PRESSURIZED COMBUSTION SYSTEM• Exclusive and patented pressurized combustion chamber with an advanced

air intake blower delivers superior efficiency. Much like a turbocharger, the blower distributes an optimum air-to-gas mixture pushing exhaust gases through the highly restricted flue baffle. The end result is the most efficient atmospheric gas product on the market with a .70 Energy Factor (EF).

INSTALLATION FRIENDLY• Allows for easy replacement of standard atmospheric vent heaters.• Easily connects to existing B-vent.

FAN-ASSISTED, CATEGORY 1 APPLIANCE

24V ELECTRONIC CONTROLS• Tighter differential for more consistent hot water delivery.

ELECTRONIC IGNITION• The durable hot surface ignitor eliminates pilot relight issues (no standing pilot).

LCD USER INTERFACE• Easy-to-read, eye level display. Simple temperature settings and adjustments. Service

diagnostics are in plain text.

POWERED ANODE ROD• Powered anodes are non-sacrificial, so they do not deplete over time. Additionally,

they provide exceptional performance in all water conditions.

MEETS ENERGY-EFFICIENCY REQUIREMENTS FOR MOST GAS UTILITY REBATE PROGRAMS, AND MEETS ENERGY STAR® REQUIREMENTS.

DURABLE TAMPER-RESISTANT BRASS DRAIN VALVE

DIFFUSER DIP TUBE• Helps reduce lime and sediment buildup, maximizes hot water output. • Made from long-lasting PEX cross-linked polymer.

GREEN CHOICE® GAS BURNER• Patented “Eco-Friendly” Green Choice® gas burner reduces NOx emissions by 33%

compared to standard burners and meets low NOx requirements of less than 40ng/j.

CSA CERTIFIED AND ASME RATED T&P RELIEF VALVE

CODE COMPLIANCE: UBC, CEC, SBCC, CABO, HUD, BOCA NATIONAL CODES,CURRENT EDITION ASHRAE/IESNA 90.1 AND 2004 NAECA STANDARDS

DESIGN-CERTIFIED BY CSA INTERNATIONAL• According to ANSI Z21.10.1 - 4.1 CSA Standards governing storage-type water heaters.

Residential gas water heater(s) shall be models ____________ as manufactured by American Water Heaters, or an approved equal, and shall have a ______ -year tank warranty and a ______ -year parts warranty, when installed in a residential application. Heater(s) shall have a storage capacity of ______ gallons and shall have a rated input of __________ BTUs, and shall be designed, tested and listed with CSA International in accordance with the latest edition of ANSI Z21.10.1 - CSA4.1 standard. Heaters shall meet or exceed the Federal Energy Efficiency Standards effective January 20, 2004, according to the National Appliance Energy Conservation Act (NAECA) of 1992. The interior of the storage tank shall be lined with a Fused Ceramic Shield lining, fused to the tank at 1600° F, forming a corrosion-resistant lining; polymer linings are not acceptable. Each tank shall be furnished with an internal powered anode for cathodic protection. The unit must be equipped with a combination gas control thermostat and non-reset type ECO. A corrosion-resistant drain valve shall be provided on the front of each unit. The tank shall be totally encased in a steel jacket, painted and insulated with a non-CFC foam to reduce standby heat loss. The tank must be design certified for 300 PSI test pressure and 150 working pressure.

How Does it Work?• Absorbs ambient heat from the surrounding air to heat water using a compressor and environmentally friendly R134a refrigerant – Self-contained heat pump unit is integrated into the top of the tank – Multiple modes of operation allow flexibility for different hot water needs

Qualifies for 2010 federal Tax CrediT of up To $1,500

FEATURESIncreased Storage Enhances Efficiency• The high capacity tank enables the heat pump to operate more frequently instead of the

elements. This provides higher energy efficiency and lower operating costs, saving money for the home-owner

• Additional storage facilitates heat pump performance even in cooler climates

Energy Efficiency• 2.3 Energy Factor conserves energy and meets ENERGY STAR® requirements

Choice of Operating Modes• Select from Efficiency, Hybrid, or conventional Electric modes to match heating

requirements to environmental conditions. Hybrid mode automatically adjusts between compressor and element, depending upon heat requirements. Vacation mode protects system components from freeze damage

Backup Electric Elements• Long-lasting incoloy heating elements, 240V/2000W lower and 240V/4500W upper, helps

heat water when in conventional Electric or Hybrid modes

Electronic User Interface• User friendly electronic control module designed for easy interaction• Large LCD temperature display (see back) shows temperature in °F or °C, operating

conditions, and service messages in easy to read format• Backlit mode buttons, safety lock to deter unwanted access and three-line display

communicates current status and error messages when applicable

Powered Anode• A powered anode is installed to protect the tank from corrosion and eliminate the

service requirements of a conventional anode rod

Dehumidification• Ideal for basements, the compressor transfers heat to your water while dehumidifying

the ambient air• Washable heat pump filter is easily removed for routine cleaning

The Hybrid Electric heat pump water heater from American is the most versatile, energy efficient option for the consumer who is looking to go green, providing the same amount of hot water as a conventional electric water heater at half the cost.
