About the Anode Rod
The water heater uses an anode rod to help protect the tank from corrosion. It is often refered to as a sacrificial rod because its purpose is to attract minerals that would normally corrode the tank. In some cases certain chemicals and minerals in the water supply can cause the rod to produce a hydrogen sulfide gas that can make the hot water smell like rotten eggs. Try flushing the tank and changing the anode rod. If you have a magnesium rod you can try using a zinc or aluminum rod instead to get rid of the smell.
