Google led me to discover this was caused by an anaerobic bacteria that lives in our hot water tank, and feeds on the magnesium or aluminum anode. So I purchased this Al/Zn anode. After installing it (removing the old one, which had to have been there for 20 years, was difficult. Used a 24" breaker bar, with a 3 foot "plumber's cheater", thought I was going to tear the threads out of the tank) and flushing out all the iron sediments from the tank, and the smell disappeared.We're on a well, so no chlorine in our water. If you are on city water, you have rotten egg smells from your hot water and a long way from the treatment plant, this may be a solution for you. Chlorine does kill the bacteria, and most people on municipal water will never have this problem.3 months later, we're still enjoying the water, with no odor at all. ### ⭐⭐ Was hopeful but now am growing more disappointed *by C***P on Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2016* I moved into a house that had a 20 yr old water heater with an original anode rod. There was an egg smell that was overwhelming when we used hot water in the house and nonexistent with cold water. I was going to buy this and put in that old heater. Instead I bought a new water heater and then bought this aluminum zinc rod and put it in the new one. I have had this installed in the new heater now for a little over three weeks. At first the smell was completely gone. Now it is starting to come back.The photo for this product shows a blue rod. The rod I received was silver. But the part number on it when I searched the internet came up as aluminum zinc alloy so I thought it was correct and would fix the problem. Now I am hoping the smell does not continue to worsen. If it does then I will be removing the rod and cutting it so I only have the plug. I feel like I should have saved the 65 dollars and done that in the first place. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome *by G***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2020* I tried treating my well. No help. Then someone pointed me to this. Worked great. Been in the 4 years. Going strong. Certain bacteria flatulence eating the standard magnesium rod smells like sulphur. Change the bacteria's diet to aluminum and you change the smell of their gas. I am no chemist sooo don't comment back on how wrong I am. I just know this is how gases are formed in landfills. Things biodegrade by bacteria eating it. No bacteria and not breakdown of material.
