[Shop-talk] anode rods-- was the air saga continues

[Jack Brooks]

Anodes:  Just be sure that your anode is a simple bolt type.  My
Bradford-White anode is integrated into the hot water outlet pipe.  The
manufacturer got me to a mail order supply house that was reasonably priced.

Yeah, as Doug stated, really flush that sucker.  Remove the existing valve
or replace it for the flush.

www.Waterheaterrescue.com was a very informative site.

Your local, non-big box store will have anodes and they will have
thermocouples for your gas fired devices too.
