My hot water heater occasionally (2 x per year) eliminates a black inky/soot substance into our sink. The water heater is a Reliance Gold with a 10 yr. warranty

Not too much information to go on. Gas or electric? City water or pump? Is this stuff oily? Does it smell? Let me have all the details that you can. Regards, TomQuote:
