CHANGE THE ANODE ROD, NOT THE WATER HEATER. The anode rod in your water heater is designed to erode instead of your Water Heater's Tank itself. Eventually, the anode rod is completely consumed (usually just before your water heater warranty is up) and the Water Heater Tank begins to erode and ultimately rusts, fails, cracks and leaks. This is why maintaining the anode rod (by checking and or replacing every 2 years) in your water heater ensures the anode rod erodes, and not your water heater!

Product: Aluminum / Zinc Flexible Anode Rod, Hex Plug, 42" - Stops Rotten Egg Smelly Water!
Brand: Blue Lightning Rod
Description: If you have smelly hot water this rod is for you!! The zinc in this anode rod is designed to combat odor that comes from your hot water tank. Often times when well water is used H2S builds up causing a rotten egg smell to come from your hot water. Zinc counteracts this natural process and eliminates unwanted odor. This is the Hex Plug model of the Blue Lightning Aluminum Flexible Anode Rod. This model has a length of 42 inches, a diameter of .75 inches, and 3/4-14 NPT thread size (This sizing is standard for all modern residential water heaters). The rod is broken down into four separate segments. Each segment is Aluminum / Zinc alloy on a steel rod core. The segments are attached via copper or stainless steel couplers and 301 stainless steel braided wire. All of our Anode Rods are lead-free! In most cases, we recommend our Magnesium version of the Blue Lightning Rod but sometimes magnesium can have a hard time standing up to harsher water conditions. Aluminum is best to use when you know your water is hard and you have experienced rapid deterioration of your previous anode rod. Aluminum rods are also best to use if you use a water softener. The Blue Lightning Aluminum/ Zinc Anode Rod should be checked on an annual basis and in most cases replaced every other year depending on the rate of deterioration. ***NOTE*** Always flush and clean your tank before installing the new rod. Doing so will significantly improve the performance of the rod and improves the overall effectiveness of your preventative maintenance. If this rod does not eliminate your odor than you may have more serious issues than an anode rod can remedy. If your water quality issues persist after thoroughly sanitizing your tank and replacing your anode rod we recommended contacting your local plumbing professional.
