Water heater odor
DW says that the hot water smells. Plan is to drain it and introduce vinegar by "winterizing" but not bypassing the WH. Q. Good plan? Q. How much vinegar before filling ten gallon tank with water?...

You really don't need to remove the T&P Relief Valve. All you need to do is empty the water heater through the drain plug. Reinsert the drain plug and then use the winterizing connection and pump the required amount of vinegar into the water heater after opening the nearest hot water faucet. Then top off the water heater with water through the winterizing connection to rinse the vinegar out of the line.
