Neither the water heater nor the softener has had anything done to it in 11 years other than me adding salt to the water softener salt storage container. We have hard water.

4) Do not use fabric softener. Do use a scoop of oxi-clean in the wash and white vinegar in the rinse. Fabric softener will only mask the smell, if any remains. The next time your towels get wet (ie: when you dry off), theyâll smell icky again. Use a full scoop of Oxi-Clean in the initial wash and use 1/2-1 cup of white vinegar in the rinse. You can put the vinegar straight into your fabric softener dispenser or into a Downy Ball. 5) Dry in direct sunlight if possible. There is nothing like fresh air and hot sunshine to help get rid of towel stench.
