Corro-Protec’s Limited Warranty

Effective Date: June 1st, 2026 

Corro-Protec (“Company”) warrants to the original purchaser (“Customer”) that the Corro-Protec Powered Anode system (“Product”) is free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use, proper installation, and proper operating conditions for the duration of the applicable Warranty Period, subject to the terms, conditions, exclusions, and limitations set forth in this Limited Warranty. 

This Limited Warranty applies only to the original purchaser and is not transferable. 

1. Warranty Period 

Base Warranty 

The Corro-Protec Powered Anode system, including the anode rod and power supply, carries a five (5) year Limited Warranty from the date of original purchase (“Base Warranty Period”). 

Extended Warranty on the Anode Rod Only 

The Customer may extend the warranty coverage on the anode rod only to twenty (20) years (“Extended Warranty Period”) at no additional cost for eligible Products installed in single-family residences, provided that the Product is registered on the Company’s website at corroprotec.com/warranty within ninety (90) days of purchase. 

The Extended Warranty applies only to the anode rod. It does not apply to the power supply, electronic components, wiring, connectors, water heater, water heater tank, plumbing, fittings, or any other component not expressly covered by this Limited Warranty. 

If the Product is not registered within this period, the Base Warranty Period remains in effect. Failure to register the Product does not affect the Customer’s rights under the Base Warranty Period. 

The Extended Warranty is complimentary and helps the Company validate warranty claims long into the future, even if the original purchase documentation is lost. 

2. Warranty Coverage 

This Limited Warranty covers defects in materials or workmanship in the Corro-Protec Powered Anode system when the Product is properly installed, continuously powered, properly grounded, and used in accordance with the Company’s installation guide and specifications. 

During the Base Warranty Period, this Limited Warranty applies to the Corro-Protec Powered Anode system, including the anode rod and power supply. 

During the Extended Warranty Period, this Limited Warranty applies only to the anode rod and does not apply to the power supply, electronic components, wiring, connectors, water heater, water heater tank, plumbing, fittings, or any component not manufactured by Corro-Protec. 

3. Remedies During the Base Warranty Period 

If a defect in materials or workmanship is confirmed during the first five (5) years from the date of original purchase, the Company may, at its discretion, repair or replace the defective Product or component. 

4. Prorated Extended Warranty Coverage on the Anode Rod Only 

Starting in year six (6), for eligible registered Products only, coverage is limited to a prorated credit applicable toward the repair or replacement of the anode rod only. 

The prorated credit starts at fifty percent (70%) in year six (6) and decreases annually according to the schedule below, to a minimum credit of five percent (5%) in year twenty (20). 

Prorated Coverage Schedule: 

Year 6: 70% 
Year 7: 65% 
Year 8: 60% 
Year 9: 55% 
Year 10: 50% 
Year 11: 45% 
Year 12: 40% 
Year 13: 35% 
Year 14: 30% 
Year 15: 25% 
Year 16: 20% 
Year 17: 15% 
Year 18: 10% 
Year 19: 5% 
Year 20: 5% 

The prorated credit has no cash value, cannot be exchanged for a refund, and applies only toward the repair or replacement of the anode rod, as determined by the Company. 

The prorated credit does not cover the power supply, electronic components, wiring, connectors, labor, removal, reinstallation, diagnostic fees, plumbing work, contractor fees, shipping, taxes, duties, water heater replacement, property damage, water damage, loss of use, or third-party costs. 

Any replacement Product or component provided during the Base Warranty Period will inherit the remainder of the original Product’s Base Warranty Period or ninety (90) days from the service date, whichever is greater. 

Any replacement anode rod provided during the Extended Warranty Period will inherit the remainder of the original anode rod’s Extended Warranty Period or ninety (90) days from the service date, whichever is greater.

6. No Guarantee of Specific Results 

This Limited Warranty does not guarantee any specific result, including odor elimination, scale reduction, stain reduction, energy savings, prevention of leaks, prevention of all corrosion under all conditions, or extension of the water heater’s service life. 

The Product is designed to help protect the inside of the water heater tank when properly installed, continuously powered, properly grounded, and used in compatible water heaters. Protection is limited to the water heater tank and does not extend to plumbing lines, fixtures, appliances, or other components outside the tank. 

7. Warranty Claim Procedure 

To initiate a warranty claim, the Customer must contact the Company during the applicable Warranty Period and provide the following information: 

  • Proof of purchase; 
  • Product serial number; 
  • Warranty registration information, when applicable; 
  • Photos, videos, diagnostic information, or installation information reasonably requested by the Company to evaluate the claim; and 
  • Any other information reasonably required to determine whether the claim is covered by this Limited Warranty. 

The Product or component must be returned only if requested by the Company. Initial shipping costs for returning the Product or component are the Customer’s responsibility. If the warranty claim is confirmed as valid, the Company may pay the shipping costs for returning the repaired or replacement Product or component to the Customer, at the Company’s discretion. 

8. Limitation of Liability 

The Company’s obligation under this Limited Warranty is limited to repair, replacement, or prorated credit as described in this Limited Warranty. 

IN NO EVENT WILL THE COMPANY BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING PROPERTY DAMAGE, WATER DAMAGE, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF TIME, LOST PROFITS, PLUMBING COSTS, CONTRACTOR COSTS, OR THIRD-PARTY COSTS, EVEN IF THE COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. 

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply. 

9. Implied Warranties 

To the extent permitted by applicable law, any implied warranties, including any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, are limited to the duration of the applicable written Warranty Period. 

Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so this limitation may not apply.

This Limited Warranty gives the Customer specific legal rights. The Customer may have other rights, which vary from state to state or province to province. 

This Limited Warranty is in addition to, and does not exclude or limit, any rights the Customer may have under applicable consumer protection laws. 

11. Governing Law 

This Limited Warranty is governed by the laws of the state or province of purchase, except where prohibited by applicable consumer protection laws. 

12. Warranty Registration 

The Extended Warranty on the anode rod only is activated upon registration of the Product on the Company’s website at corroprotec.com/warranty within ninety (90) days of purchase.
