Going to try to get into a bit more hot water with this - recommend 40/50 gal gas water heater

Biggest problem with Bradford White is accessing the anode, which should be at least looked at annually.

On a BW, you have to remove the water line to remove the anode. Other brands have it in it's own location making it much easier.

Not that anyone ever does it...

I've been told by a few in the trades not to bother on a residential. I've had my DIY Rheem/GE installed since 2003 and was concerned about the anode and asked around.

Personally if your able bodied I think it?s a great time to do it yourself. Buy a small map gas torch some solder and a price of copper with some fittings and learn to soft solder. I teach monkeys ( apprentices) how to solder in less than 10 mins. ...

Well, there you go
