This is very true - good point. Might as well do that when the tank is drained.

Checked my water heater anode for the first time yesterday. And I only had to make one trip to lowes.

How did it look? Our camp trailer ones only last 2 years, I've never bothered to check the one in my house!

It was surprisingly good. of the 3 or so feet of it, only about 4 inches really looked chewed up at all near the top.

My water heater is brand new, and I plan to check in 3 years (or 5?)

I'm trying to drain the sediment yearly and it doesn't hurt to check the anode when I do that.
