To keep yours running and in good condition, you'll need to flush the tank and examine the anode rod each year..

To flush your tank, initially shut off the electricity and water to the heater. Then wait a number of hours for it to cool. When you can touch the tank and is no longer warm, use a garden tube and pump to drain it. The water coming from the tank should be poured into a bucket so you can see exactly what color it is. Dark water suggests there is a great deal of mineral buildup. This can corrode your tank and trigger problems with the temperature level.
