Anode Rod Part Number?


Recommended Posts

In the water heater manual in the manual for my 2016 LEII it shows a part number for the anode rod for the SW6DE water heater as 231419.  When I search for that number on line all that comes up is Suburban part numbers 233514 & 233516,  do those part numbers from Suburban supersede all older part numbers?

I would call suburban customer service, for most recent updates. As your Ollie is now past 7 year mark.

You listed this Suburban model SW6DE. I did not look it up today, but I recognized this number immediately. Not knowing your hull #, we're both 2016. I bought two of these last fall, going with the name brand: Amazon.com: SUBURBAN MFG Suburban 233514 AnodeRod Magnesium : Automotive

Thank you to everyone who answered.  I finally heard back from Suburban and part numbers 233514 and 233516 (one is an aluminum rod the other is magnesium) supersede all lower numbered parts.  Now I guess the question is which is better aluminum or magnesium or does it really matter? 

I hope this info helps someone in the future.

We use magnesium. Used aluminum once and got a buildup of aluminum hydroxide in the tank. It looks like clear slime and is caused by a reaction between the aluminum rod and certain types of water.
