Rotten egg smell for water heater
A friend picked up a used motor home that has a few issues. Most of them we took care of, but what do you do about the rotten egg smell water from the water heater

The smell is from not being used. It has nothing to do with the anode which is there to control electrolysis. Lots of State Parks we frequent have their own water system, most just well water non chlorinated. Although we make it a point to camp every other week, we sometimes have to miss a trip and the extra 2 weeks, we sometimes get the smell. If your friend uses the coach regular, then the smell will go away. In any event, just flush the tank with clean water a few times and the smell will go away.
