We pass our well water through a 1-micron pleated filter and a UV sterilizer, but get a bad odor from the hot water only. When I pulled the anode rod from our 15 month old electric hot water tank, and it was completely covered by a thin coating of a matte, dark brown material. This coating is electrically non-conductive and scrapes off fairly easily. Any thoughts of what this material is, and how to stop it from coating the aluminum anode and killing its protective ability?
