Where is The Anode Rod on Bradford White Water Heater?
Bradford White Water Heater Have Integrated Anode Rod
The anode rod in your Bradford White water heater is located at the hot water outlet of your tank. Unfortunately, it is not easily accessible. You must remove the hot water outlet to access it. Some newer Bradford White models have an anode rod which is not located in the hot water outlet, but in a dedicated port for this anode.
If you don’t want to have to check your anode in your Bradford White water heater every year or if you are having some sulfur smell in your hot water, you can install a Corro-Protec powered anode. This powered anode rod stop corrosion, stop the sulfur smell, do not require any maintenance, and is guaranteed for 20 years.
Had a new 40 gallon installed with new geo unit. Hot water smells like rotten egg! Need to get the rod out. How can this be done?
Hello Steven, please visit ; https://www.corroprotec.com/anode-rod-replacement/
Who guarantees an anode rod for 20years and where can I find this document?
We do, please visit https://www.corroprotec.com/warranty/
It’s a useless warranty since it doesn’t cover damage to your water heater that this product claims to protect, so it’s the equivalent of snake oil for “peace of mind.”
Better off maintaining your water heater to include regular replacement of the sacrificial anode.
Chris, It is impossible to guarantee something that we did not manufacture (water heater tank). You can go read online about impressed current anode, they are well know and reliable.
How long is the anode rod?
Our Corro-Protec anode rod is 12 inches long. The original magnesium sacrificial anode installed by Bradford White when the tank is brand new is longer than that.
Bought a house that has two Bradford-White gas water heaters. I bought 2 Corroprotect units but now find that the anode rods are connected through the hot water inlet. Are the Corroprotect units compatible with Bradford- White water heaters with this configuration?
Yes, you need to order the Corro-Protec for Bradford White water heater, it will come with all fittings needed to install it in the hot water outlet.
