- ENERGY STAR® certified - Up to 96% thermal efficiency dramatically lowers operating costs
- Intelligent Demand Response control system senses large water draws and automatically adjusts the differential setpoint, increasing the hot water available when it is needed the most
- Submerged combustion chamber, with helical heat exchanger, positioned in center of tank, surrounded by water to virtually eliminate radiant heat loss from chamber
- iCOMM™ remote monitoring provides detailed diagnostic fault notifications and control of the set point and differential using the free A.O. Smith app
- Mechanical venting versatility with convention power venting or direct venting vertically or through side wall with low cost PVC Schedule 40 intake and exhaust pipe
- Direct-vent intake and exhaust pipe can terminate separately outside building or through single opening, using concentric vent assembly
- High efficiency modulating down-fired pre-mix burner provides optimum efficiency and quiet operation
- Permaglas® Ultra Coat™ glass lining coating is applied using a liquid slush coating technique to ensure uniform coating
- 5-year limited tank and 1-year limited parts warranty
The Cyclone® LV (Large Volume) provides a significant amount storage which can eliminate the need for multiple tanks, saving space. It integrates the Cyclone helical coil heat exchanger into a large ASME-certified storage tank with capacity to 250-gallons. Models are available from 150,000 to 500,000 Btu/h and deliver thermal efficiencies to 96%. The modulating burner adjusts the firing rate to the specific demand,further increasing efficiency and energy cost savings. Cyclone LV is ideal for any commercial application with short period peak demand such as hotels, arenas, convention centers and schools. Cyclone is the industry leader in high efficiency commercial water heating. Cyclone LV modulating models adjust firing rate to the specific demand further increasing efficiency and money savings. BTHL-150A uses up to 150,000 BTU/h of gas to deliver 175 GPH at 100°F rise. A. O. Smith offers the largest commercial product selection available, including the most specified commercial unit in the U.S. We offer more than 500 different commercial models, including gas fired, oil-fired and electric configurations, ranging in capacities from 5 to 10,000 gallons, with input range from 50,000 BTU to the equivalent of 4,000,000 BTU. Our comprehensive line is the natural fit for spec jobs requiring everything from the smallest commercial installation up to the largest multi-structure complex.
