I learned a few lessons trying to extract the anode rod from the old

great job of twisting the water heater jacket into a simulated
pretzel. I didn't know I was that strong. It might have survived if
it had water inside and I didn't put my foot on the jacket when
applying brute force. Learn by Destroying(tm).

Same method I used, except the heater had 40 gallons of water in it.
It didn't move, but eventually the anode rod cap did.

Good luck and how did we get from LED lighting to water heaters?


The ones I got off ebay (shopping for price) were
dim. But, the ones they used over the church
are really great.
