Putting the anode rod back in, or a cork or something in the hole might prevent mice or spiders from crawling in. I don't worry about that too much -- I flush the WH pretty thoroughly in the spring, but there's probably no reason not to put the anode back in. TT |

I recommend putting it back in to prevent rust in the threads.

Thanks, that is what I thought. And yes, it took about 1.5 gallons to flush the system. Only bit I missed was to run the pump for a tick after lifting the tube part way out of the antifreeze bottle ;) Paul
