Universal Gas Commercial Water Heaters Available in Sizes Ranging From 35 - 100 Gallon Tank-Type Models  98,000 BTU/Hr. thru 400,000 BTU/Hr. Universal Gas Commercial Water Heaters are specifically designed to minimize the difficulty of replacing failed water heaters and are versatile for new installations. These products are designed for applications requiring large quantities of hot water. Construction Features: • Universal tank design – maximizes installation adaptability by offering models with Top, Front Side and Rear Side Inlet/Outlet water connections. • Universal space saver design – short heights and small jacket diameters result in greater installation flexibility. • Patented multi-flue tank design – proprietary steel formulation, patented multi-flue design, and two coats of high temperature porcelain enamel to maximize corrosion resistance result in a superior heat exchanger design. • Low profile automatic flue damper – low profile design minimizes over- all product height. New heavy duty vent hood supports are designed to withstand rigors of installation. • Spark-To-Pilot ignition system – standard on all models. Provides reliable and energy saving ignition sequencing by igniting the pilot only when the thermostat calls for heat. • System Sentinel™LED diagnostic system – our exclusive diagnostic system, with glowing LED lights, verifies system operation sequence by sequence. • Full port, full flow brass drain valve Certifications and Ratings: • Efficiency – these models have been tested according to ANSI test procedures, and meet or exceed the thermal efficiency and standby loss requirements of current ASHRAE standard (Part of the Federally mandated Energy Policy Act (EPact)). Also exceeds energy efficiency codes of all states including California Energy Commission (CEC). • Safety and construction – these products are design certified by the CSA: a) For operation at 180°F. b) To meet all safety and construction requirements of ANSI Z21.10.3. c) As an automatic storage or instanta- neous water heater. d) As an automatic circulating tank water heater. e) For operation on combustible floors and in alcove installations. All models are North Carolina Code compliant. CERTIFIED FOR A 150 PSI MAXIMUM WORKING PRESSURE (160 PSI FOR ASME MODELS). • Optional constructions – ASME construction is available on designated models. UL Sanitation (NSF5) compliant models are available when equipped with optional leg kit. (Part No. AE35450) Continued next page.
