There is a very simple cure for this problem. Pull the plug out to drain your water heater when you store the RV for an extended period of time. After the H2O heater has drained put in a new plug. They cost around $1.00 and a new one is not brittle and will not break.

As full-timers, that does not happen. We use the hot water heater daily with showers, washing clothes, etc., and it has been an awesome 10 gallon appliance. My guess is that the use of the cheaper nylon plug was just a $15 savings over the anode device.
