Adapt™+ Premium Condensing

State’s ADAPT™+ Premium condensing gas tankless water heaters are available in 180k and 199k BTU/Hr capacities, deliver powerful, on-demand hot water and flexible installation options for nearly any residential application. Two model types are available: versions with integrated X3® Scale Prevention Technology and Bypass (M) models. Scale prevention can be easily added to any M model by replacing the bypass cartridge with an optional X3 cartridge, sold separately. State’s X3 Technology helps extend the life of the heat exchanger by up to three times compared to standard tankless units, while preserving peak performance.
The ADAPT™+ Premium series have integrated recirculation pumps and a built-in control display that allows users to set and monitor up to two recirculation schedules, view heater status, and access error codes. Temperature settings and remote activation of the heater and recirculation system can be managed using optional remote kits, sold separately. All models are ENERGY STAR® certified, highly efficient with a Uniform Energy Factor (UEF) of 0.95, and meet Ultra-Low NOx emission standards.
All ADAPT™+ Premium water heaters are field-convertible from natural gas to liquid propane with a conversion kit included, and can be installed indoors or outdoors with the addition of an Outdoor Vent Cap Kit (sold separately). For higher-demand applications, up to 12 units can be cascaded together, cascade cable included.

How it works

When a water tap is opened, cold water enters the tankless unit and passes through State’s X3® Scale Prevention cartridge, which prevents minerals from bonding and forming scale.
This advanced design allows mineral particles to flow safely through the system, eliminating the need for routine descaling and extends the life of the water heater by up to three times compared to conventional tankless models.
After treatment, the water flows through a primary heat exchanger where it is quickly heated. State’s condensing tankless water heaters provide endless hot water on demand, save valuable space, and operate only when needed, minimizing energy consumption.
Backed by a 15-year limited warranty, these water heaters are engineered for long-term performance, reduced maintenance, and reliable comfort. With X3-equipped models, there are no hard water exclusions in the warranty.
Still Have Questions?
Tankless water heaters offer the option of venting through an exterior side wall instead of through a chimney flue on the roof. Water heaters that are direct venting have two vents — one that pulls in air from the outside and one that carries away exhaust. Power venting water heaters draw air from inside the room and have only a single vent for exhaust. While non-condensing tankless water heaters require thick metal venting to handle the temperature of heat that's released, condensing tankless water heaters can use plastic venting such as PVC. They have already used the hot vapors to heat more water, leaving only cooler fumes for ventilation.
State tankless water heaters boast industry-leading 15 year limited warranties. While the lifespan of a gas tankless water heater can vary, factors like water conditions, usage rates and maintenance all contribute to your water heater’s health. New condensing units come equipped with X3® Scale Reduction Technology that extends life up to three times longer.
Tankless water heaters have different flow rates measured in gallons per minute (GPM), which indicate the amount of water they can deliver at a time. Because these water heaters don't maintain a supply of hot water in a tank, you need to choose an appropriately sized tankless model based on household needs. The ideal output rate for your home depends on the number of people in the residence, the appliances you use, and the original temperature of the water being heated. Some people install more than one tankless water heater based on their requirements. Check out our water heater selector to help choose the best water heater for your needs.
- What do I need?
- Before installation, you will need to determine the incoming ground water temperature, the ideal location in your home, and the correct water heater size required for your needs.
- Where to install?
- A tankless water heater can be installed anywhere in your home with the correct piping—closets, garage, bathrooms, etc. In warmer climates where there is no risk of freezing, a tankless water heater may be installed on the exterior of the home to save on interior space.
