Step 2. Turn “OFF” water supply to water heater.

Step 3. Open a near by hot water faucet to relieve tank pressure.

Step 4. Connect hose to drain valve of water heater and route to an open drain. Open drain valve and drain a minimum of 5 gallons of water from the water heater. Close drain valve and disconnect drain hose from water heater.

Step 5. If required, disconnect top plumbing connection from top of water heater.

Step 6. Remove screws holding jacket head to top of water heater and remove jacket head from top of water heater. Note, it may

be necessary to use a screw driver to pry underneathReplace Anode jacket head (see photos at right).

Step 7. Remove insulation from top of water heater to expose collector cover, if necessary. (see bottom of page for approx. anode locations)

Step 8. Remove screws from top (or sides) of collector cover. Note, it may be necessary to chisel away some foam to access screws.

Step 9. Locate and remove anode rods from top of water heater (1-1/16 hex socket).

Step 10. Visually inspect anode rod. Anode rod may show signs of depletion; this is normal. If the anode shows signs of depletion

(approximately 5/8", see photo at right), replacement is recommended. If any of the steel core of the anode is exposed, replacement is recommended.

Step 11. Upon completion of inspection or subsequent replacement, reinstall anode rods into water heater.

Step 12. Check for leaks.

Step 13. Reinstall collector cover & insulation over collector cover, if applicable.

Step 14. Reinstall jacket head.
