This may not be happening much anymore, but could the chunks actually be
part of your water heater dip tube?

I have somewhat hard water and getting calcium build-up in my water
heater, thus pieces pugging up the sprinkler in the kitchen, etc. I'm
wondering if a softner OR a filter system would help. And, if the
latter, any source/brands that are good?
