Yep, It takes oxygen to make rust. Good dry water doesn't rust anything.

You think? Seems sunk ships rust... I have always known water to have
oxygen in it.

My water tank should last forever, it is always full.

The water heater in the house I grew up in lasted close to 100 years.
It was an indirect heating system where the burner and the coils were
separate from the storage tank. The tank did nothing but store hot
water. I'd bet that tank was not glass lined like a modern hot water
heater, but I really don't know. I haven't gotten more than 10 years out
of a water heater, but like my compressor, I just use it, no maintenance
whatsoever.
