What's going on
Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles are hard on anything with a seal, a joint, or a seam, so this kind of job shows up more here than in milder climates. Call when a repair has already been tried once or twice, when parts are getting hard to find, or when the unit is past the age where repair still makes sense.
How it gets fixed
A licensed partner technician handles the water heater anode rod replacement itself -- diagnosing the issue on-site, walking you through what's wrong in plain terms, and getting it resolved in as few visits as possible. Swapping this out isn't a weekend project for most homeowners -- improper installation is one of the most common causes of early failure and voided warranties.
