How often should the anode in my Oventrop HM water cylinder be replaced and how do I do it?

[EllaAnn]

The Oventrop HM Monovalent Potable Water Storage Cylinder's anode typically lasts between 2 to 3 years. It's time to replace it when the anode's diameter is reduced to about one-third of its original size. Here's how to replace the anode: First, loosen the external coupling of the anode on the water cylinder. Then, remove the old anode. Next, install the new anode. Finally, tighten the coupling to secure the new anode. When disposing of the old anode, follow local regulations. Avoid disposing of it with regular household waste to prevent environmental harm. Consider recycling the components where feasible.
