It is possible, but unlikely, to have so much floating clay to color the water; but flushing the tank a few times would tell.
A boiler would be able to boil water above 100C, a water heater will just heat water, usually below 140F.
Water heater tanks are like light bulbs; many do not reach the warrantee period; it depends upon the water quality and luck in manufacture.
