antadote rod

Do all RV water heaters have a antidote rod ? I'm not able to locate one on my water heater.

Actually the name is anode rod ... Attwood Water heaters have an aluminum tank and usually don't come with an anode rod. Suburban uses a lined steel tank requiring an anode rod.

Before we traded our high country we had Atwood water heater no anode rod in it. I'm sure that's what you have.

Ours has an anode rod. When you remove the drain plug, you find it is the anode rod.
