anode rod
We bought an anode rob for our hot water heater. The new rod doesn't want to thread in. Do all anode rods have the same threads?

YES all anode rods for Suburban WHs are 3/4" NPT threads (pipe thread.....tapered)
and 9" or 9 1/2" long. (Aftermarket Anode Rods sold for Atwood are 1/2" dia. and NOT needed)
Are the tank threads clean...free of burrs?
Cheap easy thread chaser....3/4" nipple. Screw it in using back/forth motion to chase threads/clean them up
