Powered Anode Rod for Water Heater, 20-Year Warranty, Eliminates Rotten Egg/Sulfur Smell within 24 hours, Stops Corrosion and Reduces Limescale, Electrical Anode Rod Made of Titanium

We've been on well water without odor issues for over 50 years. About a year ago, we began getting a sulfur odor from the hot water. Installed an aluminum/zinc anode rod which worked for a couple months but the smell came back. Treated the hot water tank with hydrogen peroxide several times but the smell continued to return. Purchased and installed the Corro-Protec powered anode and the smell was gone the next day. Installation was quite simple, and the instructions were complete and easy to follow. Very happy with this purchase and the effectiveness of the product. And, I really like that the green indicator light tells you that everything's working.

Unbelievable Results!!! We have been fighting water odors, literally, for decades! This product was a one and done fix! I'm ,shocked, amazed, surprised and BEYOND TOTALLY SATISFIED WITH THIS PURCHASE! Probably some of the best money I have spent in my life. Easy install, thoroughly flushed and sanitized water heater prior to install, (used an impact wrench to remove the OEM anode), screwed this powered anode in, routed cord and plugged into nearest outlet over a month ago and, Im happy to say that, ALL ODOR ISSUES HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED! Highly Recommend!

After a random video on yt about water heaters, I decide to check my own. Yeah, I needed a new one. After searching for a regular anode rod, I came upon a video with the corro-protec. I researched more and more about it and I was sold. I didn’t see any real negatives about it and purchased it the same day. Installation was easy, just follow directions and it should be no problem. I think many people don’t know what an anode rod is and located inside the water heater. I didn’t. I know it needs to be flushed once in a while. I did have to change the thermocouple which died in in the middle of winter. The price is high compared to a normal anode rod but in my opinion worth it. The 20 year warranty is awesome. The thought of possibly of not changing it in 20 years is a bonus. I’ve heard customer service is good also. And to keep my water for a bit longer is good too. All in all this device uses simple science to combat corrosion and smell in a water heaters. It is very useful to a home product which is taken for granted and hardly even thought of. This is an excellent product and should be a good replacement for older water heaters and even newer ones without the worry of changing the original one every 5 to 6 years. I’ve heard people needed to change the replacement earlier. Depends on water conditions and where the water comes from I guess. Okay, that’s it. Highly recommended!

Seems pricey, but solved my smelly water overnight. Tank only 1 year old, old anode rod cane out easy with 1-1/16" socket and was in ok shape still, but well water smelled of sulfur badly. This installs with wrench or channel lock pliers

knocked down the sulfurous stink of heated well water by 90% or better. Hopefully will extend the life of my water heater as well. in use 1 year, so far so good. It isn't the cheapest, but it isn't Chinese (Made in Canada), works well, and was an easy install.

Like the idea of this product. I was about 3.5 years in on my current 50 gallon water heater and figured I was approaching the time for a replacement given the mineral content of our town's water. Decided to try Corro-Protec versus another standard anode rod as I did not want to have to revisit this again (and again and maybe even again); this system allegedly will last for 20 years (or more). I don't have the "rotten egg smell" to contend with, so cannot speak to it's effectiveness on that front, but there are other advertised benefits, like reduced sediment accumulation and a reduction in lime scale, which I found appealing despite the lofty price tag. Regarding installation, the process was pretty straightforward. Checkout YouTube for some good step by step guides. One piece of advice would be to use/borrow an impact wrench versus using a socket wrench (and cheater/breaker bar); this made taking the old anode rod out pretty simple. [Do recommend finding a deep socket as there is a metal tab that juts out of the top of the Corro-Protec, which is where the AC adapter hooks on. I had a shallow socket and did end up bending the tab, but was able to reposition it (thankfully) without issue.] My only criticisms at this stage would be the exclusion of teflon tape in the kit (like c'mon... it's $150+ and can't spare a few feet of tape?) and, out of the box, the rod was a bit bent to one side. It was easily repositioned by hand, but the box was in perfect condition, so not sure how this happened to the product. Also, despite the company's highly (self)touted warranty, I'm not overly impressed with the terms. The consumer is still inheriting a lot of risk and needs to have blind faith in the product doing what it's billed to do. If your water heater corrodes and gives out with this anode installed, they will not cover anything. Corro-Protec only covers the anode/power supply. Certainly, if other components of the water heater fail, I wouldn't expect that to be covered, but even if the anode fails in it's primary purpose and the tank does corrode, the company still claims no responsibility. Additionally, full reimbursement is only offered for the first 5 years, not 20. After the 5th year, coverage decreases 5% each year. (e.g. at year 20, you'd only have 25% coverage) Lastly, on a related note, there are anecdotal accounts of water heater manufacturers not honoring their warranties when this unit is installed. This might vary from company to company, but better to assume your tank warranty is void if you use this product. (It better work!) All that aside, I'm still focusing on the positive. I'll be interested to see if I notice any changes to the water heater performance or water quality, but suspect that they will be subtle. Will update this review accordingly. 3/27/24 UPDATE: I definitely noticed a lot less lime scale in the dishwasher almost immediately. This effect has persisted in the 5 weeks since installation. So far, everything still seems to be working well and the bright green light on the power supply is on. Nice product! 8/30/24 UPDATE: All is still well. Scale levels still seem to be reduced. Looks like a good product!

