Whirlpool / water heater

Whirlpool / water heater

Bought this water heater about 1 1/2 years ago ever since then I had problems with air in the tank. Up until a few months ago Whirlpool didn't have an answer to the problem. Then I head they found out why this is happening it has to do with the anode rod. They said if I want it I have to pay $37.95 plus shipping. If this was the problem all the while why should I pay for the part?

They said it is not cover under the warranty, because it is my water that is causing it. They should adjust the item that they are making to fit the area and not charge you more money because you are living in that area.
