Most of us don't think much about our water heaters, especially with most of the water heaters in our area being in the attic. We expect hot water when we turn on the faucet, and that's usually what we get. A sacrificial anode rod is about 3/4 in diameter, usually made of magnesium or aluminum formed around a steel wire core. Its purpose is to protect a less than perfect glass-lined steel water heater tank from corrosion. Since the anode is more reactive to the water chemistry it will corrode away faster than the steel tank.
Are you looking for water heater installation and repair in the Houston area? Water heaters are essential for homes and commercial buildings as they provide the hot water required to complete everyday tasks. Water heaters accept a clean water source and heat the water to a temperature that is usually considered hot. In most installations, the temperature of the hot water heater can be adjusted. This feature is important because people have different needs for hot water. For instance, there are water heaters that provide hot water to laboratories, and in homes hot water is used for showering, doing laundry, and washing dishes.
Tankless gas heaters heat up water instantly and have the hot water to your application in a few seconds. An advanced electronic control system ensures an endless hot water supply without temperature fluctuations. Highly efficient, (over 83%), these units can save up to 50% per month in gas water heating bills. Tankless gas heaters are designed and manufactured to allow the setting of the hot water temperature and heating intensity. This control saves fuel and water heating costs, which saves the user money.
Our standard tank type water heater comes with a manufacturer's 6 year tank and parts warranty (no labor after the first year).
