The water heater is fairly new so that should be ok. Thanks for all the ideas and will try the CLR.

Whoa, if the water heater is new so is the anode.

Worth checking into.

BTW, bottled water mostly comes from wells. (many here in Michigan)

A spring in fact would be very contaminated.

We are seriously considering having a tankless heated water system put in. Had that before and was happy with it. The neighbors told us the water contains a lot of copper in our area. It is what it is--maybe we'll put in a water conditioner. Meantime I'll try the CLR cleaner. Thanks for the suggestions.
