Usually sediment. Mineral layers on the bottom of the tank take up volume and sit between the burner and the water, so the tank holds less and recovers slower. Whether draining still helps depends on how long it has been. It works the same way over in Bellaire.

The tell is usually noise and short part life rather than an outright leak. When pressure climbs, fill valves and washer hoses go first. A gauge on an outside spigot answers the question quickly, and it is worth checking on any older house that has never had the regulator touched. The answer is unchanged in Kingsley.

In an older house the two usual causes are scale narrowing the pipe and a regulator that is no longer holding the right setting. Galvanised supply lines close up from the inside, so the loss is gradual and easy to get used to. A plumber can tell the two apart with a gauge and a look at the pipe material. Homes in Fife Lake sit on the same water.

It depends on what you are trying to solve. A sediment filter helps with grit and protects fixtures, but it does nothing about dissolved minerals, and an undersized one will cost you pressure. Have the water tested first so the equipment matches the actual problem. Age of the house matters more than which side of Mancelona you are on.
