What it is

The Vaillant 0020177968 is an anode for Vaillant hot water cylinders. It is a sacrificial component fitted inside the cylinder to protect the steel vessel from corrosion. Over time the anode is consumed instead of the cylinder wall, so it forms part of the cylinder's long-term protection.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Rumbling, knocking or popping noises from the cylinder during heating
  • Rust-coloured staining or discoloured hot water at the taps
  • A metallic taste in the hot water supply
  • The anode is visibly heavily corroded or largely consumed when inspected
  • The cylinder is approaching or has passed the recommended anode inspection interval

Before you order

  • Check the cylinder model and serial plate against the fitment list above
  • Confirm the cylinder is a Vaillant VIH or Aurostor unit of the stated model
  • Verify the existing anode type and thread before removal, as access varies by installation
  • Consult the manufacturer's parts list if your model is not listed
