So I subscribed to this thread: https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/4332224#Post4332224
Instead of me hijacking the thread, should better ask my questions here.
So I have this Ruud water heater from 2004, so far working like a champ.
I am curious if I should replace the Anode rod?
We have public 'treated' water and I drained the water heater like 4 years ago. Since then, no maintenance and never drained it because read that it's not worth it.
I want it to last for a bit, because it's a big one(75 gal) and also it's expensive.
Should I be replacing anode rod? Anything else I can do as a maintenance item on it? So far, have replaced TPRV and check it regularly too. I can see on the top, it has 4 holes, which hole would have access to the anode rod? I have contacted ruud, anyway I can get a user manual. Tried google, but no luck.
Thanks for the help.
