Hello everyone, this is my first time to the fourm and after looking around a little you all seem to be very smart and answer good questions.
Now on to my question, I have a 52 gallon State Water heater that is 30 years old. I know it is time for a new one but now I want to see how long it can last for. A problem that just started was when we turn on the shower, or warm to hot water it smells, It smells like metal of some sorts. Cold water is fine, it does not stink and it taste just fine. Does anyone know why this would be? I am guessing it is my water heater but I really don't want to get a new one yet. The hot water still pumps out very hot.
