Water heaters usually come with a magnesium composite rod, they can react with certain water chemistry and give you a rotten egg smell in your hot water.

That was Alston's suggestion. Mine is get some NOK OUT. Look it up and order it. It takes black mold out of anything and mildew smell. It will not hurt the septic system, it's odorless and no fumes. We were desperate after a big flood in the basement and were trying to find something that would be Peter safe and do the job. This stuff is unbelievable! The woman that is the rep is in La.
