> 3 dayBought this thinking I needed to replace my anode rod because its routine water heater maintenance I see happening all the time but have never done it myself. Bought this rod, it fits my Atwood water heater great! Then I found out that Atwood tanks do not need anode rods, in fact they can be damaging to the tank! Camco is just trying to make a buck. Supposedly it is magnesium so I will take it back out and use it as a firestarter. If it works, its a good deal. So, two stars.

Greater than one weekA must for your RV water heater that requires and Anode Rod. You should remove it at least once a year to be sure there is enough surface on the Anode Rod. Will save replacing the the whole water heater if you fail to do this. A little difficult to remove and reinstall, but again worth the time and effort.

Greater than one weekPerfect replacement for my steel tank suburban water heater. If you have an aluminium tank youll want the zinc anode.

> 3 dayInstall was easy. Plastic cap cracked and blew so water heater was leaking. This went in fine but I put it in as I was winterizing my RV. Will know in the spring of 2016 if it actually works when I fill the water system back up.

> 3 dayA previous owner, or maybe even the factory when it was made, didnt put an anode rod. It was just a plug. The anode rod fit the threads just fine. I will know how well it works after its been in there a long time.

> 3 dayThe tank of an atwood is aluminum. All atwood water heaters have aluminum tank. For that reason, you do not need an anode rod. Anode rods are used in the SUBURBAN brand water heaters. I feel like has misleading advertisement! Do NOT change the plastic plug out for this, because you can very easily strip the threads where it is metal on metal.

> 3 dayPerfect replacement for the anode rod in my surburban water heater in the motor home. However, it will take time to tell if it works as advertised.
