  • Features
  • Includes
  • Intelligent control logic - The internal microprocessor provides enhanced operating parameters and tighter differentials for precise sensing and faster heating response to optimize performance
  • Uses a thermopile to generate the power needed to operate the electronic gas control without requiring an external power source
  • The electronic gas control incorporates and LED status indicator that monitors system operation and service diagnostics
  • DynaClean™ diffuser dip tube - Reduces lime and sediment buildup and maximizes hot water output
  • Made from long-lasting PEX cross-linked polymer
  • Green Choice® gas burner - Patented eco-friendly burner design reduces NOx emissions by up to 33% and complies with Low-NOx emission requirements of less than 40 ng/J
  • Coregard™ anode rod - Our anode rods have a stainless steel core that extends the life of the anode rod allowing superior tank protection far longer than standard anode rod
  • ProLine® master products have increased anode protection with either longer or multiple anodes depending on model
  • Push button piezo igniter makes lighting the pilot fast and easy with one hand
