This Anode Rod fits Compatible with Atwood water heaters.</p> <p></p> <p>One of the most common killers of RV water heaters is interior corrosion. The water inside your heater contains many destructive properties including heat and harsh minerals that can build up and eat away at the steel sidings in your tank, shortening the life of your heater and leaving you out in the cold with a sopping mess and broken water heater.</p> <p></p> <p>Fortunately, interior corrosion is very preventable. Anode Rods insert into your water heater to help draw those corrosive elements away from the tank and onto the rod itself. </p> <p></p> <p><b>Note:</b> This is non-original aftermarket parts. </p> <p>Any use of the brand name or model designation for this product is made solely for purposes of demonstrating compatibility.</p> <p>The product is not sponsored or endorsed by ,or affiliated with the brands it fit ,including Atwood</p>
