• INSTALLATION IN HOT WATER OUTLET (USUAL FOR BRADFORD WHITE TANK)
This anode is designed to be installed in the water heater hot water outlet, which is usual for Bradford White tanks and a few A.O. Smith models. 3″ and 5″ nipples are available to facilitate the installation in your water heater, with 3″ being more typical.

• MILITARY-GRADE A420 ALUMINUM
Our anode rod is made of high-grade aluminum-zinc alloy meeting U.S. Mil-A-18001K/W standard specification for superior resistance and protection against corrosion.

• PREVENTS UNPLEASANT SMELL IN HOT WATER
Eliminate the sulfur, rotten egg smell in your hot water caused by hydrogen sulfide and the reaction between the water and the magnesium anode rod, thanks to our high-quality aluminum-zinc anode rod.

• THICK 3/4″ DIAMETER
Our anode rod for hot water heater has a 3/4″ thick diameter, providing more material to sacrifice than the 5/8″ diameter used by some competitors’ products. A solid anode also provides even greater surface area for protection than a flexible anode rod.

• LIFETIME WARRANTY
Benefit from a lifetime warranty on our water heater anode rod, ensuring it protects your water heater from corrosion throughout the anode’s entire lifespan.

• PROUDLY AMERICAN SINCE 1996
Trusted and reliable, our company has been providing top-quality water heater products to American households since 1996.

• REQUIRED 4 FEET CLEARANCE
If you don’t have at least 4 feet above your water heater, we suggest you purchase a Water Connection’s flexible anode rod for easier installation.

• IF YOUR WATER HEATER HAS A DESIGNATED ANODE SLOT
For any water heater with a standard designated anode slot, we suggest buying Water Connection’s hex head anode rod instead of this model. If the anode in the designated anode slot is stuck, purchasing this nipple anode rod for the hot water outlet is a great solution.

• EXTEND YOUR WATER HEATER’S LIFE
The anode rod plays a crucial role in protecting your water heater from corrosion. By replacing it when it is 50% depleted, you can prevent hard water damage, extend your water heater’s lifespan, and save time and money on repairs.

• DIY INSTALLATION
Sacrificial anode rods are intended to be replaced, making the installation process accessible to anyone who possesses a water heater.
