Oh I bet...playing Scrabble and only using words from the periodic table of elements has got to be real enticing.

Clean it one more time. If it persist...replace it. If you moved it upstairs yourself you can easily install a new one. All that sediment that was in the bottom of the tank probably got distributed into every nook and cranny when you moved it or there is still a lot of it inside. There are other parts of a water heater that wear out, too. I don't know the service life...depends on brand, materials. I think prices start at $500 and go up depending on a few things.

What I actually should have said was a new water heater was installed in the attic....the old one was under 3 feet of sand and sea water

I did call customer support and they told me to try draining the tank and pouring in 1 1/2 to 2 gallons of apple cider vinegar in and let sit for 8 hours if there is any gunk it will break it up and then flush...she also said it is nothing dangerous .
