Water Heater Anode Rod Aluminum vs Magnesium Gui
An anode rod helps prevent corrosion of a water tank and its elements and is often referred to as the “sacrificial anode” by experts. Tank style water heaters come under a lot of pressure from the acidity of the water and heat produced in the tank which both speed up the process of corrosion in a water tank. An anode rod will corrode before

Extend the Life of Your Water Heater by Replacing t
Chances are your old anode rod will be frozen in place by corrosion. Douse the head with a spray lubricant such as WD-40 and give it a few minutes to penetrate. You may also have to slip a “cheater” pipe over the wrench handle to increase your torque. The weight of the water in the tank is usually enough to keep the entire heater from turning.

Replacing anodes, getting rid of odor | Water Tech Onli
The anodes are screwed into the top of the tank and extend most of the way to the bottom. When the tank is filled with water, an electrolytic reaction begins whereby the small amount of exposed steel is protected and the sacrificial anode is slowly consumed. When there is little anode left, the steel rusts and the water heater eventually breaks.
