Hi am trying to replace anode rod in my hot water heater but I can't find it. I removed three of the available covers and it's not there and it looks like it might be attached to the pressure relief valve.
Any ideas?
Edit: This was installed new by a pro plumber 3 years ago. As part of the recommended maintentance, I was going to replace the anode. I found several online videos and it looked to be a fairly simple project.
After opening all the available "ports" on the top, there is no anode.
I called the company (new owner) and before my phone died, he said something about the anode is connected to the dip tube. :banghead:
Per the documentaion I have, it's supposed to be in the rear port behind the cold water inlet. It's definitely not there or in any other available/unused port.
