Q.5 Water Is Discolored Or Smelly?

The heater has a magnesium anode rod that gradually deteriorates during use. It functions by absorbing minerals from the water, thus defending the element. The rate at which it deteriorates depends on quality of the water. If the anode rod of a heater is consumed, the water may become smelly or discolored. It is crucial to examine and change the anode when it is used up to avoid any harm to the element or the tank.
