Why is a powered anode rod better than a sacrificial/traditional anode?
A powered anode is a non-sacrificial anode that uses a current rectifier, which sends current in the hot water tank through a titanium anode.
Unlike sacrificial anodes, powered anodes are maintenance-free and designed to last for years.
What is the annual power consumption of a Powered Anode Rod?
Since the amount of current used by the anode will vary from region to region due to the hardness of the water, it is impossible to give an exact answer.
However, on average, anodes will consume 10 kWh per year, or about $1.36 per year.
Is it possible to install the Titanium Anode Rod yourself?
Yes, it is possible to install the titanium anode rod by yourself. With all tools needed, it will take you about 15 minutes to install it.
A complete step-by-step guide is included inside the box for an easy installation.
