Key Features
Glass Coated Element reduces electricity bills and increases the life of the heating element
Scale and sediment build up on the surface of standard elements leading to higher
electricity bills and premature failure. An A. O. Smith Glass Coated Element helps to
prevent scale formation on the element reducing your electricity bill and extending
the life of the element.
Blue Diamond Glass Lining offers the best protection against tank corrosion
The new Blue Diamond technology with enhanced levels of zircon increases the life of
the water heater. The lining is proven to be stronger and more water-resistant than
any other in the industry.
Anode Rod protects the tank from corrosion
The tank has an anode rod system with a stainless-core that is designed to protect the
tank from corrosive elements. The system uses a special cathodic action to fight the
corrosive elements which in turn prolongs the life of the water heater.
Safety Valve discharges water in case pressure or temperature exceeds preset limits
This water heater has a temperature and pressure safety valve. This valve is designed
to automatically relieve and discharge water incase the pressure or temperature
overshoots the preset limits.
Thermal Cutout cuts off live line and zero line, in case of fault, ensuring safety
The breaker rapidly cuts off live line and zero line simultaneously to guarantee safety,
in case the water heater happens to be faulty and water temperature exceeds the
highest temperature preset in the thermostat.
