Current Free Water Heater rod
đź”§ Powered (Current-Free) Anode Rod
A powered anode rod is designed to protect your water heater tank from corrosion without producing a significant stray current in the water. Unlike sacrificial anode rods, this type uses a very low-voltage electric current to prevent rusting and prolong the life of the tank.
Key Benefits:
-
Longer Lifespan: Helps prevent corrosion inside the tank, extending its life. Reddit+2Reddit+2
-
No Sacrifice: Unlike traditional anode rods, it doesn’t “sacrifice” itself by corroding away. Reddit
-
Reduced Maintenance: Needs less frequent replacement compared to traditional rods.
-
Safety: Proper installation is important — if misused, currents or poor wiring can cause issues. geyser.com.bd
Things to Consider:
-
Check compatibility with your water heater.
-
Make sure installation is done with correct grounding.
-
Monitor periodically for wear or corrosion.
If instead you meant a heater rod that draws no current, that might not be technically correct because heater elements by design need current to generate heat.
