Good one Firedude.... about the Hot Water Heaters! We had to replace our Atwood right after the Warranty was one month over! DO put a Atwood anode in yours, if you have a Atwood! It says right on the box, the new one came in... "no anode needed" yeah, right! I called Atwood, and they said" if you put a anode rod in it, the Warranty wil be VOID & that they don't need one because they have a special coating on the inside to protect against corrosion on the aluminum tank." Yes, life is a "live and learn" situation and a costly one. Now, I have just replaced our burned out anode rod (after 6 months) and flushed it out..... should be Ok for a while. Hard water areas beware! Happy traveling.
