Pride Plumbing came out and provided price quotes to 1) replace an A.O. Smith hot water heater's anode rod; and 2) replace the water heater with a new 40-gallon electric Rheem model (this would include removing and disposing of the old water heater; installing the new water heater, new ball water shut-off valves, new PEX and stainless steel water supply lines to the water heater's water connections, a new brass drain valve, connecting the unit’s electrical connections, ensuring that the unit was properly vented, and setting it to its appropriate operating temperature).
