MAGNESIUM ROD (PROBE)
GENERAL
A magnesium rod is a metal rod made
from magnesium. It is used to prevent corrosion, soften water quality,
and extend the lifespan of the equipment. Magnesium is a more chemically
reactive metal than the materials typically used to construct water heaters,
such as steel or iron. When a magnesium rod is placed within the water tank
of a water heater, it becomes the target for corrosion instead of the tank
itself. This sacrificial corrosion process helps to protect the tank from
rust, scale, and deterioration that would otherwise occur due to exposure
to water and the minerals it contains.
