Water heaters in Ocala
City of Ocala water is softened groundwater from the Upper Floridan Aquifer, but mineral scale can still show up in tanks and valves, especially in older equipment.
A typical Ocala home was built around 1984, so many heaters are on a second or third replacement cycle, and a January average low of 45.6°F is still enough that a failed heater in winter is an emergency.
