Checking and adding coolant rust inhibitors is very important. A couple of years ago Richard and I (mostly Richard) tore into my Aqua Hot. I had a leak in the tank; after removing it we found that the tank was corroded and needed to be replaced.
I contacted Aqua Hot and they informed me that they would only sell a new tank to an authorized Aqua Hot dealer. So I contacted Newell and had them do the job. $5,000 to replace the tank, parts and labor. The tank was $2,700. My coach was about 10 years old at the time.
