General Information continued-
Make sure that you check the rating plate and combination gas control on the
water heater to be certain that the type of gas being supplied corresponds with
the marking on the rating plate and combination gas control.
A sacrificial anode(s) is used to extend tank life. Removal of any anode, except
for inspection and/or replacement, will nullify the warranty. In areas where
water is unusually active, an odor may occur at the hot water faucet due to a
reaction between the sacrificial anode and impurities in the water. If this should
happen, an alternative anode(s) may be purchased from the supplier that
installed this water heater. This will minimize the odor while protecting the tank.
Additionally, the water heater should be flushed with appropriate dissolvers to
eliminate any bacteria.
