Standard Hex-Head Aluminum/Zinc Anode for Smelly Water

Sales to Alaska and Hawaii

 
  Overview and closeup of standard hex-head aluminum/zinc anode rod  
 
What's Included
  • a .75-inch-diameter, standard aluminum/zinc hex-head anode rod (about 44 inches of overhead clearance needed)
  • pipe-thread seal tape
  • service sticker
  • instructions

This replaces the anode that came with your tank. Fits all brands. This anode is 44 inches long, but can be cut with hacksaw, Sawzall or cutting wheel to fit shorter tanks.

What Does It Do?
  • The anode will keep your tank from rusting and breaking, while reducing or eliminating odor problems because of anaerobic bacteria found in some water that react with regular magnesium or aluminum anodes to produce hydrogen sulfide gas and a rotten-egg odor.
  • The tape will enable you to remove the anode in future to check it.
  • The sticker will help you remember when you installed it.
Tools Needed
Socket wrench and 1 1/16-inch socket, or impact wrench. For further details, check out Know-How on our sister site.

Ordering Details

The products offered here are designed to make water heaters last longer, or solve specific problems. Installation is potentially do-it-yourself, but if you have the least doubt about your abilities, we suggest that you obtain expert help.

Prices include Priority Mail shipping to Alaska and Hawaii. Allow a few days for shipping, but we usually ship same day. If you are in Canada, go here; if in the continental United States, here.

Important: Before You Order

Are you ordering the right anode? This anode must replace the one that came with the tank or the smell won't go away. Make sure you have a hex-head anode rod in your tank and not a combo anode.

If you soften your water, you may want to consider a power anode, as sometimes aluminum/zinc anodes fail to solve the odor problem.

If you have any doubts about what you're ordering, be sure and e-mail your questions to us. We want you to order only what you need!
