After just a couple years the build up from the hard water cakes the electrodes and accumulates in the bottom of the tanks. Time to replace the electrodes and remove the hardened white deposits....
Hopefully, this will help to extend the life of the heaters by a couple extra years....
Anyone else go thru this BS....?

Not sure how you would do this, but my 30 gallon electric is very accessible in my "laundry" room.
I put it in in 2012 and about every 3 months I hook a hose up to it and drain several gallons off the bottom. My water is softened, so it probably isn't even necessary, but I do it anyway.
There's no place else you can put them?
