What's
Included
|
- a standard aluminum/zinc combination (also known as outlet)
anode rod
(about 48 inches of overhead clearance needed)
- pipe-thread seal tape
- service sticker
- instructions
This replaces
the anode that came with your tank. Fits all brands. Can be cut
to fit for shorter tanks.
|
|
What
Does It Do?
|
- The anode will keep your tank from rusting and breaking, while
reducing or eliminating odor problems because of anaerobic bacteria
found in some water that react with regular magnesium or aluminum
anodes to produce hydrogen sulfide gas and a rotten-egg odor.
- The tape will enable you to remove the anode in future to
check it.
- The sticker will help you remember when you installed it.

Important:
Before You Order
|
|
Are you ordering
the right anode? This anode must replace the one that came with
the tank or the smell won't go away. Make sure you have a combo
rod in your tank and not a hex-head anode.
Nearly all Bradford Whites and some A.O. Smiths employ this configuration.
Also tell us the brand of your heater.
If you
have any doubts about what you're ordering, be sure and e-mail
your questions to us. We want you to order only what you need!
mail@waterheaterrescue.com
This product
will not work in Rheem/Ruud/Richmond/GE water heaters made
in 2005 or later. You'll have no water pressure.
If you have
well water and/or a water softener, consider a powered
anode. The aluminum/zinc anode might not stop the smell. We
don't want you to waste your money.
