Description
The Rheem-Ruud AP11526T-2 is a genuine OEM replacement anode rod designed to protect your water heater tank from the inside out. Anode rods work through a process called electrolytic action — the sacrificial rod corrodes in place of the steel tank lining, dramatically extending the service life of the water heater. Replacing a depleted anode rod on schedule is one of the most cost-effective maintenance steps an HVAC or plumbing technician can perform.
