        "text": "Generally, anode rods should be inspected every 3-5 years and replaced as needed, but this can vary based on your water quality and usage. In areas with hard water, such as many communities around Las Vegas, anode rods may corrode more quickly and require more frequent inspection or replacement, sometimes every 2-3 years. A professional plumber from CG Plumbing Solutions can assess your specific situation and recommend an appropriate schedule during a routine maintenance visit.",
