Sir –  I have a smelly water heater.  It is in a vacation home we use several times a year.  I have tried changing the anode rod and we even replaced the water heater at a few years ago, but every time we go there, the hot water smells horrible, like rotten-eggs or sulfur gas.  The well water is generally good otherwise, we have no odors or staining, except from the hot water!  Help!
