This hot water tank shares many of the same features as its electric version, without the need for electricity. The Vitraglas* inner lining is designed to protect the tank from erosion while the Hydrojet Total Performance system reduces sediment build up and increases first hour hot water delivery to minimize temperature build up in the tank. As this hot water tank has no flue damper and a built in ignition system, it does not require electricity to operate. The LED display allows for easy maintenance and troubleshooting during the installation process and is a convenient addition to the pilot light viewing window so you can easily see your pilot light is lit and the system is operating properly. It also has a tamper proof brass drain valve and flame arrest safety feature to prevent the ignition of flammable vapours outside of the tank. For a full list of product features click here
