Key Features
Glass Coated Element
Scale and sediment build up on the surface of standard elements lead to premature
failure. An A. O. Smith glass coated element helps to prevent scale formation on the
element, extending the life of the element.
Blue Diamond Glass Lining
A. O. Smith water heaters come with special glass lined inner containers. This lining is
achieved through a specialized fusion process carried out at 870ºC. Inner tanks are
designed to pass the 100,000 cycle fatigue life test in accordance with relevant UL
(Underwriters’ Laboratories) Standards. This makes our tanks one of the best inner
containers, resistant to rust and scaling.
Anode Rod Protection
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, prolonging the life of the water heater.
Safety Valve
This water heater has a pressure safety valve. This valve is designed to automatically
relieve and discharge water in case the pressure or temperature exceeds the preset
limits.
Thermal Cut Out
The water heater employs a thermal cut out. In case any fault occurs and the water
temperature exceeds the highest preset temperature (93°C), the switch rapidly cuts off the
live and neutral line for user’s safety.