We spent a lot of time and money to get rid of the rotten egg smell at our new cottage. I was so mad and felt so sick everytime the water was used, I had to leave! We had replaced the anode in the new hot water tank, we attached an inline filter, we tried a filter at the kitchen tap, dropped a chlorine tablet into the tank and when that didn't work we tried pouring a bottle of hydrogen peroxide but the smell was still bad! We never thought we'd fix this until we decided on the corro anode! It just worked! No smell!!! NONE! It was easy to put in, it took away the extreme odour that came from the hot water almost immediately. We are ecstatic, over the moon! I almost never went back to the cottage until the Corro-Protec. AMAZING PRODUCT!

This product is an incredible piece of engineering!! My well water is quite nasty with iron being high along with some iron bacteria also some calcium. When I used the standard sacrificial aluminum anode rod that is standard in each hot water tank to protect your heating elements, they get eaten away badly, and had to be replaced every year!! ! Every year I drained my hot water tank to flush and clean, it has been a nightmare !! The anode rode had so much buildup on it, I could barely pull it out of the tank . The worst part is the hours of time it took to remove all the accumulation of chunks of calcium and other alien looking crud in the bottom of the tank. A very tricky job with a shop vacuum and pressure washer !!! Too much to explain, but a very effective method . Albeit, a very labour intensive and time consuming job. I hated the thought of doing it each year because I knew what I was in for. NOT ANYMORE!!! Today was the “acid test” to see if this Corro-Protec electric anode rod stood up to the claims. Well did it stand up !! Nothing in that tank other than a bit of rust residue on the bottom of the tank which was easily washed away. My hot water tank job took me less than an hour after the water had drained out compared to the regular 5-6 hours before!!! This corro-Protec is nothing short of amazing from my experience. If you go through the same BS I do with tough well water, you definitely will not regret buying this product. I’d give the product 10 stars if I could.

Muy especial y deseo que cumpla lo que tiene de garantía. Ya que es difícil que te contesten para registrar tu producto

Installed at my Moms place. She is on a well and the smell of the hot water was repulsive. Installed this and the smell is gone. Works excellent!

L' an passé, à l'achat d'un chauffe-eau neuf d'une marque renommé et bien installé, les couchemares sont apparus. Senteurs d'oeufs pourris, l'anode corrodé au max, ce qui a fait dégradé les éléments chauffant à un tel point qu'ils ont cessé de fonctionner complètement, et beaucoups de rouille qui sortaient des robinets. Alors, pour remédier à tout ces problèmes, j'ai tout remplacé. J'ai fais l'achat de cette merveilleuse anode électrique, et deux bons éléments chauffant. Depuis ce temps, il n'y a plus de mauvaise senteur, n'y de rouille qui sort des robinets. Je suis vraiment satisfait de l'efficacité des ces bons produits. Je les recommande à tous.
