O. Smith residential water heaters from corrosion. Made from aluminum, it measures 3\/4 inch in diameter and 33 inches in length, with a hex end connection for standard installation. Sacrificial anode rods corrode preferentially over the tank lining, extending the serviceable life of the water heater. This is a direct factory replacement part, intended for use by licensed plumbers and water heater service technicians performing routine maintenance or anode replacement on residential units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis anode rod is used in residential water heater maintenance applications where the existing anode has been depleted or is due for scheduled replacement. It is specified for select A. O. Smith residential water heater models where manufacturer parts literature calls out part number 100109594. Routine anode inspection and replacement is a standard maintenance task on tank-style water heaters and is critical to tank longevity, particularly in areas with aggressive or softened water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOEM factory replacement part for select A.
