Can you tell me what was the part number of the rod thank you

They probably also could use a water treatment system

Come on bro, now you just put listeria monocytogenes into their drinking water lol

Aluminum rods cause the egg smell. Magnesium/Zinc/Aluminum rods are the replacements I believe.

But isn't the magnesium rod to make sure the rot sticks to the magnesium instead of rotting out your tank

It is and was ! It did its job now time to replace to save your water hearing for at least another couple years !

Any Android Rod last longer in a harsh environment isn't doing its job if the Android Rod isn't deteriorating it means the tank itself is deteriorating

Zinc or electronic anodes for the sulfur smell

Take a water sample, send away for testing and depending on their water condition you can size and select conditioning equipment that will treat their well water before it goes to the tank and fixtures. I also understand people are on tight budgets nowadays so this is a quick fix as well

That rod is not gone, looks like shit but it will be just a steel rod when it's gone, Im pretty sure aluminum is standard and magnesium is upgrade

Okay thank you for commenting! On this particular set up the manufacturer installs magnesiums and aluminum is an upgrade:)

Wow that much damage in only two years hard water is tough

Yes some places have extremely hard water here in Ohio..

Also the reason it rotted so easily is the copper is hooker straight to galvanized

Mike, ever tried our powered anode? If not, let me know we will send you one so you can try it!

Interesting, what's the benefit of using that instead of the one made of aluminum?

I’ve installed them on several water heaters in my area. I don’t buy the $75 aluminum rod anymore. The Coro-Protect is a way better option. Only issue is that you need to plug it in to a 120 v outlet

Can you tell me what is the part number or where I can get it thank you

Electronic anode will prevent the smell and outlast any non-magnetic anode.

Cool. Didnt know that.

Where can you find the aluminum rod ?

Thank you for the info

Because with hot water you really have to be careful and make sure that rod is magnesium

Unless you have a well water system then the rod needs to be aluminum or zinc.

Out of curiosity: if you were to have an Rotten egg smell in your Hot Water and do a Flush on your Hot Water heater, to verify the smell. This would be the next step huh? Wow 😮 replacing the Anode rod?

I would like to know which water heater you have and where to buy the replacement rod. They have different installation types.. depending on where you live you may be able to buy it from the box store or a plumbing supply house.. if they don't sell them then you will have to order it online. I hope that helps :)
