That probably is normal. Mine will make about 2 turns and starts to get snug. make sure you clean threads well with wire brush. wrap Teflon tape around threads on the anode rod about 2 or 3 times (put the tape on clock wise). hand start the anode in. after about 2 turns it will began to tighten. tighten about 1/3 to 1/2 more turn with wrench. Do Not over tighten. turn on water and check for leaks. you'll be ok. just don't over tighten.

The pod is not a year old yet.
QUESTION-----The anode rod from the hot water tank is what I am having a problem with. I have it threaded half way in but then it gets VERY hard to screw any further. Have tryed many times. I don't want to force it. Any clue to what is wrong??? I don't want to go to the dealer yet. Any help is always greatl  |
