The anode rod is a sacrificial component that protects your tank from corrosion by attracting rust-causing ions. Over time, the rod degrades and must be swapped to continue protecting the tank. In southern Arizona, hard water and intense heat can accelerate anode rod wear, making replacement a wise preventive step. If you see rusty or metallic-tasting hot water, or if your tank is over three years old, it may be time for a new anode rod. Whether you have a electric water heater, we carry the right anode rods for most major brands. Our licensed technicians begin by disconnecting the water supply and power or gas to the unit. We drain a few gallons from the tank to reduce the water level below the anode rod port. We then unscrew the old anode rod, which may be heavily corroded, and inspect the tank interior for signs of rust. After prepping the port, we install a new anode rod-aluminum or a electric model-and secure it to the manufacturer's specifications. We refill the tank, restore power or gas, and check for leaks around the new rod. The job typically takes one to two hours, depending on access and tank condition. Because we serve San Tan Valley and Queen Creek, Florence, Gilbert, Sacaton, we can often arrange same-day service. You will receive a detailed written estimate before we begin, so you know exactly what to expect. Our work is backed by a service guarantee, and we stand behind every anode rod replacement we perform.
