We were having an unpleasant odor from our well water after it passed through our water heater. After some research by my dad, we decided to give Corro-Protec a try. I wanted to document the install and our experience with the product to show people that its not a daunting DIY project.
Description of job -
Turn gas and water off to the water heater, release pressure from TP valve on heater, Remove old anode, install CORRO-PROTEC with Teflon tape or other thread sealer on the threads to prevent leaks, remove screw from cap of water heater and sand away any paint or coating so a good ground can be made, install screw back in hole with ground ring connector on electrical connection, plug spade connector into CORRO-PROTEC, shut TP valve, open water valves on heater, check for leaks, plug device into outlet, Re-light water heater.
Tools used -
Large ratchet or breaker bar, deep sockets 1 1/16” for removing old anode, 1 3/16” installing CORRO-PROTEC, Teflon tape or thread sealant, screwdriver for removing screw for ground, rough sandpaper for removing paint for ground.
Pro tip -
Take your time, breathe, and if you’re getting frustrated take a break.
