Wow! Outstanding Info Gary!
Thank you!
I am printing it out for reference!
I have however seen a brand new (less than one year old) commercial electric water heater tank failure using CITY water with a sodium water softner that had BOTH anodes completly gone! nothing left but the wire.
can this be from improper maintenance or regeneration of the sodium softner?
The water heater was replaced by the manufacturer (6 year commercial tank warranty).
Or could there be other causes for rapid anode deterioration such as a flaw in the glass lining?
Thanks!
