The electric water heater and the wood boiler were both new to us last year. After shutting down the electric tank and using the boiler's coil all winter and most of the spring we had a foul odor from the electric heater once it was put back in use that required us to totally drain the tank and refill.
Are there any pros or cons to draining the electric tank once it's taken out of commission for this winter or should it maintain water until next spring for another draining?
