How the Anode Rod Protects Your Water Heater

Generally made from magnesium or aluminum surrounding a steel core, this rod has a simple yet crucial job; to deliberately corrode and in the process protect the inner lining of the water heater tank from rusting. It truly is the first line of defense, ensuring a longer lifespan for your heater. It performs a self-sacrificing role, corroding before any other metallic element inside the tank does. As time passes, the rod gets thinner and eventually fully deteriorates. The trick to maintaining a healthy water heater for years is to check the anode rod periodically and replace it when necessary. Rods typically last for about 3 to 5 years but it can be shorter or longer depending on the water conditions in your area. It is a good practice to inspect it annually.

Dealing with Water Heater Leaks

No one likes to spot a puddle of water near their water heater; it spells trouble. Leaks can occur from various places. it could be from the tank, the valves, or even due to loose connections. Let’s explore how to deal with leaks:

  • Check the Pressure Relief Valve: Sometimes, leaks can occur from this valve if it becomes defective. It is located on the side or the top of the water heater. If it is leaking, replacing the valve should solve the problem.
  • Inspect the Drain Valve: The drain valve is at the bottom of the water heater and is used to empty the tank. If it is not tightly closed, it can cause leaks. Ensure it is closed properly, and if it continues to leak, it might need to be replaced.
  • Look at the Tank: Over time, water tanks can corrode and develop leaks. Unfortunately, if the tank is leaking, it often means you need a new water heater.

In case of a leak, it is essential to act quickly to prevent water damage to your home and other problems that can arise due to a malfunctioning water heater.

Setting the Right Temperature for Your Water Heater

Most water heaters come preset to a temperature of 140°F, which is higher than necessary for most households. A setting of 120°F is sufficient for most uses and also prevents the risk of scalding. It can save you a decent amount on your energy bill. Before making any adjustments, ensure to turn off the power to the unit for safety and don’t forget to check the temperature using a thermometer after a few hours to ensure it’s where you want it to be. Maintaining a consistent temperature setting is key to not just saving energy but also extending the life of the unit. Frequent changes in the temperature setting can cause the tank to expand and contract, leading to leaks over time.

Our service technician, Chris,  showed up on time was professional and friendly.  I had a leak coming out of the bottom of the wall in the garage.  Chris was able to diagnose the leak quickly and take care of the problem.  He explained every step of the process.  Would highly recommend Speed Plumbing, Inc.

Unfortunately, High Speed plumbing was my 2nd call. The first guy to arrive said the whole toilet... seat and tank needed to be replaced, and it would cost $$$$. I believed it was the flapper valve, so I sent them on their way. Ron,  and his helper Jaime, arrived from High Speed... took a look, told me it's your flapper valve... and it'll cost $$. 10 minutes later they were done and gone. Solid, respectful, and professional!!!

Found a slab leak steaming from my garage near my water heater on a Thursday evening. Chris was on the job by 9:30 am on Friday. He was extremely knowledgeable and professional and took the time to include me in all that was doing. Cesar showed up midway through the job to lend Chris a hand and both gentlemen did FANTASTIC work! I will most definitely be calling them again for any future work I may need! Update: We had a second leak in a different area of the house on Sunday. Made a call and Ron came out to solve that problem efficiently and professionally. Can’t say enough the great work that team does over at High Speed Plumbing. So glad I made that initial call!

Called Juan at night about a gas leak the Gas Co, found that caused the Gas Co to red tag the meter and shut it off. Juan sent Christopher the next morning. He is a great guy with a great attitude and super professional skill. His ethics are high. High Speed I was told is a term used in military(veteran owned and staffed company) that denotes someone who is quick, resourceful and accurate at getting issues dealt with. By that standard Chris is definitely a "high speed" Thank you and may God Bless you and your Company  :-)

Same day service inspection and estimate was provided.  Service was offered same day, but we scheduled it to fit our convenience and they were very accommodating.   New tankless water heater installed and old water tank removed.  Roof venting work performed as well.  No complaints.  Happy to use them in the future.

John, Service Manager was very knowledgeable, professional and a very pleasant gentleman.  He assessed our plumbing issues and recommended that a restoration company come out and access the water damage due to ongoing toilet/piping issue from our upstairs restroom.  It's been running into our kitchen cabinet downstairs.  Luckily, our home insurance guy called while the John was still here.  John was able to give the Adjuster the information needed to have Service Master's come out tonight to assessment the water damage. I'm so grateful that John took the time to explain and show me the issues we were having. . John, you were truly heaven sent.  Your honesty and direction was much appreciated. Thank you.
