Hello all,

We recently started inspecting our water heater. Never used it since we got the coach, but we will be needing both an element and anode as they are both shot. The tank seems to be in good shape (no rust inside, outside looks pretty good).

Electric element:
Does anybody have a part number for the electric element? I have seen mention of a 220V element here in the forum, but I am not sure what the specs are on the original element and if we should get a 220V or 110V. The element is about 7.5 inches long, it is held on with 4 screws to the tank with a round gasket that mates it to the tank.

Anode:
Does anybody have a part number for this as well? The original one has a 1 inch pipe thread but it is completely deteriorated so I am not sure how long it should be. Plus, what material should it be?

This is it for now. Thank you very much!

Mickey
