, a plumber can tell you whether the bib is frost-free and whether the pitch drains properly. That answer does not change between here and Kinde.

Pressure, most likely. A regulator that has quit holding sends full street pressure through the house, and the fill valve is the weakest link so it fails first. Replacing the part again without checking the pressure just resets the clock. Homes in Bad Axe sit on the same water.
