Electronic Gas Control

Intelligent control logic provides enhanced operating parameters and tighter differentials for precise sensing and faster heating response to optimize performance.

Powered Anode Rod

Powered anodes are non-sacrificial, so they do not deplete over time. Additionally, they provide exceptional performance in all water conditions.

Brass Drain Valve

• Solid brass, tamper resistant, enhanced-flow, ball type, valve.

• Uses a standard female hose fitting that allows for fast and easy draining during maintenance.

• Screwdriver slot features a 1/4 turn radius, for straight-through water flow and a quick and positive shut off.

DynaClean™ Diffuser Dip Tube

Thanks to the improved technology, the inlet tube features water jets that redirect incoming cold water into the tank, creating turbulence, which helps reduce lime build-up, therefore maintaining heater efficiency.
