SERVICING
Magnesium sacrificial anode(s) is (are) fitted to the top of the storage vessel.
The anode(s) will prevent corrosion of the storage vessel. Anode condition should be
checked annually and replaced if excessive wear is present.
1. Withdraw each anode using a 11/16in AF socket spanner. A new anode measures
21mm diameter.
2. An anode should be replaced, if, at any point along it's length, the diameter is reduced
to half, or less of original. Particular attention should be paid to the ends.
3. If the anode is encrusted with limescale, it should be either wire brushed to reveal
bright metal or replaced.
