Why Does My Hot Water Smell Like Eggs?
A rotten egg smell in hot water typically indicates the presence of hydrogen sulfide gas, which can occur due to bacteria in the water heater or from the anode rod used for corrosion protection. To address this issue, consider flushing your water heater and replacing the anode rod with a zinc or aluminum one, which can help reduce odors. If the problem persists, it may be best to consult a professional for further evaluation.
