    No hot water

    Don't have the model right off hand but I drained the WH and NO impurities came out - just plain, clean water. I'm new to this and was thinking the anode rod was shot. But it has no anode rod. What other apparatus would cause the problem? What's an estimated cost on a repair? Thx a mil!
