Pull your hot water rod after every trip?

Okay, wheew. Thanks guys.

I look at mine once a year when I drain the hot water heater. Haven't replaced it yet - still looks good. We don't use the hot water heater all that much. Just as easy to heat some dish washing hot water on the stove. Take our showers in the bath area or standing up in front of sink when out in the woods...

That's too much work. If you want to drain your water heater, flip off any power or gas to it and remove the drain plug. It's a good idea to keep it empty if your not using it.

I do it once a year at the end of the season.
You don't pull the anode out of your residential WH every few weeks, why do it to your RV?
