I've got a 50 gal Whirlpool electric water heater that has been running for 10 years pretty much untouched on city water with no softener. The warranty expired 4 years ago which means the stock anode is probably used up.
Is it even worth it to replace the anode at this point? My city water is quite good, however.. I get very little mineral build up on shower heads and faucets.
I'm reading horror stories about removing the rod and I'm wondering if it's even something I want to mess with.
