CrispyBones-
For a decade or more there have been three major manufacturers for water heaters:
Atwood
Dometic
Suburban
Dometic bought Atwood's water heater line a few years ago and has since discontinued it in favor of their own. I think your Minnie is too new to have an Atwood, so it's likely either a Dometic or a Suburban.
If you should find a label on the exterior of the water heater listing the make and model please share that with us. We can give better advice with that info.
Here are the rules-of-thumb on anode rods:
1) If the water heater is a Suburban with a porcelain-lined steel tank, it requires an anode rod.
2) If the water heater is an Atwood with an aluminum tank, it does not require an anode rod.
The Dometic WH-6GEA installation and maintenance manual (link
here) omits any mention of an anode rod. One could assume from that that an anode rod is not required. Assumptions being what they are ...
The Dometic WH-6GEA uses a female plastic (probably nylon) drain cap, part number 92102 (pack of two). This appears to confirm it's a Dometic water heater (both the Suburban and Atwood use male anodes or plugs, respectively). A link to one supplier offering part 92102 is
here. By the way, you should be sure to use the manufacturer's cap; they choose its design and material for water heater safety. Keep a spare on hand.
Dometic documents for the WH-6GEA , including a
parts list, are available online at this
link.
Note: This won't interest you if your Minnie does have a Dometic. For others who come across this thread, it could be helpful. There are many RVs with Atwood six-gallon water heaters. The Dometic is not the same shape as the discontinued Atwood. Neither is the Suburban. Both Dometic and Suburban "standard" products require some rework on the opening and the door to replace an Atwood. Seeing an opportunity to take business from Dometic, Suburban has added a same-size-and-shape-as-Atwood replacement to their product line. It's listed as the "Suburban Advantage Direct Fit" model number SAW6D (link
here).
