Theres white debris in my faucet aerator. What is it?
It’s possible that your water heater dip tube is failing. The dip tube is a plastic pipe that allows the cold water entering the water heater to flow to the bottom of the tank where the heating process begins. Dip tubes on older hot water heaters tend to disentigrate and show up as small, white plastic pieces in your aerators. My hot water seems to be hotter than normal but doesn’t last very long. More than likely you have an older hot water heater. Over time sediment can build up on the bottom of the tank, which prevents the thermostat from reading the water temperature correctly. You’ll likely need a new water heater.
