Here is a quote from the Rheem water heater manual:

"It is suggested that a few quarts of water be drained from the water heater’s tank every month to clean the tank of these deposits."

I don't follow this instruction, and I seriously doubt that very many people do. I wonder if any of the home watch or management companies offer this service?
