Do you know how elongate the life span of a hot water tank?
Check on the anode rod.
What the heck is an anode rod?
It’s inside your hot water tank and is sacrificed instead of the tank itself.
Once the anode is shot that’s when the water starts to eat the tank.
Rheem recommends inspecting the anode once a year and has specific instructions on how to know when it needs to be replaced.
Here are the resources I mention
