The Anode Rod on Your IBC Boiler

The anode rod sacrifices itself to prevent corrosion inside indirect water-heater and storage tanks. A depleted rod leads to tank rust and eventual leaks; periodic replacement greatly extends tank life.

On IBC systems — including models such as SL 20-160, VFC 15-150, V-10 — a failing anode rod often shows up as ignition lockout or related symptoms. We diagnose it precisely and install the correct genuine IBC part.
