All Surburban RV Hot Water Systems have an anode rod which absorbs all the corrosive action of hot water. It is located on the bottom of the HWS under the main burner, you simply unscrew this to drain the tank of water. If the rod is mostly eaten away, simply replace it with a new one.
The Suburban Anode Rod is made for use in the 4, 5 & 6 Gallon tanks. Please be aware that some imitation anode rods can cause damage to your Suburban HWS.

For those caravans, fifth-wheelers and motorhomes with a Surburban Hot Water System a replacement of the sacrificial anode will be required at some time.
The storage tank in this hot water system is protected by a magnesium or aluminium anode to prolong the life of the tank.
The anode should be checked every 6 months and replaced if below 50% of original diameter.
