My home is only 4 years old in
Mountain's Edge. I started noticing that there was a yellow tinge to my bathwater a few weeks ago. It got progressively worse and especially when I was gone for a few days and the hot water was not used I would come home and it would be even worse. I could not figure out what the problem was I thought it may be my water softener but after regenerating adding new salt and doing a few tricks it still continued. After returning this time It was worse I immediately called the Plumbing Kings after finding them on Yelp. Tyler responded right on time was very courteous and started by checking everything possible. He concluded it had to be the water heater however since it was only 4 years old and put in by the builder there may have been something else going on with the water heater beside deterioration in side of it. After draining it completely in which he did see a little bit of discolored water come out he decided to take out the anode rod inside the tank ...below I have shared a picture of what it looked like and what it is supposed to look like... It is unbelievable how deteriorated it was after only 4 years! He recommended to possibly change it every 2 and a 1/2 years. He replaced it with a new one as seen in this picture refilled the tank and came back in and tested the water pressure etc. So far today the water looks very clear and it did appear to solve the problem. Thank you to Tyler for finding a solution and I definitely will contact the Plumbing Kings if in the future I have any other issues.
