My water heater is one of those that had the defective dip tube. I havnt
pulled the old one out but I have the symptoms of a defective tube. I
looked on line and cant find a place that sells dip tubes. Any ideas where
to buy them? Are they sized to a particular tank model or is it sufficient
to just know its a 50 gallon gas fired heater tank thats xx high and yy
wide with a 3/4 water connection?
Thanks

I don't think you tried very hard...

In addition, any decent plumbing supply business will carry dip tubes
and tell you how to install it. Avoid the borgs.
