The A.O. Smith Advantage

Beginning Another Half Century of Industry Leadership...

A.O. Smith Master-Fit® commercial gas water heaters have always provided maximum installation flexibility for both new construction and replacement applications. Now, Master-Fit offers The Eliminator™, for automatic self-cleaning protection against build-up of lime and other sediments.

As deposits of lime and other sediments accumulate inside the tank, they form a barrier between the burner and the water, and concentrate heat around the critical weld areas. The result is reduced energy-efficiency, higher operating costs, and a greater risk of premature tank leaks.

The Eliminator™ directs incoming cold water under pressure to sweep the bottom of the tank, to keep sediment moving so it doesn't accumulate.

With The Eliminator™, every Master-Fit water heater can be expected to maintain its rated efficiency longer, and deliver year after year of reliable service.

PermaGlas® Ultra Coat™ Glass Coating

Nothing protects like it, and nobody offers it but A.O. Smith. PermaGlas® Ultra Coat™ is an exclusive "slush coat" process that heat-bonds glass to each tank's inner surface after all connections and seams have been welded. Because it's a slush coat process instead of a spray-on coating, PermaGlas® Ultra Coat™ covers and protects better.

 

And because A.O. Smith PermaGlas® Ultra Coat™ is applied after the tank is welded, there is no chance of "weld burn" that can burn away normal glasslining and expose bare steel to water.

The inside of the Cyclone XHE® heat exchanger is protected against corrosive flue gas condensate by PermaGlas® Ultra Coat™.

 

PermaGlas® Ultra Coat™ provides superior protection for the tank's top, bottom, outer shell, and all weld seams.
