To flush your tank, first switch off the electricity and water to the heater. Then wait several hours for it to cool. When you can touch the tank and is not warm, use a garden tube and pump to drain it. The water coming from the tank should be put into a bucket so you can see exactly what color it is. Dark water indicates there is a great deal of mineral buildup. This can rust your tank and trigger problems with the temperature.
