To re-establish the air pocket that must be in the top of the water heater, shut off cold water supply, open both hot and cold faucets to bleed off all pressure, then open the over-pressure valve lever on the WH and allow water to drain until it stops. Let lever on over-pressure valve snap closed. Turn on cold water supply, and its done. This procedure may have to be performed several times a year, as water naturally absorbs air under pressure.
