Key Features
Note:
A. O. Smith reserves the right to amend or modify the specifications and features at
any time, as and when required without any prior notification.
Blue Diamond® Glass Lining
Blue Diamond® technology increases the life of the inner tank.
The lining is stronger and twice corrosion resistant than any other
in the industry.
Long Lasting Glass Coated Heating Element
Scale and sediment build-up on the surface of the element can
lead to premature failure. A. O. Smith Glass Coating helps to
prevent scale formation and extends the life of the Heating
Element.
Hi-Tech Thermostat & Cut-out
This Water Heater comes with factory pre-set temperature. It has a
superior Thermostat. In case a fault occurs and the water
temperature exceeds the preset level, the thermal cut-out cuts off
the power supply to assure safety.
Multi-function Safety Valve
The Multi-function Safety Valve is designed to automatically
relieve pressure and discharge water in case the pressure
overshoots the preset limits.
Long-lasting Anode Rod
A customised alloy that works in different Water Conditions,
protects the tank and heating element from corrosion, has twice
the lifespan compared to a regular magnesium anode.
