Otherwise you can try this.
Turn off the water to the heater. Drain the heater. Refill the heater.
Repeat a few times. And from here on at least once or twice per year
(even with a brand new heater).
And before you do that (in case you didn't know this already), if it's
an electric water heater, TURN OFF the electric power to the heater or
you'll burn out an element or melt a plastic dip tube.
This guy Gilbert shouldn't have asumed you knew that allready.
